In mid-January my husband and I had the pleasure of doing a private day tour with Grant from Scotland Day Tours.
This tour was booked many months in advance, and during all those months Grant was available for any questions and also offered us useful suggestions as to our itinerary.
At his suggestion, once he heard that we were transferring to Glasgow for a few nights after our stay in Edinburgh, we changed the tour date so that it fell on our last day in Edinburgh. Grant then picked us up early in the morning, we did our wonderful day tour, and he then dropped us off at our Glasgow hotel at the end of the day. This not only saved us a long drive back to Edinburgh, it also saved us the cost and trouble of train transfers.
We could not have been happier with the service provided by Grant. We picked a tour from his list of small group tours, but then made slight changes to it to suit our needs. I had mentioned to Grant by email that I needed to stop and use public toilets more often than usual. He had all this factored into our itinerary so it made for a very pleasant, relaxing day.
Our request was to see castles and lochs and Grant made sure we saw plenty of both. Some of the scenery was quite spectacular but unfortunately as the day drew to an end, it became rainy and grey and some of what I am sure would have been the most spectacular views became totally invisible. We were aware that this could happen though when touring in winter.
If anyone is looking for a tour of Scotland you will certainly not go wrong using this company.
Hello Debbie and Gary,

I'm so glad you enjoyed the day and that we could meet all your needs. It means a lot to for you to hear that you selected us from a group of companies.
I'll have a word with the weather people !
Regards
Grant
Grant tailor made a great half day trip for us (parents and two teenage girls) and dropped us at the airport in perfect time.
We visited a couple of castles and loch lomond.
The weather was dull and raining but Grant managed to still make the trip amazing with his knowledge and professional attitude.
All communication was prompt and price was amazing compared to other companies we looked at.
Very happy. It was the best end to our short break in Edinburgh and the added bonus of not having to wheel our cases around on the last day after hotel check out. Perfect!
Many thanks for your kind words, it really means a lot to us that you enjoyed your time. It was a shame the weather wasn't the best but that's something we are working on controlling :-)
We had a great tour from Edinburgh to St Andrews! Grant also recommended a few other stops along the way and back that were fantastic! I would definitely recommend this tour for any day trips! The day can easily be customized!
Hi. Many thanks for your review, i'm really glad you enjoyed the day trips and the extra stops were to your liking. Thanks again.
Great day and great guide, Elliott! We enjoyed every stop, which included Falkland Castle, St Andrew's golf course and time to experience all we wanted in St Andrew's which was beautiful! Elliott was very knowledgeable, helpful with additional suggestions for our additional days in Edinburgh and flexible especially when we wanted "local" fish and chips! When we return we will be calling Grant who set this trip up perfectly!
Hi Debbie/Bruce. Many thanks for your review, it's great to see that we met your requirements for your personalised tour. We work very hard to tailor make each tour around our guests needs. Regards Grant
Grant, our tour guide and driver was one of the best! Very friendly, ready to accommodate any reasonable request; he is full of knowledge about Scotland, history, places and people.
Will do another tour with him anytime!
Thank you Grant
Hi, Many thanks for your review, it was an absolute pleasure to show you around Scotland and glad that we met your expectations for your holiday. Regards Grant
What an amazing tour! I cannot say enough about our experience. Grant planned out an amazing itinerary for our two day tour and we were beyond impressed.
We saw many of the must see tourist spots but also some of the smaller castles and lesser know towns which was such a treat. Grant has an amazing wealth of knowledge about Scotland and loved to share it with us on our tour.
Grant has a great personality and did an amazing job making our trip to Scotland unforgettable. We had lots of stops to stretch our legs and grab a snack. Lots of photo opportunities - he knew all the perfect places to stop. Bonus - we saw the Harry Potter Train in Glenfinnan (my kids were thrilled).
Hi Majella. Many thanks for your review, we strive to make all guest's visit to Scotland memorable, so it's great to receive any feedback. I'm glad you and the family enjoyed the tour. Regards Grant
