I had Len and Glenn guiding us throughout the tour and it was absolutely amazing! I had the best time during this trip and would recommend everyone to do it!
They took us to all the spots and explained the history of how J.Clarkson started the farms, restaurants and many more.
a very enjoyable day out through picturesque Fife to St Andrews and then on to the lovely little distillery near the Tay. Jenny was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Ample time to explore St Andrews and I would thoroughly recommend this tour, especially the views from both road bridges across the Forth.
I normally don’t give reviews as they are only the persons opinion or someone who has a vested interest. Wife and I did the Best of Wales Tour and it exceeded expectations. Our driver/tour guide Claire was informative, interesting and caring on how she can help us. She knew our names almost instantly and made us feel at home. We enjoy small groups and have done many but will return to this company for any of our needs.
