We really enjoyed our trip to Scotland. It is a beautiful lush green country, which means lots of rain. We had two fabulous guides, Fiona and Doug! They are both passionate about their country, which was evident in all the stories they told in a very humorous way. We stayed in reasonably nice (clean) places and enjoyed decent food. The fish and chips the best. We learned more about Scotch Whisky than I ever wanted to know. The best part of the trip was the music with Moors and McCumber. The worst part of the trip was the uncomfortable bus with impossible seat belts. Thank you Scotland for hosting us!!

This tour was a wonderful experience. The tour guides, Paul and Mary, and my fellow travelers made this trip top notch. The accommodations were all great, especially the Kintail Lodge. The group meals were fantastic. I learned so much about Scotland’s history and culture, and I would highly recommend this tour.

We all agreed it would be hard to top this trip! Our 4 days in Edinburgh with Fiona were perfect! Especially my favorite day the hike to Arthur’s Seat. Fiona could immediately tell our skill levels and led us up and down while telling amazing stories of the history as only she can do. Her knowledge, sense of humor, temperment and skills were perfect for us. We were very sad to leave her. Then we met Ashley and she was just as wonderful & perfect. Her driving ability, confidence & courage were incredible. We loved her too. We stayed at beautiful accomodations and ate fabulous food, heard great music and met fabulous Scots. Drank fabulous whisky, heard fabulous music and stories and were very spoiled. Scotland Folk Tours does a wonderful job in every way and I would not hesitate to recommend or to take another of their tours. The quality of everything could not be surpassed. Thank you for providing such life experience exploring my MacLeod heritage I will never forget. 🫶🏼

I really enjoyed this tour. We had a great group of people; so much so, that it was hard for us to part! Fiona and Ashleigh were wonderful guides, full of knowledge and history of where we were and what we were seeing, which they shared with us, plus they took very good care of us! The musicians took time to explain, about their instruments, the meanings of songs, or anything elsewhere might want to know. It was lovely to hear them play and sing. And, of course, it was wonderful to have private concerts with our leader, Tret Fure! If you are interested in folk/Celtic music, I would definitely recommend this tour.
