- CCCYNTHIA· September 18th, 2024The overall experience was great! Jim Divine, the tour van driver, was a knowledgeable tour guide, with a fun sense of humor.Show moreTrip date: September 2024
- SGSusanne· August 21st, 2024The tour was enjoyable however issues arose with each accommodation regarding payment. The driver and accomodation were not informed of prepayment and it lead to some on the spot, potentially embarrassing situations. The driver was not happy about the situation also and made that clear. Better communication in future about such arrangements would make the overall experience more enjoyable, and stress free.Show moreTrip date: August 2024

Asked on August 11th, 2024I have asked for the travel insurance for the trip to be cancelled, and refunded as I have other insurance for my entire trip and do not need the local one. Can this be arranged please?

Traveler•Written August 2024It has been a very frustrating experience dealing with TourRadar as they did not reply to my questions or send a full itinerary at all, and have charged significantly more than you guys have advertised.

Asked on July 29th, 2024Would there ib a place to store larger luggage until we return toEdinburgh
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written July 2024
There are lockers in the Edinburgh Bus Station, though these can be a little pricey. There is a cheaper luggage storage facility in Edinburgh Waverley train station, roughly ten-minutes' walk from the bus station. This is run by the Excess Baggage Company, and is located between Platform 2 and 3, opening from 07:00 each day. I recommend having a wee look at their website for more information.

Amelia
Asked on February 3rd, 2023Prices for 4-day Scottish Castle tour/person? How do I go about combining this tour with Brendan's 8-day Irish Castles and Manors tour (i.e. logistics of transferring from one tour to another)? Are any overnight stays in actual castles included?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written February 2023
This tour has been discontinued for 2023, so you are unable to book. In terms of combining different tours, we are unable to book any accommodation for you out with your tour. You are able to do tours back-to-back but you would have to sort any logistics yourself.

Annie
Asked on February 8th, 2022Interested in a Rabbie's tour - the four day Scottish Castle Experience. But if I ask them to make the hotel arrangements for me, what would the hotel cancellation provisions be since the hotel changes would not be a part of the tour package?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written February 2022
If you book on TourRadar, the hotel and the tour are packaged together which means the accommodation is included in the price. You would need to cancel at least 21 days prior to your departure date to be entitled to a full refund. There would be no refund is you cancel less than 21 days prior to departure.

Wendy
Asked on December 26th, 2018How much luggage can I bring?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written December 2018
Passengers are restricted to 14kg (31lbs) of luggage per person on our tours. This should be one piece of luggage similar to an airline carry-on bag (approximately 55cm x 45cm x 25cm / 22in x 17in x 10in) plus a small bag for onboard personal items. Unfortunately, Rabbies are unable to store excess luggage, but nearby train and bus stations may have storage facilities for you to use.
