Good morning , My husband and I did the tour with Scozia tour . Unfortunately the tour was a deception to say the least. This was our 4 th tour and it was by far the most unorganized and disappointing. The bus came late while we rush to be there 15 min . The dunnottar castle was cancel due to the weather which I completely I understand. However what I don’t understand, is why bring us to DUNDEES For 45 min when everything was close …. Then again another 1 hr in stone heaven when everything there was close as well . We had to eat our lunch outside in the cold . No one told us that the bus would be divided into 2 languages.. the music in the bus was very annoying when songs are played several times and not even Scottish music ( like we are in Scotland ) and the end of the trip when we are all tired they stopped at the bridge for a 30 min pic .. I’m guessing they just wanted to make it 10 hrs even if it wasn’t fun. The tour guide are very serious . Wish we had a better experience.. I’m mad because I could have just rented a car and did it on my own. Glamis castle was beautiful so was the outside of The dunnottar castle ( worth visiting)

I due castelli visitati valgono il viaggio. Abbiamo partecipato insieme ad un gruppo spagnolo, ma Valeria è’ stata splendida nel metterci a proprio agio spiegando nella nostra lingua le meraviglie dei castelli di Dunnottar e Gamlin. Grazie Valeria e grazie scoziatour.

Abbiamo visto come guida Cristina! È stata una eccellente guida, simpatica e molto socievole. I posti sono meravigliosi e il tour merita davvero come esperienza!!

Il tour è ottimamente concepito e ben organizzato, i posti visitati ne costituiscono splendida realtà oggettiva. La guida , Zeno , lo ha però reso eccellente. Iperbolico , colto, instancanbile intrattenitore...mai banale o fastidioso...ha interpretato le sue dieci ore di lavoro in modo singolare offrendoci la sua conoscenza, la fantasia e la sua curiosità "onnivora". Bravissimo

Io e mio marito abbiamo prenotato visite private per Edimburgo a piedi e per i castelli ed è stata un'ottima esperienza.Le guide sono molto preparate e simpatiche. Interessante il tour a piedi di Edimburgo con Alessandra, che è stata molto brava, e che tra l'altro ci ha aiutato ad orientarci meglio per la città. Bellissimo il tour dei castelli di Glamis e Dunnottar: Valeria è stata fantastica per preparazione, cordialità e professionalità. Senz'altro da consigliare.

Abbiamo partecipato a 3 visite con Scozia Tour, la visita ai castelli Dunnottar e Glamis, la passeggiata storica di 3 ore e il tour dei fantasmi. Tutte e 3 le esperienze sono state fantastiche, guide preparatissime, simpatiche, disponibili e molto gentili (Valeria, Martina e Roberta, bravissime!). Tour molto ben organizzati e coinvolgenti con spiegazioni sempre molto esaustive e ricche di curiosità e particolari interessanti. Consigliatissimo per conoscere meglio Edimburgo e questa bellissima terra, con tutti i suoi segreti e le sue magie.

Abbiamo partecipato a questo tour di una giornata ed è stata una bellissima esperienza nonostante il piccolo inconveniente con il pulmino poi risolto dall'autista Jesus e abbiamo potuto continuare il tour. Molto bravo e simpatico e veramente molto preparato Zeno la guida sempre pronto a fornire spiegazioni e ad illustrare i castelli. Veramente bravi complimenti.
