Worth every penny

I’ve travelled the world, but this tour is one I will always remember. Our guide Douggie is mostly responsible for that. His knowledge of the vast region, its history and special backroads made the trek all the more pleasurable. Worth every penny. Tip…choose the B&B’s. They’re awesome!

Outstanding tour!

Lee, our driver/tour guide, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the history and answered all of our questions. He was also very thoughtful and considerate to make sure everyone was enjoying the experience. The itinerary was full but we did have some time to rest during longer drives. It was the perfect combination of activities. This tour makes me want to return to Scotland to experience more of this beautiful country.

Perfect tour to experience the Highlands

A great tour where Brodie really did everything possible to get the best out of it. His selection of history, stories and music provided a silver lining to the whole experience. Also, the setup was perfect with two nights in Inverness.

Doesn’t drop you back in Glasgow

Ben, our guide, was a great driver, very knowledgeable and did a good job with keeping things moving efficiently. The only downside is that the tour information claims you get dropped back at the pickup location which is only true for those picked up in Edinburgh. They give you a train ticket if you have to go back to Glasgow which is not as advertised so plan for an extra hour
