About Me

I specialise in tours of the Island of Hoy in the Orkney Islands, where a warm welcome awaits you.   Hoy is the second largest island (55 Sq Miles/143 Km2) in the Orkney archipelago with a population of approximately only 400 residents.   

Hoy is unique, and very different from the Orkney Mainland and other isles.   The vertical cliffs are the highest in the British Isles, there are vast swathes of wilderness, an abundance of wildlife, with a history stretching from the Neolithic era to modern day. 

Whilst there are many other driver guides on mainland Orkney I am the only one based on Island of Hoy, also a qualified World Host, (excellence in customer service) and MIDAS-qualified      (Minibus Driver Awareness Scheme).   

I am enthusiastic about all types of tours, whether they be individual, group, bespoke, coach, walking tours or for cruise ships.     I have a wealth of experience and an expert in my local environment, which will help you achieve a wonderful and memorable day out, taking in all that the beautiful Island of Hoy has to offer, which will meet and likely to exceed your expectations. 

Being a resident on the Island of Hoy and living in the village of Longhope on the shore of Scapa Flow, I can give you a unique insight into island life and what it’s like to live in such a beautiful and remote location.
