Orkney: Ihre 5,5h Entdeckungsreise zu uralten Geheimnissen

Dougie war sehr sympathisch und hat uns sehr viele Details von seiner Insel und deren Geschichte erzählt. Wir haben mit einem kleinen Bus und kleiner Gruppe die Sehenswürdigkeiten besucht und kamen gut durch. Zeit für Fotos gab es auch. Wir haben viel mehr erfahren, als bei einer Rundfahrt auf eigene Faust. Trotz nicht günstigem Preis können wir es empfehlen.

Wenn man sich einen Tagesausflug auf dem Mainland der Orkneyinseln gönnen möchte, dann ist dies genau das Richtige. Mit einem ortskundigen und freundlichen Guide der die Highlights der Insel kennt, eine sinnvolle Route geplant hat und dezent Tipps für das schönste Foto und das beste Eis gibt. Die Abholung am Fährhafen hat ebenfalls super geklappt. Absolute Empfehlung. Vielen Dank!

Alles perfekt von Anfang bis Ende! Treffpunkt super leicht zu finden mit sehr freundlichen Empfang von Rachel. Wir haben sehr viele interessante Informationen erhalten, denen wir gerne lauschten. Für Kirkwall kann nicht genug Zeit eingeplant werden, um es ausreichend ohne Vorwissen erkunden zu können. Ein Tipp, wo man seine Stunde am besten nutzen könnte, wäre von Vorteil. So liefen wir einfach nur umher. Dennoch, wir sind voll auf unsere Kosten gekommen! Vielen Dank! J. & K.

Iain was excellent. His knowledge of the history of the area was extensive and made our tour so interesting. We enjoyed the sites of Orkney and loved the area.

Chris was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. I got a lot of value from his knowledge that I would have missed driving myself around.

The tour was wonderful! Iain was very knowledgeable and you could tell he has a deep passion for Orkney's history. Everything was well paced, fascinating, and very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour for an introduction to Orkney.

Myself, wife & daughter shared a mini bus with one other person. Maureen our guide was excellent, friendly and informative.We enjoyed the history and geology of the island. In particular her anecdotes of her life on the island about local events gave a more personal touch. Thanks to Maureen we saw as many sights that we could comfortably fit in in one day. Important that we kept to time and Maureen did that.

Very accommodating and friendly, changed pick-up to the cruise ship for ease. Enjoyed the experience and the stories of culture and history.

We enjoyed the whole experience. We were met as we came off the ferry by Rachel who was very informative for the whole trip. We loved all the places we visited. However we only realised afterwards that we never got a bottle of water as promised. A small thing but something we expected as we hadn’t brought any of our own. We were delivered back to the ferry in plenty of time. On the whole we would certainly recommend this tour.

Great experience. Our Guide Rachel was incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming and engaging. Also a great driver . The return ferry was cancelled due to being stuck at Scrabster because of high winds. Orkney Travel handled the situation with ease and managed to find us an alternative route back to Thurso that evening. Well done !! Highly recommended!
