We arrived in Edinburgh the day after the Queen passed away. We were informed the night before that Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace were closed. William was very helpful coming up with a new plan. We went to see the Kelpies and Sterling Castle. Both were fantastic! William was our tour guide at Sterling Castle. Very informative. Thank you for turning what could have been a disastrous day into a great one!!!

Just talking with our driver...and the overall comfort of having that luxourious car to keep items in as we traveled the day with a 6 month old and 2 year old. It was never an issue, and made visiting different locations with kids a breeze!
