Traveler reviews
Amazing experience
Loved the energy that our driver/tour guide brought (Alistair for the win). He had great music playing, made a playlist with our song suggestions and even gave us a little Scottish treat on the last day. Would definitely recommend a tour with him! Above and beyond the typical tour guide experience! 🏴🥰
Amazing!
Alister was an absolutely fantastic guide. He had so much knowledge and a great sense of humor. We loved our tour and would recommend it to anyone - just make sure you’re with Alister!
Great time in the Highlands
Graeme really made everything work for the trip. He was organized and very informational. His fund of knowledge is truly exceptional. The excursion covered a lot of ground in 3 days.
Fun in the Highlands and the Isle of Skye
Graeme, our guide, was excellent! He was both knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Our weather was not great, but he kept it fun. The only thing we would recommend to those that have more time is to do the longer tours. Our tour, being only three days, did feel a bit rushed.
Had such a wonderful time
I had such an amazing time, it’s truly spectacular scenery - like mind blowing. Alistair was amazing, he knew so much and really made the long bus rides super interesting, Paul was so lovely as well, together they created such a fun and comfortable environment
