If my clients could give 10 stars they would have... - I am a travel agent who was looking for a Mary Queen of Scots private tour and came across Hopscotch Travel. From the start, they were incredibly responsive and professional in all email communication. They provided all the necessary information for my clients to have an amazing and seamless experience. Any questions or issues that came up were addressed promptly and with care, and the level of personalized service exceeded my expectations. My clients returned with glowing feedback, especially praising the knowledgeable guide (Frazier) and the thoughtful, well-paced itinerary. I highly recommend Hopscotch Travel to anyone looking for a customized, high-quality tour experience in Scotland.

Mary Queen of Scots Hopscotch tour - Hopscotch is great! Our group of 6 did the Mary Queen of Scots day tour. Our guide, Fraser, was super knowledgeable, flexible and fun! The van was big enough for our group and very comfortable. The lunch in Falkland (aka Inverness on Outlander) was delicious and the town was so quaint. We learned so much Scottish history and had a blast doing it. I give Hopscotch 5 stars!!
