Let me first say, we rarely if ever book a tour of any kind in our travels. Planning for me is half the fun... I am so happy we made the exception on our recent trip to Scotland. When trying to explore the best options for me and my husband and my 21 year old son studying there, I came... More

Helen, owner of Afternoon Tea Tours, is your friend, too! She listens to your dreams for your trip and creates an itinerary that meets your expectations. The environment is one of a good friend showing you around her neck of the woods, with all the hidden treasures and famous landmarks in one trip. I was with her twice - first... More

I wanted to give Josie, my 14-year-old granddaughter, a trip to remember. Helen gave us two glorious days and I was thrilled to find that she went beyond all my hopes and expectations. She quickly understood what Josie would be interested in and worked the tours around that. We saw everything from the ruins of Tantalon Castle to the grandeur... More

We had a wonderful time with Helen of Afternoon Tea Tours. Without her, we would not have experienced Scotland the way we did. Helen was very knowledgable, caring and accommodating. We wholeheartedly recommend this private tour to people who would like to see Scotland through the eyes of the local. Thanks, Helen.

Spending 4 days with Helen around parts of Scotland was like meeting an old friend and doing a spontaneous trip with something wonderful and unexpected around every corner. Quite special. Helen's love of the landscape is truly infectious, pointing out the little wonders of nature as we went along. I also had the best meals and conversations of any trip... More

My mom and I hired Helen with Afternoon Tea Tours to take us through the Scottish Highlands and to Loch Ness, visiting several places along the way there and back. Communicating with Helen in advance was easy and she always responded quickly. We had a wonderful trip! Helen is friendly and on-time and we felt at ease with her immediately.... More

Afternoon Tea Tours offers guests the best of everything a tour can provide. Owner and guide, Helen Fraser, is punctual, energetic, informative, helpful, understanding, considerate, diplomatic, personable, and a safe driver. Five of us spent a full day with her and were mesmerized by a tour-iffic experience. Her aim is to please and she hits the bull's eye. Actually, she... More

Helen gave us exactly what we wanted. Her knowledge of roads and places and locals. It was comfortable in the car and her cabin was fantastic. Everything was on our pace and just as we wanted. I truly recommend Afternoon Tea Tours
