Overview

Born and bred in Orkney, I’ve (probably) seen it all. From Neolithic ruins older than the pyramids to WWII bunkers, Viking graffiti, and the occasional sheep traffic jam.

My private tours aren’t just about ticking off sites; they’re about stories, hidden corners, and a local’s take you won’t find in the guidebooks. Every tour is tailored to you, no cookie-cutter itineraries or crowded buses, just relaxed exploring at your pace.

Travel is in a comfy SUV or 4x4 (up to 4 adults), with the flexibility to reach places bigger tours can’t. Tickets for sites like Skara Brae aren’t included, but I can pick them up at cost or you can pre-book to dodge queues.

Whether you’re here for a day, off a cruise, or staying longer, I’ll make sure you see Orkney in a way that’s memorable, fun, and different.

And if I’m not available, I’ve got a small team of trusted local guides who can step in so you’re still in good hands. Want to know more? Just search Historic Orkney online.
