Marlene’s minibus provided extremely reliable hop-on-and-off among the famous historical sites. She is very knowledgeable too - giving me useful insights by presenting the rich history, epic and local folklores of Orkney vividly accompanying both maps and pictures. Thoroughly enjoyed it, would recommend!

We spent a wonderful day exploring Orkney with Marlene. She treated us as friends and adapted our itinerary based on the weather and our interests. As a native, her knowledge of the area and its history is excellent. She also introduced us to several of her friends, human as well as animal. We highly recommend Marlene for any Orkney tour!

Hotel opposite to the main ferry terminal so always something to watch from the window. Room on large side and very comfortable. Bathroom has bath, very important to my hubby. Food very good. Kitchen willing to accommodate food preferences and allergy needs. Staff friendly and helpful. Hotel short walk from town centre
