2-Day Oban & West Highlands Tour

I chose this specific tour because I am not fluent in the language and trusted that a guide would not only drive but also provide support, so it was a disappointment. Her name is Louise, and she drives an orange bus. She is actually from Scotland but did not make a real effort to be understandable. Worse, when she talked with someone not fluent in English, she made no effort to understand them. I demonstrated many times that I did not understand the instructions, and she had no patience to repeat them. At one point, we stopped at a castle, and I said (again), 'I don't understand what we have to do here.' She just said that it was not recommended to buy tickets. I understood that there was a 25-minute parade, so I used that time. When I returned, she was already about to leave. My husband ran to the bus, explaining that I have knee problems, so I cannot run. Then, she came to me and started yelling at me in front of everyone. It was so embarrassing; the rest of the passengers barely enjoyed the last attraction. After this, I give up to any interactiom

This 3 day tour was brilliant! Our driver Stephen was great with the History and stories for everywhere we went and very helpful in anything that we needed. The whole trip was amazing just like the scenery and there are loads of stops in between locations to take in the local beauty spots. I highly recommend this tour. This is my 3rd tour with the hairy coo and as always you feel like your travelling in luxury as the buses are always clean, well kept, plenty of space, modern and the seats are so comfortable.

My mum and I just returned from the 3-day Oban, Mull, and West Highlands tour, and it was the absolute highlight of our trip. Our guide, Stephen, was world-class. His deep historical knowledge and captivating local stories turned every stop—from the ancient mysteries of Kilmartin Glen to the cinematic Glenfinnan Viaduct—into a living legend. The itinerary is a perfect "best of" Scotland. We saw it all: the towering Kelpies, the serenity of Luss on Loch Lomond, the rugged beauty of Glencoe, and the colorful charm of the Isle of Mull. If you want a stress-free, immersive, and truly fantastic way to experience the soul of the Highlands, look no further. Highly recommended!

We did a private 2 day tour of the central highlands. Freddie Johnson was our tour guide. Freddie provides exceptional commentary, music and discussions while touring. He has a delightful sense of humor and outstanding driver. Every bit of our tour experience was memorable. I will ask for Freddie as tour guide if I am blessed to return again to Scotland!

It was a small group of 6 ppl. We were able to make chnges as if we were on a private tour. The driver / toru guide was amazing. He had plenty of ideas about what to see, what restaurants to go to... Definitely recommend doing Hairy Coo's 2-day tour
