David was an excellent driver and guide who cheerfully offered tidbits of accurate historical background, as well as filmmaking trivia related to Outlander, Game of Thrones, James Bond, Monty Python, Downton Abbey and other movies and television series that were filmed in areas of Scotland. Even though this was technically an "Outlander" tour, he was well versed in everything else you could think of, including one of my favorites: Doctor Who! He answered all my random questions about sites we passed and offered stories about others that I didn't even know existed. He told me about natural geological features of the land and even explained some of the cultural differences between Highland and Lowland Scots. David knows the best routes to get to each location, where the entrances are, and where the ticket offices are located (if they're separate from the entrances). He makes sure you see him when you come out, so you don't need to worry about wandering around looking for him when you've finished looking at a site. I highly recommend this private tour service! It's so much more personalized and efficient than group tours and coaches!

Es hat fast alles gut geklappt. Bis auf eine Sehenswürdigkeit bei der wir nicht mehr reinkommen durften. Wir waren zwR 10.min vor Schluss da um Tickets zu kaufen aber unser guide musste zu lange anstehen.
