What will my tour include?

• Full-Day Tour With a full day (approximately 8 hours), I’ll take you to St Andrews (and / or Falkland) as part of your Full-Day tour and I will show you the best of the East Neuk’s villages. I can also tailor an itinerary to suit your preferred interests. More interested in in shopping than history? Hoping to see heritage properties or beautiful views? Want to focus on fishing boats or castles or foodie stops? I can make that happen!

  Half-Day Tour This 4-hour option means splitting the tour time between St Andrews (or Falkland) and one or two of the East Neuk villages.

• *Rate includes: 1 to 3 people, transport and fuel for the agreed itinerary, with a dedicated driver-guide for up to 4 hours (half-day) and up to 8 hours (full-day).

• *Rate does not include: any entrance fees and your food and drink. Let me know your preferences and I can make recommendations.

How do I book?

Before you pay any deposit, let’s check we’re a good fit! Start by telling me:

1. Dates - when would you like to do this tour?

2. Pick-up/drop-off - Leuchars/St Andrews or Edinburgh* (*extra charge of £100).

3. Number - how many people are in your group.

You can do this by filling out the form below, or by emailing me. I will confirm availability and send you some questions to help me understand your wishlist. I’ll send a very rough outline based on this. If you are happy to go ahead, you will be invited to pay a deposit of £100 to secure your booking. (This deposit is non-refundable but will be deducted from the total of your final balance due.) I will then craft your itinerary, tweaking it with you until we have your finalised itinerary, including daily stops and timings, optional excursions, suggested references and any additional reading.
