My family and I went to visit Scotland for the first time this year. There were four of us who really did not know what to expect, and could not have predicted how wonderful an experience we would have. We met Craig and instantly knew that this was going to be an incredible trip and that, whether he liked it... More

I traveled with Craig as my guide in 2009 on my very first trip to Scotland and most recently, on my second trip this past autumn (October, 2011). It is with total delight that I post this review about Craig and his top notch services! For this second adventure, I had asked Craig to plan the entire agenda in advance... More

On the morning self we made a plan, which had to be changed due... More

Have used Craig three times, and each time the trip has been flawless. He is very knowledgeable about Scotland past and present, and he is personable, adapting himself to the personality and pace of each group. I always recommend him to anyone thinking about going to Scotland, whether they know where they want to go or just want someone to... More

The reviews you read below give an accurate accounting, so I will keep it brief and to the point. Craig is a true professional and he brings incredible value. My wife and 3 young children toured with him throughout Scotland Monday - Thursday over Thanksgiving week We now have memories that will last a lifetime. It is obvious that he... More

Our 17 days touring with Craig took us from Glasgow to Mull, Skye, Harris and Lewis, back to Skye, along the coast to Durness, then back to Glasgow via Inverness and Glencoe. The trip exceeded our expectations in every way, even the weather was relatively benign. Craig proved to be an excellent guide.with an amazing knowledge of his country and... More

We booked a three-day tour with Mini Tours for our honeymoon, spanning the borders, west coast and Highlands. The booking process, done completely through email, was simple and Craig was very accommodating as to personalizing the tour to fit what we were looking for. When we met Craig the first day of the tour, we were pleasantly surprised. He is... More

My wife and I spent a week with Craig touring all the Highlands and chasing family history. We are both older and not as agile as in the past and Craig made the whole tour easy. He knows his stuff and is a gracious advisor. If you are an American elder statesperson choose Craig and leave he driving to him.... More
