“What a day for a 63 year old golfer who loves the game. I didn’t get to play the old course but I walked on the fairways and stood on the tee boxes. We walked the town and learned so much about that place. Book this tour on Sunday because there is no golf played on the Old Course on Sunday. The course becomes a public park so you can walk the whole thing if you like. Well worth the minimum expense.”

“We had a wonderful day on this tour! The best part was Lady Jane's Tower and the views, OMG, the views!!!! St. Andrew's was beautiful, but we needed more time there. By the time we walked to grab food, we barely had enough time to do the castle tour, much less explore the picturesque town. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Scotland and was able to answer all of our questions! It also helped that we had a beautiful sunny day--I even got some new freckles!”

His knowledge about the history of the Kingdom of Fife and his personalized service while we visited Saint Andrews was perfectly explained where we could appreciate the information without being overwhelmed.

We have traveld to several countries and have used private tour guides however, Sean and Beryl were the best.”

“Visited the main St Andrews shop in Scotland, the gentleman in the shop was extremely helpful, knowledgeable about the watches, how made, history of the brand and wide array of faces and straps available.

Very very pleased, thank you Kartel Watches. From Jonathan Stuart.”
