- Review from Tripadvisor
The cost of the tour compared to the experience gives a low review. Older small car was used as a shuttle service for a long day of traveling with little narrative on Mary Queen of Scott’s. The price did not include admission to the castles which would have been problematic on a busy day. I cannot recommend this tour.
