The village of Falkland where early scenes of Outlander was shot was a highlight. Also the fishing village of Anstruther was lovely. St.Andrews is a must see of course but was very crowded. The pub recommended by our driver Paul was excellent.
Good afternoon Sibel. Thank you for your 5* review, it's very much appreciated. I will ensure that Paul gets a copy. Regards, Alan
It was a bucket list trip to visit the town of St. Andrew’s and see the Old Course. Perfect sunny weather. It was an awesome day. Our driver, Keith, was fantastic.
Good afternoon Doug. Many thanks for taking the time to give such a nice review. I will make sure Keith is given a copy. Regards, Alan
Upon arriving in South Queensferry, our driver was no where to be found! Luckily, another tour guide had Alan Fee's (owner of Ecosse Executive - Day Tours) number and we were quickly communicating via text. We were told our driver was stuck in traffic (due to an accident ~ no fault of his) and would be there as soon as possible. As all are aware, on vacation "time is your currency" and we spent 1.5 hours of our 8 hour day (approximately 20%) waiting for Paul, our driver to arrive. Once onsite the vehicle was immaculate and Paul did a great job with the remaining 6.5 hours ~ but time lost, is time lost. Our first stop was a detour to Falkland village where scenes of Outlander were filmed and we were serenaded by a local gentleman. Paul made the remaining 80% of the day engaging, enjoyable, and customized to our interests, yet somewhat rushed as he kept us moving along. We viewed the Forth Rail Bridge, took pictures at the famous bridge on the 18th hole of the St. Andrews course, enjoyed lunch at a tavern in St. Andrews, visited the Dunfermline Abbey ruins, but not really sure we saw much of East Neuk or the coastline. We would have loved to have another 1.5 hour of our day with Paul to expand our knowledge of this beautiful country and be entertained along the way. We lost approximately 20% of our day due to a traffic accident and Alan has determined that no compensation at all will be provided. So in short ~ based upon other reviews ~ if all goes well you will have a GREAT time/tour, but if there are issues, do not expect to be compensated by Ecosse Executive - Day Tours.
Hi Cyndi, As discussed during several communications with you after your tour. I fully appreciate that you got of to a bad start with the delays etc, and I would have been more accommodating to your demanded partial refund, if you had been less threatening? Although everything on your programme was covered AND as you said, Paul detoured from the route to allow you time to see Falkland village as you had enthused about Outlander. I understand that it was you and your party that said you had to be back to your ship early, as the last tenders were leaving earlier than originally planned? Regards, Alan
We all had such a lovely time on this day trip! Keith was absolutely incredible, especially taking care with my unusual situation; I had torn a ligament in my foot 2 days prior to our St. Andrews trip. Mind the gap getting into taxis from cobblestones! Keith was very kind and accommodating so that I was able to enjoy the entire trip. Charming. Beautiful drive and beautiful stops and highlights. Highly recommend.
Many thanks for your lovely 5* review, and I'm delighted that Keith looked after you so well, I shall be sure to pass a copy of your review over to him. Regards, Alan
We enjoyed our tour with Keith!! We were able to get a photo of us on the old course bridge. Highly recommendeded.
Good afternoon Pete. Thank you for your 5* review, it's very much appreciated, and I'm delighted that Keith looked after you so well. I will be sure to pass on a copy of your review for him to keep. Regards, Alan
We had a great time with our driver - he fully customized our trip based on our preferences - adding a stop and also skipping a stop because we wanted to return home early for a dinner reservation that night. He was fun and talkative and full of great advice. The only weakness was his lack of historical information. We’re a family of history nerds and would’ve liked more historical context, but his specialty was current information and suggestions. He was prompt and communicative
Good afternoon Juliana. Many thanks for your 5* review, it's greatly appreciated. I'm sorry that your Driver/Guide wasn't as knowledgeable as I/you would expect, and this is a matter that I will speak to his manager about.
Highly recommending booking this tour - great day trip out of the city with stunning sights along the way! Paul is a top notch guide - we enjoyed spending the day with him & learning lots about Scottish history. Book this trip!
Hi Rita. Many thanks for taking the time to give us such a wonderful review, it is very much appreciated. I'm delighted that you had such a great experience, and will pass a copy of your review on to Paul. Best regards, Alan
Paul was a wonderful guide and a joy to spend time with. We highly recommend Paul and Alan, the owner of the tour company
Hi David!! Many thanks for your 5* review. I'm delighted that you all had such a great experience, and I look forward to hopefully seeing you all again? I shall make sure that Paul receives a copy of this. Thank you again for trusting us with your excursion. Best regards, Alan
