Based on Trip Advisor reviews, we booked a full day tour, 8 AM to 5PM, to see as much of the sites of Western Scotland as was practical. We had specified a tour just for the four of us, and he delivered as promised - a very roomy and comfortable SUV and Ricki outfitted in a kilt. He took us... More

We were with Ricki for a 4 day crash tour of the Highlands. From Oban to Skye, from Inverness to Perth. We went all over. And Ricki Henderson was with us every step of the way. He was my first contact when I booked the tour, and I knew right away that I made the right decision to go with... More

We wish to highly recommend Ricki Henderson as a super guide in Scotland! WE had the pleura of his company for an entire week as we toured from Edinburgh to the west coast to Inverness and back. Ricki's knowledge of castles, monuments, museums, pubs, restaurants, history and geography is super. As much as we saw and experienced, Scotland has so... More

Our guide,Ricki was very knowledgeable, in terms of the areas we visited, the history of Scotland,the best places to eat and see. Also he knows where all the public toilets are! He went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. He was professional, friendly, accommodating , flexible, and very kind. I would use him as a guide... More

Having just returned from an amazing trip to Scotland with my two best friends, I cannot say enough great things about the wonderful tour company, "About Scotland", that made so much of it possible. Beginning with my first contact with Ricki, who helped me create our itinerary into the Highlands, made accommodations for us at a beautiful B & B... More

We had the honour of having both Ian and Ricki as our guides on two occassions. My family is originaly from Scotland, yet my husband and daughter had never had an opportunity to "cross the pond" before. I had some unusual requests to see a few sites which would probably not be the typical venue. Ian and Ricki were most... More

Richard (Ricki) Henderson served as our driver for a two-week excursion of west Scotland. From the moment he picked us up at the airport, he was timely, enthusiastic, energetic, and professional.. Ricki quickly recognized our special interests and went beyond the call of duty to ensure that they were met. Our trip is a wonderful memory - thanks, Ricki More

I had the pleasure of visiting Scotland this summer with friends and family. During this time, we experienced what it means "to hire a driver." Ricki looked great in a kilt and only wanted us to have the best time possible. I sat in the front of the van and was his co-pilot and enjoyed every minute of it. Ricki... More

We did a one day tour from edinburgh to Eilean Donan castle, where no one else would take us in one day. From the first contact by email to the very last minute of the tour were great. They tailored a tour exactly as we wanted it and more. It was a long but unforgetable day. About scotland will not... More

My boyfriend and our parents just returned from a fantastic trip to Scotland. Ricky at About Scotland helped to create a fantastic itinerary - I just sent him our main destinations with a time frame and he filled in the rest of the trip with lovely sites and hidden gems. He took care of booking our accommodation and also recommended... More
