Enjoyed the tour
"My friend, Catherine, was the one who found Tours4Fun online. She was the one doing the planning and booking online and purchased the package. Our 1-Day Rosslyn Chapel & the Scottish Borders Tour was very nice. We went to a variety of places. We saw the statue of William Wallace and went to Melrose Abbey. There was a third stop before we finally went to Rosslyn Chapel, which was the last stop on the tour. It was a positive experience and I enjoyed the tour. The next time we go to Scotland we would certainly consider Tours4Fun. They gave us a nice tour and our tour guide was knowledgeable about the events he spoke of"
