    Learning some of the history of Edinburgh. Gee was very informative and entertaining. He made sure we got to see as much as possible. We got to take THE pictures to help remember our trip. We got to enjoy a traditional meal. I gave 5 Stars for the excursion and Gee as our tour guide. If I took one star away it would have been the weather, which none of us have control. Very cool and damp with some showers thrown in. When we come back would be earlier in season.

    We had a delightful time with Doug as our guide in Edinburgh, Scotland on May 29, 2024. He was an excellent tour guide who was very knowledgeable about Edinburgh and the surrounding area. My daughter Kelly Merritt said we walked around 5 miles during the whole day together!! We highly recommend Doug Scott!!

    Wonderful experience exploring Edinburgh! Our guide, Doug, was so knowledgeable and friendly and tailor made our excursion so that our entire group (mother and and daughters) was entertained and engaged!

    Graham was wonderful. Friendly, knowledgeable, funny, everything a guide could be. The only criticism is that he should have had a sign with our name on it when we got off the tender. Other than that he was perfect and it was a perfect day. He’s a gem!
