5.00Excellent tour. We saw everything we wanted and more, including a trip for tasting in Scarpa Distillery. Gail as fabulous, engaging and knew so much more history than we could have found in a guide book. With her aid we also avoided busy times for tour coaches. Thanks Gail

5.00Gail was our driver/guide during our recent visit to the Orkneys. She is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the geography, history, culture and society of the region. Gail is extremely personable, totally reliable and a careful and competent driver. In short, an excellent tour guide!

5.00This was a great tour. Gail takes you through the details of the area and explains everything. She visits areas the buses cannot go and makes stops on your time (not a bus tour time and not loading and unloading all day). She answers any questions you may have and if you express an interest she makes sure that you see it and/or understand it (example St Magnus Cathedral). Excellent explanation of the sites, towns and history. One final note, the time (approximately fours hours) is perfect, as it does not leave you exhausted.
Excellent guide

Going where the tourist buses don't go

5.00Gail was absolutely wonderful! We gave her some general ideas of some things we were hoping to see that were not typical tourist areas (wildlife and scenery). Gail planed out the day and took us to places where tourists typically don't go. We were able to see some wonderful places off the beaten path. Even though the wildlife didn't cooperate by being in the anticipated areas, the scenery and her knowledge of the area and history was extensive. She really went out of her way to give us the experience that we wanted. If you are going to the Orkney Islands, Gail the guide you want!

5.00Excellent! Gail gave us a lot of local as well as historical information and stories. She was accommodating - took us to the Italian chapel when we mentioned it. We really saw a lot, didn't feel rushed and felt like we got our money's worth. Will definitely recommend her to friends!
A very nice tour with a great driver Gail

5.00Gail has worked out a very nice tour for us and has even taken into account some of our wishes. She told us a lot about the history and landscape of Orkney, which was very interesting. It was a very nice trip. If we come to Orkney again, we would book Gail again. Many thanks again to Gail for the beautiful tour!
Wonderful custom tour of Orkney sites and more

5.00Gail is a long time Orkney local who with deep knowledge of the island and a desire to show off its many qualities. She knows all of the back roads and showed us much more of the island than we had expected. And she gave us many ideas for the rest of our stay. We’re so glad she was our guide on our first day on Orkney.
