VISITSCOTLAND EXPO  -  FAMILIARIZATION TRIP TO SCOTLAND

FOR TRAVEL AGENTS FROM NORTH AMERICA

 

Our coach and guide were with the agents throughout their trip – which resulted in many new friends and much tourism business returning to Scotland. The tour we were facilitating was: “The City Experience”. Here are a few comments from agents on tour... 

Paul,  Sorry to take so long to respond...I had an absolute brilliant time with ya'll in Scotland! I really did not want to do the City tour  and I begged VisitScotland to let me do the Shetlands tour which they refused...so much the better for me, otherwise I would have never met you, Colin and Liz. You made Glasgow fun! I actually want to go back to Glasgow something I never thought I wanted to do before. If those four days are an example of how you conduct business, I have every confidence in you and your company.    Slainte!  Janis

Paul, Wow! What a great note to receive upon arrival home. I can't tell you, Liz and Colin what a wonderful time I had with mclean scotland. Colin was a wonderful tour guide - so knowledgeable, informative, witty and kind. Just wish we could have spent more time with Liz, but understand her responsibilities, too. The night out in Glasgow was delightful! I will definitely keep your company in mind when thinking about tours in Scotland. Several of us seemed to reach that agreement while we took a few minutes to rehash the trip.    Sharon

Dear Paul and Liz  I wanted to thank you first for a great four days of excellent guidance from the time we arrived in Edinburgh until we departed at the Ardoe House in Aberdeen - along with the great "animation" from Colin and the company of Liz. With Alex (visitscotland) being added to the group, it was great to see such an energetic young man doing such a great job! Again, thank you for your direction and education while in Scotland.    Dave

Hi Paul, I had a wonderful time in Scotland with you and Colin, a good guide and a well run tour company make all of the difference in the world. I was very impressed with your professionalism as well as you humor and your ability to guide us to the best pubs around. But seriously, I will be looking to put together a group most likely 2006 or 07. Please know you are at the top of my list.  Sheila
