Q; Paul, how many kilts do you own?A; aye well, I have my pipe band kilt, shown above which is Princess Elizabeth tartan, I have  Maclean of Duart dress and Hunting kilts, a National Scottish kilt and a kilt in tweed which is part of a suit.

Q; do you offer tours in winter? A; aye we do, in fact 12 months a year every year! Scotland is very different in the winter, changing colours, not so many tourists and a wonderful place to be! We arrange many whisky and curling tours in our winter months and the pace is slower with not so many tourists around, real open fires, a dram and relax - superb!

Q; are you two married?  A; aye the question everyone asks us! The answer is No. We are best of friends and business partners who have known each other for too many years to remember! We met years back in Perth but strangely enough, were brought up as wee nippers only miles from eachother. WHO ARE WE?

Q; what kind of tours do you offer?  A; every kind of tour! From self drive, driver guided, coaches, groups, no driving tours, trains and boats, whisky, golf, the list goes on and on! Please just ask us if you do not see what you want on our site, we specialise in designing tours for every occasion, even Scottish weddings and renewal's!

Q; how do we know we can trust you with our tour and do you have any recommendations ?  A; yes to both, for 15 years or so we have been taking tours in Scotland and Ireland, but don't take our word for it, see what other people say about us.

Dear Liz, We met our guide Paul McLean whom we came to adore. Wearing kilts each day he made our trip a journey through history, incited our interest in Scottish culture and generated lots of laughter.  No one else could have kept four ladies happy and comfortable, each with different thermostats!  Liz, he made our trip a total joy. We are grateful and he will remain in our minds and hearts a very long time. DeJuana Jones WashingtonDC
