Traveler reviews
Gary was a fantastic...
Gary was a fantastic guide. Not knowing what to expect, the day proved to be amazing. A lot of walking but well worth it.
Harry was wonderful!
It was a long but enjoyable day. Harry was a wonderful guide. I really enjoyed his company. He is very knowledgeable and has a nice manner with telling the stories and history of Scotland.
Perfect day into history
Fantastic day at archeological sites, in the footsteps of ancestors from millennia ago. Billy was a great guide. We highly recommend this day.
Great tour of a beautiful area of Scotland
I had a wonderful time on this tour with Chris and Maggie (hope I remember your name correctly!). Chris is well informed and enthusiastic about the history of the area. He walked with us and pointed out items of interest. We also had time to explore on our own and had plenty of time to see major points of interest as well as the museum in Kilmartin. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in beautiful scenery and the history of ancient history. It is a truly remarkable area.
Wonderful day exploring Kilmartin Glen with Colin and Kieran
My dad and I had a wonderful and fun day on the Kilmartin Glen tour with Colin, Kieran and our fellow travellers. The drive up to Dunadd Fort and Kilmartin Glen was very picturesque with lovely photo stops on way, and we had plenty of time to explore the fort, standing stones, museum + the rock carvings at Achnabreck. On the way back, we had a break in Inveraray, which is always a treat (we’re tour veterans by now!). Lots of laughs on the bus, so I’m sure we’ll have fond memories of this day for a long time to come. Would happily book with Discover Scotland again. P.S.: don’t forget to look up the Claudia Winkleman gravy granules story, Kieran ;-)
