Small Group Tours are the way to go!

We took their trip to St. Andrew’s and a Whisky Tasting. In addition we visited Loch Levin with its connection to Mary Queen of Scots and a stop in Falkland, which was a filming site of the Outlander Series. Our guide, John, was very knowledgeable about the area and told some great stories with fun music to highlight specific parts of our trip. It was a great value for the money! Try GO Tours!

Good feel of Scotland in 8 hours.

This was a very pleasant and entertaining tour. Our guide and driver (John) was extremely knowledgeable and gave us interesting facts along the way. The tour fits a lot of stuff into 8 hours and ends with a visit to Lindores Whisky. Highly recommend!

Dear Robert,
Sounds like John delivered the full Scottish experience — and finishing with some Whisky is always a good shout. Really glad you enjoyed it.
Cheers, James

Great day trip.

Great tour and way to see several places in a day. St.Andrews is beautiful and Lindores Abbey tour is in depth and knowledgeable. I would absolutely go back to both. Our guide was informative and friendly. She was also very considerate of our time and wanted to make sure we were having the best experience. Would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a day trip from Edinburgh.

Dear Mellisa,
St Andrews and Lindores in a day is a brilliant combination. Really glad your guide looked after you so well and hope to see you back on another trip soon!
Best, James

a super day out in the Kingdom of Fife

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.

Une excursion fantastique

Merci à John, notre guide et chauffeur, de nous avoir fait vivre une excursion fantastique! C'est un homme d'une grande culture qui nous a raconté plein d'histoires intéressantes sur l'Ecosse mais aussi une personne très sympathique, très ouverte, à l'écoute de ses "clients" . Je recommande chaudement cette excursion avec lui, vous ne le regretterez pas.

Great day trip!!

We joined from Edinburgh to St Andrews tour. Booking process was easy. Because we booked last minute Glenn made every effort to accommodate us in the whiskey tour. John was a great driver and friendly and knowledgeable host who kept the group entertained all throughout the journey. Every site stop selected in our journey was great. They are just starting tours in Scotland don't let the low number of reviews keep you away. It exceeded expectations highly recommended!!

Great day trip to St Andrew’s and other stops

We had a great day touring with John through some of Scotland’s most historic and picturesque locations a short distance from Edinburgh. Our two couples traveling together particularly enjoyed the intimate group size which allowed for a relaxed pace, easy conversation, and plenty of personal attention from John. The itinerary was well designed with short drives along scenic roads with just enough time at each stop. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a relaxed, enriching day trip from Edinburgh.

Tour was fabulous! John was a great guide and very friendly! We got a good taste of Scotland and some whiskey! Great value!

What can I expect from the whisky tasting?
Are there non-alcoholic options available at the distillery?
Why is Falkland famous?
Is St Andrews only for golf lovers?
What is the Kingdom of Fife?
Will we see any other notable landmarks?
