Traveler reviews
Impressive and touching experimente
We enjoyed the trip very much, no wonder with this guide: Dusty (David) is extremely entertaining, allways friendly (even if his time schedules had been regularly blown 😉) and an exceptionally good and experienced driver with whom we never had a dangerous Situation on the road. We learned a lot about the Highlands and Skye and enjoyed Dustys comments and stories at any time. Last but not least it was also the group of mostly young people from all over the world which made the trip a success. Thanks to everyone who participated.
Highly educative & picturesque tour filled with great stories & views
Duty's passion about Scottish history and events flowed in flawless aptly timed stories that made every stop at castles, monuments & landscapes very memorable- as well as the heart tugging myths & legends about storr & mountains & everything about Skye lit up with his good cheer & humour- wishing many more such experiences on future tours. Cheers
Lovely experience
