Bastante aburrida. La guía, que sólo hablaba Inglés, intentó ser amable con los que hablamos español. El audioguia no era útil y decía lo mismo que cualquier búsqueda de Google. El tour se debería llamar "vistas por la carretera" ya que eso fue lo único interesante. El bus era pequeño, muy estrecho.

Pretty bored. The guide, who only spoke English, tried to be friendly to those of us who spoke Spanish. The audio guide was not helpful and said the same as any google search. The tour should be called "views from the road" as that was the only interesting thing. The bus was small, very narrow.

Las audio guías no explicaban a penas nada y no estaban ordenadas…. creo que para los ESPAÑOLES es una excursión que no merece la pena.

The audio guides hardly explained anything and were not organized…. I think that for the SPANISH it is an excursion that is not worth it.

fantástico. hizo un día precioso. El conductor y guía Connor hablaba despacio y claro en inglés. Sabía mucho y el viaje se nos hizo corto. El castillo de Stirling muy bien, lo mejor y al menos los miércoles toca la Orquesta de Stirling dentro a las 13.30 y a las 15.30.Merexe la pena. No había mu ja gente para ser 20 de julio y fue agradable. Lo mejor la paciencia y el buen hacer y la gran ayuda que nos brindo e guía Connors en todo momento [tengo movilidad reducida]. Translate this opinion into English.

fantastic. it was a lovely day. The driver and guide Connor spoke slowly and clearly in English. He knew a lot and the trip was short for us. Stirling Castle very well, the best and at least on Wednesdays the Stirling Orchestra plays inside at 1.30pm and 3.30pm. Merexe is worth it. There weren't many people for July 20th and it was nice. The best is the patience and good work and the great help that Connors gave us and guides at all times [I have reduced mobility]. Opinion translated. Show original.

Aunque el tour bien , el guía grew no hablaba español. Pienso que aunque la excursión sea con audioguia debe de tener un mínimo conocimiento de español por problemas que surjan

Although the tour was good, the guide did not speak Spanish. I think that even if the excursion is with an audio guide, you must have a minimum knowledge of Spanish for problems that arise

Nos entregaron dos tablets para tres personas, una de Ellas no funcionaba el volumen, nos tuvimos qué apañar una para las tres. En el lago nos encontramos perdidas para mirar al menos una vista bonita. Tuvimos que buscarnos la vida para poder hacer unas fotos del lago, echamos de menos alguna indicación, cuándo nos la dijo ya era tarde, aún así conseguimos ver algo. El conductor del bus, muy profesional, lástima qué no hablara algo de español.

They gave us two tablets for three people, one of them did not work the volume, we had to manage one for the three. At the lake we find ourselves at a loss to look at at least one pretty sight. We had to make a living to be able to take some photos of the lake, we missed some indication, when he told us it was already late, even so we managed to see something. The bus driver, very professional, it's a shame he didn't speak some Spanish.

Normalmente, se ofrece una tablet para dos personas, como erais tres, se os dieron dos. Sentimos que una de ellas no funcionara adecuadamente. Se ha informado al proveedor local para que tu comentario sea tenido en cuenta. Translate this opinion into English.

Normally, a tablet is offered for two people, since there were three of you, you were given two. We are sorry that one of them did not work properly. The local supplier has been informed so that your comment can be taken into account. Opinion translated. Show original.

- 4 entradas y me entregan 2 audioguias (no tenían más) - Salimos y las audioguias no funcionan. Lo solucionaron a medias tras la visita a los Kelpies enviando un correo al movil con los audios, que escuchamos el resto del viaje sin auriculares (mi movil es iphone). - Microbus cutre y ventilación rota: Igual hacia frío que un calor insoportable y volví enfermo, pues 5 h son de trayectos - En el lago Lomond, nos dejan una hora (foto y pis) - Castillo de Stirling genial, si tenías entrada (19£)

- 4 tickets and they give me 2 audio guides (they didn't have any more) - We left and the audio guides don't work. They solved it halfway after the visit to the Kelpies by sending an email to the mobile with the audios, which we listened to for the rest of the trip without headphones (my mobile is an iphone). - Shabby minibus and broken ventilation: It was cold as well as unbearably hot and I came back sick, because 5 hours are of journeys - In Loch Lomond, they leave us an hour (photo and pee) - Great Stirling Castle, if you had a ticket (19 £)

Sentimos el problema inicial con las audioguías, aunque nos alegra que pudiera solventarse. Por otro lado, hemos confirmado que la excursión se desarrolló tal y como se describe en nuestra web, incluyendo la hora de tiempo libre en Balmaha. Igualmente, indicamos que la entrada al castillo de Stirling se paga aparte. Aun así, agradecemos y tomamos nota de los comentarios para poder mejorar. Translate this opinion into English.

We are sorry for the initial problem with the audio guides, although we are glad that it could be solved. On the other hand, we have confirmed that the excursion took place as described on our website, including free time in Balmaha. Likewise, we indicate that the entrance to Stirling Castle is paid separately. Even so, we appreciate and take note of the comments in order to improve. Opinion translated. Show original.

Ver Escocia, aunque sea des de la ventana del bus es siempre bonito, pero la excursion decepciona. Solamente estuvimos una hora en el parque nacional. No da tiempo de ver nada, solamente un poco el lago. La parada en los Kelpies sobra. Stirling si es bonita. Si buscas naturaleza ésta no es la excursion adecuada.

Seeing Scotland, even from the bus window, is always nice, but the excursion disappoints. We were only an hour in the national park. There is no time to see anything, only a little of the lake. The stop at the Kelpies is unnecessary. Stirling is pretty. If you are looking for nature this is not the right excursion.

Fue un tour tranquilo y bonito. La entrada al castillo de Stirling hay que pagarla aparte y, si vas con niños, merece la pena. Recomiendo el tour pero a tener en cuenta: - El tour es en inglés y aunque ponga que tiene audioguia no sirven demasiado, tendrás que adaptarte bien al guía. - La parada en Loch Lomond es demasiado breve como para poder recorrer el sendero con tranquilidad.

It was a nice and quiet tour. The entrance to Stirling Castle must be paid separately and, if you go with children, it is worth it. I recommend the tour but to keep in mind: - The tour is in English and even if it says that it has an audio guide, they are not very helpful, you will have to adapt well to the guide. - The stop at Loch Lomond is too short to be able to walk the trail with ease.

Nuestros guías tratan de adaptarse al idioma de los participantes, en este caso, con audioguías. Sentimos el contratiempo. Por otra parte, las paradas dependen en gran parte del cumplimiento de los tiempos de la actividad, y por tanto de factores como el clima, tráfico, o las explicaciones del guía. Tomamos nota de los comentarios para seguir mejorando. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guides try to adapt to the language of the participants, in this case, with audio guides. We are sorry for the inconvenience. On the other hand, the stops depend largely on compliance with the activity times, and therefore on factors such as the weather, traffic, or the guide's explanations. We take note of the comments to continue improving. Opinion translated. Show original.
