Our family based our beautiful stay in Scotland in Glasgow however we decided on a private day tour of Edinburgh. We booked Aura Journeys Glasgow, the booking process was first class. Our driver Gerry was punctual we received SMS notification of his location on route and his arrival at our hotel. He was extremely well presented and the vehicle was a exclusive Mercedes sedan with luxury interior and bottled water. The drive through to Edinburgh was great fun speaking about local culture and sport. We visited Rosslyn Chapel, Royal Yacht Britania and Calton Hill not to mention the Castle. We could have traveled by train but would have missed out on amazing locations that are situated out with the centre of town. Gerry provided a fantastic day for us and we will certainly recommend Aura Journeys on our return to OZ.

This was a great tour. Gerry was amazing, he couldn’t have been more helpful, informative and friendly. I wish he could have done all our tours.

My son and I took two different tours on two different days with Aura. What a great company! Our fist day was Aura's Loch Lomond Tour with William. William was a informative, friendly and entertained us with stories and information. We managed to see Kelpies, Fall of Falloch and the spectacular Highlands scenery as we drove. We finished up with a visit to Hamish the Highland Bull. Day two was a bespoke tour to Deanston and Aberfeldy Distillery accompanied by Brian. Brian was equally as warm and knowledgeable as William. He was a great guide, full of interesting details about the area I highly recommend Aura Tours-you will not be disappointed!

I cannot say enough about the great job and great folks at Aura Journeys. While on our Brittish Isle cruise we booked a private car in Edinburgh. Cruises are a fantastic way to travel, to see a lot of cities. But time is limited in each port. And Edinburgh was no different. Seeing St. Andrew's was a must, but so were the many other things to do back in Edinburgh. So we communicated back and forth with William at Aura Journeys to secure details. We often seek out things to do that don't necessarily fit the norm. So, while still on the cruise and with Edinburgh still 3 days out, we were unprepared for our port of call in Greenock/Glaskow. A failure on our part. I could not find anything on Viator that might fit our needs. All sold out. I sent an email to William at Aura Journeys and he put a call out to his team. Gerry cancelled his golf game ( on a beautiful day by the way) and agreed to be our tour guide driver for the day. Within a minute of meeting Gerry at the Greenock cruise terminal I knew it was going to be a great day. We had so much fun because not only of where Gerrry took us, but the improvised side trips we took. We did not want to see the distillery so we didn't, we spent just a little time at the Stirling castle which was great for us. We found a great Antique Market which my wife loved. And while my wife was antique shopping Gerrry and I talked golf, politics, and everything in between. We all laughed so much, and Gerry's personality was so genuinely warm. Of all the great drivers we have had, Gerry is probably the best. Gerry sent William a lot of txts about what he felt our likes and dislikes were and other information that will make our Edinburgh tour with William in two days time even more valuable and enjoyable. I want to personally thank Gerry and I am sure William will welcome us just as warmly as did Gerry. Kudos to Aura Journeys !!

Having enjoyed dozens of private tours in countries throughout the world from Turkey to Italy and Viet Nam to Columbia, this is the only time we've felt inclined to leave a negative review. Why? In an attempt to be open with the tour provider, Aura Journeys, we communicated directly with them after the less than stellar tour and had the gaul to ask for a refund of some of the money paid. I wanted to be open and honest before leaving a negative review and give them a chance to respond in an appropriate manner if the guides were new, were having a bad day, had extenuating circumstances, etc... I expected a "Thanks for the feedback, but there will be no refund." Instead, I got a you're wrong. The tour was fine. Your expectations are absurd. We'll fight you if you give us a bad review. Hmmm... So, here goes... If you're looking for a good driver to take you to designated spots in Edinburgh and its environs along with a second nice gentleman to accompany you, then this tour might be for you. We weren't. We were looking for a tour by locals who could provide insight into the culture and history of Scotland along with some interesting anecdotes along the way. We had a car and driver, so we didn't need to pay nearly $1500 for a chauffeur and walking companion. Maybe this was "my bad" since everywhere else I've ever been on a private tour, the driver and guide had interesting insights and things to tell us about what we were seeing. I realize the guide wasn't "licensed", but I thought he'd still know and share a little about the area. He had nothing to share more than what the signs said. For instance, the only thing he told us as we reached John Knox's house was that it was John Knox's house. He didn't know how the ticketing process at Edinburgh Castle worked and simply walked with us down the Royal Mile without any stories, etc... Again, if you're looking more for a chauffeur and companion, you'll probably love these guys. If not, you won't. And for the love of all that's good in this world, save yourself the bother of trying to interact with Aura Journeys if you have any feedback of the negative variety. It'll only make a bad situation worse.

Excelent tour, highly recommended, we visited Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Boat, Roslyn Chapel (a must)

We enjoyed William and the sights of Edinburgh but we were under the assumption that we would have a driver and a guide. Without William, as the driver, accessing some of the sights with us, we had to rely on our own interpretations of those sight. Wonderful experience, wonderful country, but the guided portion was not what we were expecting ... especially after our other Viator tours we experienced. Thank you!
