Private dark side tour with Georgia - The private dark side tour with Georgia was excellent! It was like a tour guided by a friend. She was informative and funny. Picking a start time was a bonus for our busy day.

Fantastic Tour - Our plans changed when our trip to Stirling was cut short. The tour company was very accommodating and we really enjoyed the tour with our guide Beth. She obviously knows her history and told some entertaining and interesting stories. I highly recommend this tour.
