A lovely day spent in Dornoch and Dunrobin Castle

Published on Sep, 2024

We had a wonderful day!! We really didn't know what to expect but Thistle Tours really came through for Viator. Laura was our guide. She was knowledgeable, flexible, and kind. We had a small group of 8 and this allowed some flexibility in our tour. None of us cared about Whiskey so we skipped it. That gave us more time for Dunrobin Castle, the gardens and falconry show. This is a really great castle to visit. We had adequate time everywhere. Dornoch is a really sweet town where we found some good souvenirs and spent time in the church there. Delightful. Viator has NEVER let us down and we have used them a lot over the years. Well done Laura, well done.

Fantastic Experience for Invergordon Cruise Port

Published on Aug, 2024

This tour was the best decision we made on our cruise. It was packed full of beautiful views, good information, and fun sights. Our guide was June, and she was a delight. I would do this again and again. Really cannot recommend this tour enough.

Book Thistle excursions!

Published on Aug, 2024

We took this Thistle Excursion with June and we had the best day! She modified the trip a bit due to weather, but we saw everything we wanted to see and were back to the ship in plenty of time. When next I go to Invergordon, I will not hesitate to book with Thistle. I highly recommend Thistle!! They will even work with you to plan a specific itinerary of what you want to see. It was such a wonderful day!
