Experience Scotland Differently - Tours

Do you yearn to see Scotland through the eyes of an experienced guide, but don't want to be constrained by rigid itineraries ? Most package tours keep strict schedules, leaving you feeling like you've seen a bunch of stuff, but haven't experienced the real Scotland at your own pace. I'm Torsten and believe your holiday belongs to you. Through 25 years of living in and exploring Scotland, I provide tours based on my local knowledge and connections throughout this beautiful landscape. But here is the deal, you are in control. You can check some sample tours on my website, but if you want to change something we can fix it in the spur of the moment. If you want a tour that's catered to you, if you want to do what makes you happy or if you just want to chill in the Tipi in my Cozy Corner just drop me an e-mail and we can sort it out. I'm looking forward looking after you.
