I did five van tours in five days with several tour companies and my trip with rabbies had the most entertaining guide! James was knowledgeable about a wide range of topics and an excellent story teller! The van was clean and comfortable and James was also a good driver. The stop at the Jedburgh abbey was nice, though the entire town was apparently closed that early on a Sunday morning. But the stops along Hadrian’s wall were amazing and we had plenty of time to explore. The stop at Vindolanda was unexpectedly cool! It’s an active archeological dig of a Roman fort and village with its own guides, a museum, gift shop and cafe. I haven’t been to Rome yet, but I’ve stood on an excavated ancient Roman road! A great trip, great guide and highly recommend!
