Customer Service from Manageress and Staff! I visited on Monday 21st August 2023 and they went that extra mile for me. I had purchased an item on Mull the previous Monday. It was too small and an exchange not pos due to colour. Full refund Excellent friendly professional service. Delighted. P A Taddei

Many don’t think to review information centres but purely the places visited from their recommendations and I’m one of those guilty parties. St Andrews iCentre is first class in the services warmly provided. The staff have immense knowledge and love of what they do. Have used their services for personal use and recommended many people to do likewise but being a temporary resident in the centre, giving out tastings of local produce I can really feel their passion for the local and wider Scotland. experiences on offer. Colin and team… you really fly the flag 🏴

The welcome was friendly without being pushy and the man I spoke to was knowledgeable and helpful. I received a clear map and practical information about bus services.
In addition the shop looked well-stocked with nice gifts, books and postcards.

We arrived just as head honcho Colin McKillop was putting out the board to show the office was now open for the day. And we were greeted like we were family! Both him and his lady colleague could not have been nicer.
He gave me two tips that were to prove vital, and the lady even knew what premises were used to house the long defunct Victoria Wine company, who I used o visit 41 years previously! (For you anoraks out there, it is now Mountain Warehouse!)
Outstanding service.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to write such a super review! It has really made me smile that you were 'greeted like family' - a great start to your trip to St Andrews. iCentre teams enjoy all enquiries but especially those which really make them think. Your Victoria Wine one would have done just that for Nicole!
Thank you for naming Colin too - I know this will have made his day.
I really hope you had a wonderful trip to St Andrews and that you will return again in the future, to be welcomed in the same way.
Kind regards

I cannot rave about how wonderful this place is. The staff were warm, welcoming and eager to help, in particular, Donna was incredibly helpful and a wee ray of sunshine on a rather dreich day! They have a wide array of leaflets and maps to help with your trip and a lovely shop to buy souvenirs. This is the best place to start a trip in St Andrews. I can't wait to explore more with their help.

Together with my wife, we visited St Andrews VisitScotland iCentre, where we met some very friendly people.
They help us with some precious information about the attractions of the city.
Also, there we bought some souvenirs.

Departing from Edinburgh on Tuesday 14th June. Will drive up to St Andrews district probably continue on to stay in Aberdeen?
What are my chances of hitting a ball on a gold course somewhere?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
