What a wonderful tour experience in Orkney! I highly recommend this fun, friendly and informative tour. We learned so much, and felt incredibly connected to these islands, the locals, and all of the recent and ancient history. We were astounded! The food was delicious, and the sites were truly awe inspiring, Paul even set up a wild swim for us in the North Sea and he joined in! The whole Neolithic Tour was a stellar experience all around. Thank you Jane and Paul, and all of Orkney for the tour of a lifetime!

JPOrkney Tours We would like to thank Paul for the memorable day trip around Orkney earlier this month. I am not sure where to begin… Paul made it a fantastic day for me, my 2 adult daughters as well as my 6 year old granddaughter. Not only did we visit historic sites but enjoyed some beach breaks making Rosie very happy too. At one such stop we enjoyed a lovely picnic lunch prepared by Jane, packed with delicious offerings from her side of the business. Paul showed great knowledge and enthusiasm for each of the sites we visited. His familiarity with the islands, the people and events certainly make planning the remainder of our stay that much more enjoyable. This day will not soon be forgotten and we all hope to be back and already know we will have Paul help us make more memories. Please treat yourself to a day with JPOrkney! Catherine, Steph, Katie and Rosie

What an experience! Paul arrived right on time and gave us an amazing tour of Orkney in his all-electric van. He was very knowledgeable about the history, plants and birds, local energy, and life on Orkney, both past and present. Thank you for a memorable day as well as the delicious JP Orkney picnic.

‘The perfect Orkney tour’

Orkney tours with Paul

A perfect guided tour

We visited Orkney specially to see the Neolithic sites and Paul was our guide. He is very knowledgeable about the sites, their excavations and findings. He designed a tour that was perfect for us fitting in with the tides and the limited access time to one of the sites. As well as showing us what we had come for, he also gave us a great tour of Orkney and showed us much of the lovely coastline, views of the other islands and beaches. Travel was in an electric people carrier, very comfortable, with a picnic lunch overlooking a beautiful sandy beach. The picnic included foods grown locally prepared by Paul and Jane. Yummy.

Orkney tours with Paul

It was a perfect day

We were on an 11-night cruise, and our stay in Orkney was the highlight of our entire trip! Paul was a wonderful guide and we loved exploring the islands with him. JP Orkney provided us with a delicious lunch, and because of the great weather we were able to enjoy this picnic overlooking the ocean. All in all it was a perfect day. Looking forward to our next visit, and having another tour with JP Orkney.

Thank you Paul for the perfect visit

I waited to post this until our three-week British Isles and Northern Europe cruises were complete. After visiting 20 locations, hands down, JP Orkney provided the best shore tour for the entire trip. From the very start of planning our excursion, I was impressed. Their website is well done, Paul was prompt in all of his communications, and he provided an excellent list of sites to see. When we arrived at the port he was there waiting for us. He was very knowledgeable about the sites as well as answering our constant questions about the Kirkwall area […] Thank you Paul for the perfect visit, and the jam was excellent. Bravo!
