Edinburgh Day trips

I traveled alone on a day trip to Glenfinnan, Glencoe, and the Scottish Highlands. It was a very enjoyable experience—joining a group tour provided a comfortable journey, a professional driver, and informative introductions about the history of each stop. I truly appreciated the experience, and it has become an unforgettable part of my solo trip. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone traveling alone.

The arrangements were nearly perfect. Originally, we had difficulty getting entry tickets to Edinburgh Castle on their official website. While most travel agencies no longer have tickets for the day, we managed to get ours on Klook. The QR code was issued in less than a minute. The waiting place was convenient and the tour guide, Ignas, was easily identifiable. Yet, Ignas spoke with a very strong Scottish accent, which made it not always easy to follow. So, although he was very knowledgeable and helpful, the details of the description were not always fully understood. Nevertheless, the view at and from the castle was magnificent. Even though the path looked very steep and far from the city centre, it wasn’t difficult to get there. The rooms were definitely worth visiting. The souvenir shop also sold gifts that were exclusive to the castle. we also met the Queen and King James for a lovely photo. I would definitely recommend this visit.

my guide and driver for the day was Keith (09 May 26). I chooses the lochness and highlands tour . the drive was very informative and educational, I am able to appreciate the history of Scotland and the highlands . The areas that we went to and nature was beautiful too. The drive felt safe and I was also able to appreciate the scenery along the way .

The Old Town and Underground Ghost Tour in Edinburgh was a really enjoyable experience, mainly because of the tour guide, James Douglas. He was extremely active, social, funny, and knew exactly how to keep everyone engaged. His sense of humor made the time fly by. Honestly, during all my travels, I have never had a tour guide this entertaining and energetic. He was genuinely very good at what he does, and it made the whole experience much better. I was expecting a little more from the tour itself besides walking around the city and visiting the underground tunnel area, but I still learned a lot about Edinburgh’s history and its magnificent architecture. Big thanks to James Douglas for the wonderful time and positive energy throughout the tour. Definitely one of the most memorable guides I’ve had during my travels.

A delightful tour, long but not tiring or boring. All locations were managed according to plan, and we even had an extra visit at the end to see the Hairy Coos again, as we were too busy shopping to take photos at the beginning of the tour. The price was quite competitive, and the tour team was professional. A good experience.

it was an amazing tour. David was a fantastic guide with good knowledge of the locations. He also share some history.

Super trip. We where lucky there was nice weather. The cruise on Loch Lomond is dfinitly also worce your while.

Compliments to our driver/guide Kevin for a safe drive and highly entertaining day. His experience and familiarity of the roads allowed many more photo stops than anticipated. Thank you for the wonderful memories, Kevin. It felt warm to be back despite the cold…

Charlie took us out for the day on the Jacobite Steam Train & Scottish Highlands Guoded Tour. She was an great host, keeping us entertained with history, stories and dad jokes all day. We were so happy to see we had the steam locomotive for our trip as we'd heard it ran with vintage diesel the day before.
