Upcoming small group tours
Having now been on two GeoCultura tours I would recommend them to anyone with an interest in finding out about geology.
The tour leader and his assistant were great. I cannot emphasise how good the tour leaders on both tours have been. It is what has made the tours for me. Their knowledge and the ability to impart it to someone who is not a geologist and make it understandable has been amazing. After all I come on these tours to be educated.
The meals were spectacularly good.

Our expert tour guides are practising geologists, writers, artists, scientists and teachers. They’re also rock climbers, beekeepers, photographers, mountain bikers and bakers. We believe they’re the best in the business.

DISCOVER THE GEOCULTURA WAY
I am delighted to return the form and cannot honestly say enough good things about this wonderfully amazing tour. Ali and Phoebe were the best tour guides I’ve ever travelled with – they are both gems.
Knockan Crag was absolutely the best site, also Calanais and the Old Man of Storr. Having Phoebe and Ali to explain the geology and history made it doubly amazing.
