8/18/2023 0 Comments Highlander scotlandI’m not being dramatic here, it just simply does not get better than a day spent adventuring around the most beautiful country with such an incredibly joyful, enthusiastic, considerate soul there to not only give you the history of the places you visit but also use his imagination and acting skills to bring it to life for you. Such as “Where does my life go from here?” and “Could it be that my best days are now behind me?” BUT be prepared that after your tour with Andy, when the high of sheer joy starts to wear off and you begrudgingly come back to reality, you will wake up one morning and you will be faced with some tough questions. We could not be more thankful to Andy (and fellow tour guide James of Alba Experiences!) for a truly unforgettable tour! We can’t wait to come back! His knowledge of every single part of Scotland is astounding, and his passion for what he does is truly inspiring. We could not have asked for a better duo, and the time we did have with Andy (despite the circumstances!) was absolutely wonderful. While other tour guides may have considered canceling our tour, Andy not only showed up for us in between hospital visits, but he also connected us with the owner of another private, bespoke tour guide who is also an extra on the show. We were so excited when we came across Highlander Tours and couldn’t wait to have the legendary Andy the Highlander take us through all the must see Outlander locations and learn about Scottish history on our two-day tour from Edinburgh… and wow he did not disappoint!!! The day before our tour, Andy had an unfortunate accident that left him with a wounded leg. My parents and I took my grandma (the world’s biggest Outlander fan!) to Scotland for her 85th birthday in March. PS Steak and Haggis pie that Andy had us try in Culross was out of this world! Hands down, best tour guide in Scotland! Thank you Andy for a tour of a lifetime with priceless memories! He’s also a big kid himself and joined in on Easter egg hunts with my kids at Blackness castle and Hopetoun house and kept fueling them with fun activities and snacks.Īs for the highlights of our tour with Andy, it’s my boys transformation into Highlander warriors in kilts, sword fighting lesson, as well as the reading on the steps of the reunion scene in Outlander at Bakehouse close. He goes out of his way to make sure that everyone is enjoying their time no matter their age or interest (including two young children and a teen). We had so much fun exploring Outlander and Harry Potter sites with Andy in and around Edinburgh. Andy has a unique ability to immerse you in Scottish culture and in the places you visit. When I asked what they liked the most about the tour, the answer was unanimously “Andy”! that speaks volumes about the genuinely wonderful person, easygoing and highly experienced tour guide Andy is.Įven though I have zero Scottish blood in me, the connection I felt to Scotland was beyond words. My family and I just returned home from a fun filled ten day Harry Potter and Outlander tour of England and Scotland.
