    I had a wonderful time and would (already have) recommend GAdventures to friends. The small group was great, accommodations were clean and itinerary was outstanding. I can't wait for my next trip!

    I loved the scenery of Scotland and the people on the tour. Our leader wasn't a good fit & she got mad at some of the members & the bus driver.

    I booked a private tour with four couples and I'm ready to book more adventures for our friend group. We saw so much of Scotland and got to learn history, culture, and even eat haggis while seeing beautiful cities and landscapes. I want to go back pronto.

    Magnificent tour of a country more beautiful than we could have imagined. Our guide Susie knew all of the great spots to go and formatted everything in an efficient way to maximize our experience. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves, history, nature, endless stretches of green, and being in a country with friendly locals.

    Tour guide and bus driver were both excellent. Starting hotel was terrible and no where near the main area of Edinburgh. Breakfast there was a granola bar, croissant in a plastic wrap, a yogurt, and a juice box. Our hotel room in Inverness had a leaky ceiling which we reported to the front desk right away. They said they sent maintenance to fix the issue, but that evening it was leaking again. G Adventures itinerary is not reflective of the actual tour and for many extra activities listed there was no time to do them even if we had wanted to. Isle of Skye was a real highlight along with Inverness. We only received our tour vouchers the night before we left Canada and we had to call to get it. We will not consider G Adventures for any of our future travel needs.
