Kathy and Don were very kind and provided this comment about the service I provided them.
“We loved our time in Scotland. You were an incredible guide – mature, steadfast, reliable, timely, knowledgeable; and gave us some novel experiences.
Caroline made the transportation so comfortable. It was so fun to see your home, and grateful that you kept our large bags for a couple nights.”
Thank you Kathy & Don.
