Elderly solo traveller

Elderly solo traveller and my first time booking a vacation like this with just the tour guide for company conversation and information Fast forward 5 days and I now would not have it any other way Paul was an enthusiastic driver and we hit it off from the get go Our trip was out of season but this was what I wanted no crowds or queueing for anything I wanted to see Edinburgh Castle Stirling Castle Loch Lomond and the stunning mountains of Glencoe were probably my highlights but there were so many Haggis took some getting used to but washing it down with a dram worked a treat Top Scottish Tours Paul and Scotland thank you for everything

Truly the top tours

I had the absolute joy of taking a tour with Paul and it remains the highlight of any travel experience Because the tours are kept small it felt like an epic road trip with friends more than anything We got a taste of so much of the Highlands learned a lot about the culture and history of the region thanks to Paul s expertise and had a custom experience that absolutely cannot be rivalled I m already planning my next trip with Paul Cannot recommend this company enough

What a fantasic day we had

What a fantasic day we had Paul was a great host and very knowledgeable He picked myself and my wife up from cruise ship was punctual and friendly We enjoyed a wonderful day seeing Loch Lomond and Glasgow Would highly recommend his services

Our day in Scotland with Paul was the

Our day in Scotland with Paul was the highlight of our cruise vacation He was punctual and knowledgeable from the moment he picked us up Despite quite rainy weather Paul made sure we had a great touring day to Loch Lomand surrounding areas and Glasgow Within just a few hours my husband and I felt like we and Paul were old friends I can t recommend Paul and his company more highly We look forward to our next tour adventure with Paul in the future

An amazing experience

An amazing experience Paul went above and beyond in organising our trip ensuring every detail was perfect for our whiskey tasting in Islay From start to finish he took care of us ensuring everything ran smoothly and on time His knowledge and pleasant demeanor made working with him a delight We will definitely contact Top Scottish Tours again

Highly recommend Top Scottish Tours

We found Top Scottish Tours through Scotland s tourism website We sent an inquiry through the website We received a nice e-mail response from Paul After trading a couple of e-mails we took his recommendation of speaking with him over the phone through WhatsApp The phone conversation went very well and was much more efficient Paul asked questions about our expectations and offered suggestions He then prepared and sent us an itinerary We reviewed the itinerary and had another telephone conversation about some questions we had Paul made a couple of changes and sent us an updated itinerary which looked really good This was our second of two tours in Scotland Our first was a horseback ride tour over several days At the end of the horseback tour Paul picked us up from the stables We were impressed and grateful We really did not want to rent a car and then drive We were interested in learning about Scotland s history but not as if we were preparing for a test Paul deftly drove us to our various destinations while dispensing information about Scotland s history We discovered that he has a wonderful sense of humor We traded quips observations and stories We liked the hotels that Paul chose for us He always interacted with hotel staff to make sure our room was ready before we entered with our luggage We appreciated his restaurant recommendations A couple of minor adjustments had to be made to the itinerary during our tour Because we had been on a horseback ride for several days we really needed our clothes washed Paul found a laundry that would wash dry and fold our clothes without interrupting the day s planned activities While trading stories and laughs we discussed fly fishing Paul somehow located a fantastic fishing and sporting goods store We spent some time happily browsing the small and delightfully stocked store and were very pleased with our purchases We were shown many wonderful sights Paul also booked for us tours of castles distilleries and a depiction of life in Scotland over many centuries We were most pleased with Top Scottish Tours Paul is not only a consummate professional - we felt we were touring Scotland with a friend

Great company - very knowledgeable and accommodating

We were on holiday on Islay for the scotch festival Paul was very knowledgeable about Islay and Scotland and made our trip fun and memorable I would recommend Top Scottish Tours to everyone

Really wonderful tour

Really wonderful tour From the first communication we felt well cared for I can recommend this company and tour without reservation I plan to use them again when we are next in Scotland

Off to Stirling

We were a group of 4 for our tour to Stirling Castle et al The van provided was roomy and comfortable Brian was our driver for the day and he was superb It started a bit rocky with him being delayed because of a wreck on the highway but he and the company made up for not in several ways We got to do everything we wanted to on the day Brain stayed later than was scheduled so we could enjoy our tour We got to see the Wallace Memorial Bannockburn the Old Bridge and Stirling Castle We could not have asked for a better guide and tour Thanks Paul and Brian for providing us a wonderful experience
