2 to 6 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

We run Orkney's only dedicated private hire and tour service, meaning you skip the crowded shared coaches and hanging about terminals. Meet your local driver indoors at the Kirkwall Travel Centre before stepping out into the weather. You book a fixed slot, and your vehicle is waiting before you arrive.

Custom journeys across Orkney from 2 to 6 hours covering your route.

Our standard is simple: we are never on time because we are always early. If we are late by a single minute through our own fault, your first hour is free. You get a direct vehicle, a local driver, and clear instructions before you travel. No meters running in traffic, no agency middlemen, and no guesswork.

    Orkney Islands

    Start your trip indoors at the Kirkwall Travel Centre waiting room, well out of the Orkney weather. Pick the duration that fits your schedule: a two-hour express circuit, a four-hour core tour focusing on the ancient stones, or the six-hour full mainland circuit taking in Skara Brae. You get a fixed, pre-planned route with a local driver at the wheel and plenty of free time to explore each site independently. No forced tour guides, no fluff, just reliable transport to the places worth seeing. Cruise passengers must catch the port shuttle from Hatston to reach the starting point on time. IMPORTANT NOTE : This service does not collect from the cruise ship dock.
