A different day out for tourist experience in Edinburgh area - I brought Canadian friends here for a different day out in Edinburgh area. The were so delighted with the chapel, having the task of spotting things in the brochure and, particularly, the talk. The lady doing the talk was excellent.

Wonderful Experience All Around - Wonderful way to see three+ major sites near Edinburgh. Our guide and driver, Louise was amazing. She was so knowledgeable, interesting, generous with tips and suggestions and obviously passionate about Edinburgh and Scotland. She was so very skillful in maneuvering both the bus and the finicky sound system all the while sharing gems about the area’s history and current events. I was also struck by her warmth and friendliness. Of course the sites were absolutely phenomenal and made sense experienced together.

A great tour for history buffs. Great guide. - This was a great tour. All of the sites visited were well worth seeing. Rosslyn Chapel in particular was spectacular. Our guide, Lance, had a great knowledge of history, which he shared through great stories. As a bonus, we also got a quick detour to the Falkirk Kelpies.
