Recomnend this Picturesque tour with Ryan - We thoroughly enjoyed this tour of stunning coastal cities. We had ample time to explore and shop in St. Andrews. We couldn't ask for a better tour guide than Ryan. In addition to being an excellent driver, he was very knowledgeable about both Scottish history and the history of each village and town. He also kept us laughing throughout the day.

Paul is the best! - Paul Santa was a wonderful guide! Funny, informative, and a great driver, he took us to seceral villages, including St Andrew’s, and we thoroughly enjoyed our day! He drove us across the Old Course in St Andrews, which my golfer husband loved. Plenty of time to see everything we wanted to see. A beautiful day of weather as well!

St Andrews from Edinborough - We did the St Andrews tour from Edinburgh with Jim and Ewan as our guides. The tour was great as we stopped at four small waterside villages for a coffee or a beer and did a nice drive-thru of St Andrews (including eight across the 18th fairway while golfers played on either side). We enjoyed a great meal at the restaurant right on the course. We walked down to the old cathedral which was quite impressive. Jim was extremely informative and entertaining, while Ewan seemed like a good friend by the time the tour ended. Ewan will be a fantastic primary tour guide, and we recommend this tour and these guides as strongly as we can. Thank you!!

Great day trip from Edinburgh - Small group in a van with an excellent driver/guide. Thus was a great way to see the countryside and let someone else do the driving. Several stops along the journey and delightful commentary from the guide. Once you reach a town you are left on your own to explore or just relax in a pub.
