    My Mom and I absolutely loved this tour! Our tour guide Alex was so kind and thoughtful. He took very good care of us! Our bus driver Craig was also amazing. My Mom is 88 and Craig was so good to make sure she got down the bus stairs safely! Scotland and England are beautiful countries filled with rich history!

      We can book pre and post accommodation but it does have to be attached to the itinerary. We could not book independent stays. One post night would be at the Thistle London Marble Arch Hotel and would be $237 per person.
