My guide was Lauren M. She was knowledgeable, friendly and very enthusiastic. It's obvious she loves her country and job as a guide. Highly recommend your company and her as well.

Laura did a good job. Unfortunately for the 4 passengers in the rear of the van, she didn’t have a microphone so it was very difficult for them to be involved with her and the other passengers.

James_L

Stirling Castle was an outstanding excursion, full of history, spectacle. And interactive displays. Would have spent more time there if allowed. Be prepared to pay ticket fees there. Loch Lomond was lovely but very crowded. Glengoyne Distillery provided an interesting tour and tasting. Very nice, but also with a separate admission cost. Kudos to Lauren for driving us and two other couples plus providing some details about the three destinations. Unfortunately she was not in her regular van. The one we rode in needed suspension work and the A/C wasn’t strong enough for passengers in the back row. She also had no microphone, so it was often difficult to hear her. 5 stars for the tour, but dropped to 4 because of the vehicle.

Great day trip from Glasgow! Our guide Calum was knowledgeable and friendly, making the day as smooth as possible. I would've liked a bit more time at the castle, but didn't feel rushed.
