The tour was ok, the commentary wasn't that great, i've had more enthusiastic drivers and you it really makes the experience a lot better. Wish the driver invested more time and energy into it - was quite quiet a lot of the journey. Stop off points were good but if you don't pay the extra to get into museum and castle there's some hanging about - ok value for money

This tour was wonderful but I do have at least one fault with it which was not totally the tour's doing. The buildings of the Robert Burns site are so far apart, it would have been impossible to take them all in. Even with the driver's help at offering to drop us and pick us up at another place, the walking would not have been possible to take in all of them. Tickets sold were for a combination of entrances and would have been better if sold individually if requested. We did walk by the actual cottage with the help of our guide/driver. And the gardens would have deserved more quiet time to sit for a minute!

Amazing tour! Even with only two travellers, the tour went ahead. Our guide, Juliette, was professional, accommodating, knowledgeable, friendly and funny. She conducted her tour and conveyed her information conversationally. It was a glorious day! Culzean is a beautiful castle, the Ayreshire coast glorious and all the information about Robbie Burns fascinating. Couldn't have enjoyed it more.

The trip in Airshire was very pleasant. The countryside was surprisingly beautiful, shame that many tourists do not travel in the Scottish lowlands. The guide was excellent, he obviously loves and knows the local history and culture. He even included appropriate songs where to discribe his storytelling. Wonderful! I recomend it!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
