    Out of numerous tours I’ve been on this was at the top. Esra was a wealth of knowledge. The hotels were nice. Would definitely book with On The Go again.

    My last trip booked with Tourrader was operated by Travel Talk. It was a 10 day tour of the Balkan Region of Eastern Europe. It was a group adventure with about 35 people.

    This Outlander tour was wonderful. It was booked with Rabbies which was excellent. The group was a group of 15 people which I liked. The bugs driver/ tour guide Lizzie was fantastic. Super sweet and chock full of stories and knowledge. The itinerary and overall organization was good. I felt we did a lot more Outlander heavy stuff on day 1 and day 4 which I loved. In the town of Falkland, we had dinner and further spend much time exploring there and got tons do some photos but that felt a bit rushed and this town I looked forward to see while area small, I wanted to soak in a bit more. We entered all castles with no issues as 99% of them came pre booked or were free to enter with exception of midhope castle. The accommodations provided were both excellent in my opinion. I was very happy where I stayed and had a full Scottish breakfast at both places. During the tour there were plenty of times bathroom breaks and a lunch break. The tour bus was easy to find in Edinburgh with the instructions provided and we were dropped off same location with ease. I highly recommend.

    Tania

    Asked on January 29th, 2023

    Looking at staying 4 days and 3 night stay in Istanbul. This is for a birthday trip for my mother who is 70 years old and wouldn't be able to walk a lot. If we were to book the group tour is there a lot of walking involved or is it best to book a private tour? Also, with regards to accommodation are you able to confirm where we would be staying please?

      We can definitely book a twin room with 2 separate beds. We normally use Ramada Old City or Kent Hotel. There is no problem for people over 70 to travel on this tour but all passengers over 70 needs to complete our tour suitability form.

      TravelerWritten January 2023

      Would we be the only 2 on the tour?

    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten January 2023

      The tour is private means we don't need a minimum number of passengers in the group to run this departure. We will run it just for 2 of you but your guided sightseeing may be conducted with other passengers.
