Luxury small-group Devon and Cornwall tour from London with Stonehenge, Dartmoor, Tintagel, Minack Theatre, St Ives and Glastonbury.

“Only 10 in our group yet split into 3 different places each night. There was a huge difference in the quality of the accommodation- from very poor guest houses to hotels and far apart, making it hard to join up for dinner or evenings. Plus we didn’t have the locations nor names of the other places. Maybe that was so we couldn’t compare our accommodations! Do not use Telstar ‘hotel’ Exeter again for your patrons.

Five days from Edinburgh to Orkney, Loch Ness, Inverness, and Skara Brae, with a small group, ferry ride, and guided history stops.

“The 5-day Orkney trip was incredible! Kenny was our guide and he made it even better, I think. He brought us to so many little out-of-the-way places to see beautiful views between the big visits like Skara Brae and the stone circles. He gave us tips on what to do or see during our stops in towns. He played relevant music between telling us stories and bits of history about the places we saw. He really seemed to love the highlands and Orkney and it really made for a great trip. The itinerary was a perfect pace, we really got enough time to see everything without being rushed. Lots of…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 14 reviews · 5 days · from $507Best value

5 days from Edinburgh to Skye, Oban, Highlands and St Andrews, with small-group guiding, big scenery, and optional whisky and seals.

“Overall it was good. Beautiful Scenery. I was disappointed that we did not get to at least go to the bridge of castle Eilean Donan castle. We only viewed from a distance as the guide said he didn't want to pay fee to park closer. That castle was one of the main reasons I selected that tour. Also our guide Steven liked to hike a lot. This was not advertised as a hiking tour. Some of the hikes were too difficult for me.”
