Retiral of (King) James, Heart of Scotland Tours' legendary driver / guide

28 Aug

15th June 2026 - James, one of Heart of Scotland's longest serving driver/guides, has retired this week. We wish him all the very best for the future. Those of you who have toured with James over the years will testify how passionate and enthusiastic he was on tour - a real 'character' - known and liked throughout the industry. He will not only be a loss to Heart of Scotland Tours but to Scottish tourism generally.

On a personal note James has worked alongside me for many years and has been a loyal friend and colleague who'll be missed. Now it's time for a new chapter - onwards and upwards. Slainte Mhath James!!
