Scotland Tour Guide Options
Option 1 (My top recommendation) 900GBP total for 2 days
Hi Rochelle,
Thank you so much for your enquiry, and that was so kind of Kim to recommend me.
July is already pretty busy, and the Open at St Andrew's is adding to demand.
I am fully booked at that time, but one of my other guides, a keen photographer, Andrew, would be the perfect match.
I would say full days, as opposed to 1/2 days. A wee bit of time is needed to travel out of the city and enjoy the locations.
Rosslyn Chapel and the Scottish Borders is a beautiful day tour and perhaps Stirling Castle ( the most important Castle in Scotland) and the beautiful and very historic surrounding area.
Private guided tours are 595GBP (Sterling) per day and include the private guide, transport and itinerary planning.
Kind regards & Slainte,
Niall McOwan

Andrew will be their guide and he’s a photographer with an excellent knowledge of Scotland.
I can send a more detailed itinerary but perhaps a mixture of Highland and lowland.
Highland Perthshire, Loch Tay and the surrounding villages are beautiful.
Day two: The Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies are a must see and we have incredible Roman and Pictish history too.
Andrew will ensure each day is fantastic and well balanced.
I will pencil your clients in and we can finalise the booking payment in due course.
I normally send an invoice for small deposit and the balance a couple of weeks before the trip.
This can be paid by credit card/bank transfer etc
The total for the two days private guiding is 900GBP
I hope this helps but please let me know if you require any more info.
Kind regards and best wishes from Scotland
Niall

Option 2 - Ann Stewart £750 per day
Good Morning Rochelle,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. As you will realise with the 150th Open taking place over the dates requested it has not been so easy securing a vehicle and driver. Seems as if everyone and their granny are visiting Scotland on those dates. However I have secured a luxury vehicle from a reputable company which I have dealt with in the past. The daily rate will be £750 per day.
I am attaching my T and Cs for your perusal. If you wish to proceed, I am happy to hold the dates for 14 days until you have discussed with your clients. To secure the dates will require a 15% deposit as mentioned in the T and Cs. On receipt of this deposit I will provide a suggested itinerary for each day.
