Awesome experience with Go-Go Tours Scotland
Sep 2023 • Family
We took George’s Inveraray Castle and Loch Fyne tour from the Greenock Cruise Port. George was very accommodating and an excellent guide. He was pleasant, and answered many questions from us about the area. The drive through the highlands was beautiful, as was the castle. We stopped for a lovely lunch, then in a cute village with a bit of shopping and a stop at an ancient church and cemetery. We highly recommend Go/go Tours when in Greenock/Glasgow.

George Martin was a delightful guide for our group of eight. He was quite knowledgeable and he was certain that we made good use of our time while visiting Stirling Castle and the Loch Lomond region. I do recommend George for your outing!

George entertained and educated us from Greenock to Stirling and back. He is charming and we’d definitely book another excursion with him!

A Wonderful Day With George
Sep 2023 • Couples
George was the perfect host and guide in and outside of Stirling Castle. Loved the space that we had in his modern, clean van, and with his Scottish brogue, the stories and history lessons made for a most enjoyable day.
George was very flexible and worked with us in scheduling a tour that fit all eight of us, in addition to the ship’s schedule.
George was very aware of our time constraints, and made sure that we were back onboard the ship with plenty of time before departure.
What a wonderful way to see this part of Scotland!

The highlight of our British Isles trip
Aug 2023 • Couples

Went on a 9 day British Isles cruise. We did 2 private tours (including this one,) 3 bus tours, 1 rail/bus combo tour, and one self-guided excursion. My husband and I both agree that our Scotland tour with George was our favorite day of the trip. I e-mailed back and forth with him prior to the trip. I gave him a list of places we most wanted to visit. He advised and planned a route that was the perfect combination of squeezing in as many sites as possible, but with enough time as to not be rushed. He was there at the port waiting for us before our scheduled time. His van was clean, comfortable, and kindly stocked with a cooler of bottled water. We visited Stirling Castle, The National Wallace Monument, Loch Lomond, had a lovely lunch, and saw a lot of beautiful scenery in between. George is very knowledgeable and was able to answer questions and tell us about various points of interest along the way. Meeting George, it was immediately like spending the day with a good friend. He even provided us with a “wee dram” at the end of the day so we could give a toast “to Scotland!” Highly recommend.

An excellent private tour experience
Aug 2023 • Family
Our day touring with George was a highlight of our two week trip! He is an absolute gentlemen with encyclopedic knowledge of Scottish history and all the sites we visited. He is also an experienced guide who planned and managed our day perfectly. We could have spent all day with him at Stirling Castle alone! George’s passion for his work is infectious and our family could not say enough good things about our time with him. Absolutely recommend.

Stirling Castle and Lomond day trip
Jul 2023 • Friends

Our family met up for a family reunion – we came from Scotland, England and Sweden for almost a week together staying in Skelmorlie. We booked a Go-Go Private Day Tour with George Martin. The Tour took in Stirling Castle, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs.

It was a fabulous day out with George collecting us at the door of our holiday accommodation. The transport was first-class – very clean and comfortable with George driving and pointing out all places of interest en route. George is a most welcoming, thoughtful, knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Our family cannot recommend his Tours highly enough.

Well done George – from the Goodwins.

Unforgettable day trip with George!

I booked a private day trip to Largs and the Isle of Cumbrae because I had specific places I wanted to see but not a lot of time. Sure enough, George obliged me by picking me up just as the overnight Sleeper got in from London. He had the whole day planned so I didn’t have to worry about anything from supplying a comfortable and clean 8 seater to complimentary water, offering to take fotos and even a dram when we were atop the summit of Cumbrae. He is one of life’s genuine characters with a great wit and warmth about him from his years of experience, so it really felt like hanging out with a friend as we drove around Cumbrae, then journeying to
Portencross Castle, Auchentoshan and just making the last tasting at Glengoyne Distilleries thanks to his superb driving amid tons of jovial banter and laughter. When he dropped me back in Glasgow it was like I’d known him for years, he really is a top bloke that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Great tour – great tour guide!
We hired George Martin for a tour of Inveraray Castle and Loch Fyne tour for four people months in advance of our cruise to the British Isles. George was great corresponding before the tour, picked us up on time as scheduled, and crammed a lot of information and sights into the 6-7 hours we spent with him. We pretty much left the itinerary up to him and we were not disappointed. George knew the area, the history and what we’d enjoy seeing and we left wanting more. Can’t miss if you pick George for your tour – we were more than pleased.

Great day tracing roots
We had an excellent day with George tracing our roots in Scotland. I provided him with a variety of locations we wanted to see and he took us to each and gave us a flavor of Scotland and some background on each area. He was not afraid to ask locals about areas we stopped and showed a real interest in helping get as much out of the trip as we could. We really enjoyed his company as well.

Tour of Loch Lomond, Kippen, and Greenock
We hired George Martin to pick us up at the Greenock port on our last day of our Scotland cruise. He was very punctual and was waiting for us when we got off. We communicated a lot by email before our day together to customize a day trip that would benefit us for the one day we had in this area. I wanted to visit the town of Kippen (my surname) and also experience Loch Lomund since I had heard so much about it. George customized a day that was perfect for what we wanted and took us to a great place for lunch overlooking Loch Lomund called Duck Bay Restaurant. He provided us with a historical tour of the area and took us to a great lookout point in Greenock. George was very knowledgeable, pleasant, and personable. When I mentioned that I knew many Scottish songs – like the Loch Lomund song – he found and played them for us. This excursion was a very memorable part of our great Scotland vacation. Thank you, George,!

VIP day trip
George came to our rescue when our tour with another provider got cancelled at the last minute. We were extremely grateful to George for stepping in at short notice. George took us on a tour to Loch Lomond, including Luss, Stirling Castle and the William Wallace Monument as per our request. He was very knowledgeable, and humorous and we enjoyed learning about the history. Thank you George for enabling us to enjoy our day trip around the sites, it would not have been the same had we attempted to do it ourselves.

Great day with George around the Glasgow area!! 
We did a private tour with George. We didn’t want to do the ship excursion tour, so we booked Go-Go Private tours. We had an absolute blast with George. He was very knowledgeable about everywhere we went and made it a super fun day!!! The van was very nice and he had bottles of waters for us. I would definitely recommend him to book a private tour!!!

Outstanding Day Trip from Greenock/Glasgow
We booked George Martin for a private day tour from the Greenock cruise terminal. We don’t like the ship’s bus tours with 50 people and much prefer a small group. We had a party of 6 adults. The first thing we noted was that George’s van was a pleasure to ride in: clean, comfortable and relaxing. George led us on a lovely tour that included Stirling Castle, Aberfoyle, and picturesque stops in Loch Lomond including Balmaha and Duck Bay. Throughout the day, George entertained and educated us with background information, stories and insights. He is fun, charming and a fount of interesting information.

Day trip in Scotland
We had a delightful day with George of Go-Go Tours. He created an itinerary which included a tour of Loch Lomond and then drove us to Portavadie where we joined our family. He is very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with.

Amazing George Martin, Scottish Guide
George created an amazing 4 day itinerary for us around western Scotland, Troon, Ayr, and Glasgow. We visited castles, gardens (full of May rhododendrons), ruins, and museums. His choice of the Burrell Collection was our absolute favorite! George is very knowledgable about history and geography which he shared with us while driving safely in his comfortable van. He is amiable, patient, and flexible with lots of Scottish humor. Thanks, George, for answering all our questions!
