I enjoyed meeting with Jill. She is a fount of information and the tour took us a bit off the beaten path. Jill tailored the tour to avoid the large crowds and provided interesting details about a variety of areas. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed seeing and hearing about Scottish history. We liked seeing those little out of the way places that you would not know about on your own. Jill was wonderful!

Got what I wanted- a little bit of history, some fun facts, hidden gems, tips on shopping- in less than 4 hours. Jill was on time, and was very generous with accommodating requests for food and bathroom breaks.
