If you're limited in time on the island then this all day trip is for you. See all the notables with a well seasoned tour guide who actually takes you on the tour. Can pick and drop you off at the ferry terminal. BYO lunch, you'll be eating it along the way. Highly recommend.
Covered loads of historical places on Orkney in comfort with friendly and knowledgeable tour guide (Dougie).
We had a knowledgeable guide and the tour was well paced and not arduous. The wee coach is comfortable and the stops are well organised for group. A range of day trippers and island staying tourists.
The tour was more than expected. Our guide, Ron, knew just the right timing to get us places ahead of the crowds and gave us historical and archeological details that surpasses our expectations. The trip was personalized, with a comfortable van and flexible itinerary.
Super tour guide George, who always has a casual joke ready, but can also explain a lot and shines with knowledge. We enjoyed a very nice ride around the island with plenty of free time at the stops.
Doogie was such a friendly, caring guide, who was so very knowledgeable. He also listened as well as giving us all the interesting information. Also we were given choices as to different places to visit. Scara Brae was amazing , also the beautiful standing stones . We were very fortunate with the lovely warm weather today Thank you so much Dougie Bev and Gerry Joseph
This was an absolutely stunning and wonderful trip. Our driver and guide Doogie was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and pleasant and very accommodating. The weather cooperated 50% of the time. Sometimes it was pouring rain. Sometimes it was sunshine. We learned so much about the history of the Orkney islands and of Scotland in general. Our guide was not just taking us in the van, he walked through all of the places we went to and gave us much more information than we would have gotten - Had we just been doing it on our own. This is a tour that I absolutely highly recommend! If you can have Doogie take you, that would be an absolute benefit.
Great experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and sites we visited. He did a terrific job of getting us to each site when it was less crowded making for a much better experience. We got to see all the sites on the itinerary with plenty of time at each to immerse ourselves and take pictures. There were only 8 of us on the tour which made for a less crowded experience in the van and at the sites we visited. All in all….highly recommended and good value for the cost.
An amazing tour with Tour Orkney. Ciaran was an excellent guide. We were on a Viking cruise and he picked us up at the port for the "Highlights Tour". It was a wonderful experience. We visited the Stones of Stenness, Ring of Brodgar, Skara Brae, the lovely Italian chapel, and St Magnus Cathedral, along with a few others. It was an incredible tour! Ciaran was a very knowledgeable local guide and we enjoyed our time with him. We had an outstanding day! I would highly recommend this tour!! Thanks Ciaran!
George was amazing. Such a lovely young man. His eagerness to share his knowledge of Orkney history had him stand out from other tour guides.
