Amazing tour!!
Eireann was truly the best tour guide we could’ve asked for! My fiancée and I booked a day tour from Glasgow on our last day visiting Scotland from Canada, and we ended up being the only 2 on the tour! Eireann was around our age and we honestly just had the greatest day talking about Outlander, our respective Scottish heritages, and the beautiful sites. She was punctual and a safe driver, and answered all of our questions. Thank you for the highlight of our trip!!
Great way to explore outside of Glasgow!
A good day trip out of Glasgow and way to see a bunch of different places in a short amount of time. Alex was our guide and was full of historical information about Glasgow and Scotland. Plus we got to try the original recipe of Irn Bru! We purchased admission/tickets to the castles and the boat tour while booking which made arriving to the destinations easy. You can always buy them the day of if you want too. I'm an Outlander fan so it was pretty cool to check out Midhope Castle (aka Lallybroch) but there's not much to do there/check out except for some props and info of when the show filmed there. The van was comfortable with a total of 9 in our group so there was plenty of space. I will say that depending on who else is in the group kind of impacts how the overall experience is going to be like so hopefully you have some fun folks in your group.
Fun
Alex made the trip so fun and he even knows how to make magic
