5.00Hands down, best tour and driver I have ever had any where in the world. I requested a custom day trip and Kevin cared for all the details. He delivers facts and tales with wit and warmth. His driving is smooth and skilled. Impeccably cleaned and spacious private van. Just book it! I promise it will exceed any other options you are considering.
Great day, cold and rainy weather...

5.00Great day, cold and rainy weather aside Steve took us to the out of the way places, including Laureston Castle, which was delightful. For all intents and purposes, it was an open ended tour, but as it was our first visit to Edinburgh, we let the guide make the suggestions. I recommend this tour!
