“I'd give them SIX stars if able! From the beginning of the planning process through the end of our tour, everything was handled with professionalism and consideration of all our wishes. Our tour included everything from the Military Tattoo in Edinburgh to the Highland Games in Dunoon. Our accommodations were very good with few exceptions and most included breakfast which got us off to a good start every day. We covered much of Scotland including many lesser known places and attractions like the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies, and the Antonine Wall. We visited Orkney Island and got as far north as 59 degrees while visiting Skara Brae. We also toured the Isle of Skye, Isle of Mull and Iona. We visited many of the most beautiful castles and some ruins, along with many beautiful chapels and cathedrals. And of course, we stopped at several distilleries and pubs to sample some of Scotland's finest Whisky. We also took a ride on the Jacobite Steam Train which many will know as the Harry Potter Train. The absolute best part of our entire trip was our tour guide, Heather. Her bright smiling face every morning, her in-depth knowledge of the sites we visited and the history Scotland's Clans and of Great Britain's Lords, Earls, Kings and Queens made for a most educational experience. She would tell a story in the van on our way to a site that related to the place or history of where we were going, and would end the story just as we pulled into the parking lot. Perfect timing! The other great thing was our tour manager, coordinator Jeff. He managed to get every one of our requests fit into the tour, made reservations for dinners at locations that we choose. He even took time our of his day to meet us in person while we were in Edinburgh, just to say hello. A-Plus service! If you ever plan to visit Scotland, be sure to let Purple Heather Scottish Tours make it your best trip ever!”
