    This was our first time traveling with Tours of Distinction. The trip was really well organized with little bus time. We saw everything and more of Scotland. Our guide was excellent and a lot of fun. We are already looking at a trip to Louisiana with them.

    I traveled with Tours of Distinction on this trip because Poland is a little too off the beaten path for me to have done it on my own. I was really impressed. The trip was well organized and we saw so much in the amount of time allotted for the tour. The office team was great from booking to departure and the tour director was welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable I would recommend this trip and Tours of Distinction.
