Great Tour of Outlander Castles

Joao picked us up on time in a totally clean Mercedes Van. He spoke about where we were going and gave us choices. He picked an order of castles to see. He was very knowledgeable in speaking about all our destinations. At the end we had a little time left over and he took us to the Glasgow Cathedral. We were back to the ship in plenty of time. Thanks Joao for a great day.
