Our vehicles will be parked at the port and our drivers and tour guides will hold a sign of Bannockburn Tours waiting for our clients. The tour wont be started until we collect all of the confirmed passengers or 30 mins after the actual docking time. So we would be appreciated if you can get off the ship as soon as you can so that you wont miss the tour. And we will make sure that our vehicles will be back on time (around 1 hour ahead of the sailing time) so that our clients have no problem to catch up the ship.
