点评:We wanted to visit Scotland with a small group of our friends and were looking for a good tour company. I had seen some good reviews on Rick Steves Europe website about Inverness Custom Tours. After researching and directly contacting several tour companies, I decided to go with Inverness Custom Tours. It was the best decision we could have made! It is a family owned business, with years of experience, and local tour guides that take you to incredible, spectacular destinations.
Our private small group tour guide Ian, was incredible and quickly became our "new friend". Our tour started in Edinburgh and we headed out to explore the Isle of Skye and the Highlands with its breath taking landscapes, historic landmarks, epic castles, and quaint villages such as the cultural cute town of Portree. Ian was the best tour guide you could ever have! He is an historian, knows the legends and folklore of Scotland, is a storyteller and went out of his way daily to customize our tour so we could see and do what we all wanted.
We even met with an unforgettable woman who invited us to her sheep farm where we were able feed her animals, learn about the history and her daily life as a Scottish sheep farmer.She even showed us one of her intricate hand knitted sweaters and explained its historical meaning. We met with the locals, shopped in the quiet villages, enjoyed incredible food, had great accommodations with beautiful views and traveled along the countryside on the "off the beaten path" so we really were able to see the real Scotland and its friendly people
We ended our tour with the day and night at Crossbasket Castle in Glasgow, Scotland. Thank you Ian for an excursion of a lifetime and lifetime of memories!
翻译:我们想和一小群朋友一起去苏格兰旅游,正在寻找一家好的旅游公司。我在 Rick Steves Europe 网站上看到了一些关于 Inverness Custom Tours 的好评。在研究并直接联系了几家旅游公司后,我决定选择 Inverness Custom Tours。这是我们能做出的最佳决定!这是一家家族企业,拥有多年的经验,还有当地的导游,可以带您前往令人难以置信的壮观目的地。
我们的私人小团体导游 Ian 非常棒,很快就成了我们的“新朋友”。我们的旅行从爱丁堡开始,我们前往探索斯凯岛和高地,那里有令人叹为观止的风景、历史地标、宏伟的城堡和古朴的村庄,例如文化气息浓郁的波特里小镇。Ian 是你所能遇到的最好的导游!他是一位历史学家,了解苏格兰的传说和民间传说,是一位讲故事的人,每天都不遗余力地定制我们的旅行,让我们可以看到和做我们想做的事情。
我们甚至遇到了一位令人难忘的女人,她邀请我们去她的养羊场,在那里我们可以喂她的动物,了解历史和她作为苏格兰养羊人的日常生活。她甚至向我们展示了一件精致的手工编织毛衣,并解释了它的历史意义。我们与当地人见面,在安静的村庄购物,享用美味的食物,住在风景优美的舒适住处,沿着“人迹罕至的道路”游览乡村,因此我们真正看到了真正的苏格兰和友好的人民
我们在苏格兰格拉斯哥的 Crossbasket 城堡度过了一天一夜,结束了我们的旅程。感谢 Ian 为我们带来一生难忘的旅行!
