The Alba Adventure - a 2-7 day private tour of Scotland

When our travel agent originally suggested a private tour, I didn't think it would be financially possible. However, when you have several people going, it quickly becomes the best option. The ability to customize the entire trip was so beneficial. Instead of changing hotels every night, Dave suggested ways to stay at hotels multiple nights. When one family member with limited mobility had trouble getting in the van, he bought a step stool and proceeded to get it in and out for every stop. We were able to visit the Clan museum and castle- something that would be impossible on a group tour. We looked forward to the daily historical stories as told by Dave. We enjoyed talking about current Scottish government and issues. Every morning he reviewed the schedule and we tweaked if needed. Taking my 80 year-old parents on their dream trip to Scotland was not only possible but memorable because of "Driver Dave".

Our tour with David was wonderful. He customized it to what we wanted to see, and he took care of every detail. Our hotels were excellent, the van was clean n comfortable, all we needed to do was get in the van n enjoy the days. I would recommend The Alba Adventure!

Dave was excellent. He is very knowledgeable about local history and has some great stories. You let him know what you want to see and he can make it happen. Dave takes good care of his clients. We had four people on our tour and his van was very comfortable. The hotels he chose were excellent. It really gave you a nice Scottish experience. History, beautiful scenery, and exceptional attention to detail. An awesome tour.

This is the only way to see the sights and travel the Highlands in Scotland. We loved our tour and tour guide. We were picked up promptly in Edinburgh and had the greatest adventure. We were delighted with his local knowledge which allowed us to properly allocate our time to see all the top sights. Chris was so comfortable to be with and his vehicle was comfy and luxurious and his Spotify playlist was excellent. Our top stop was Deanston Distillery - a highlight as we are fans of the film, Angel's Share. We also were excited to visit Stirling Castle, Doune Castle and the hairy coos. We covered so many sights and stayed in beautiful locations. Oban was extra special. I highly recommend this tour and actually can't wait to book another one because there is so much more to see in Scotland and these are the only folks I trust to take me around. Guaranteed A++ experience.

When you want to go to a country you have never been to before, it is often difficult to trust people, but with Dave you can be sure that your experience will be nothing but excellent. We got to know Scotland better than expected thanks to Dave. Everything is planned ahead of time, and he sticks perfectly to your needs and desires, he is extremely friendly along the way, someone you can talk to about anything, he tries to answer all your questions. He also gives you your time in every place we visit and if it is in his hands to help you if you have any problem, he surely will.
