Traveler reviews
Half day tour stretched to a full day.
The morning was wonderful. Standing stones and the Culloden moor. The problem came after that. Went to Beauly for lunch but if was Sunday. Nothing was open although there was one place but you needed reservations. Lunch ends up being buying sandwiches from the market and eating them on a bench in the parking lot waiting for bus to return. We paid for this experience. š¤. Then off to glen afric. Not worth it. It had been a rainy day and in order to see anything you needed to walk up a lot of slippery steps or down a bunch of slippery steps. I did neither due to a bad knee so sat at a picnic table waiting to leave. The afternoon was a waste and I canāt believe we paid for that. Morning was awesome and they should stick with a half day tour.
Excellent experience
Our guide Charlie was extremely professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and jolly! We learned lot about each stop as well as Scottish history.
Rabbie and Charlie
Charlie was an exceptional tour guide. He was amusing and informative, even taught us a little Gaelic. Hahahaha! We had plenty of time to experience Clara Cairns and learn some history as well as Outlander trivia, then visit Culloden. We had an extra stop to visit some highland coos on our way to Glen Affric where we had some beautiful hiking and views. Rabbie tours and Charlie are a must experience. Had a blast.
Excellent Tour
This was a great tour. Our tour guide gave us so much information about each stop. Well worth the time.
More time (and less people) at Culloden, pleaseā¦
Loved Clara Cairns and Culloden but definitely wished we had more time at Culloden. I donāt know if there is a better way to manage all the tour groups descending on these sites at the same time but both places were crowded with groups when we were there. At Culloden, I had to rush through the museum so I could have time to walk the battlefield, which didnāt really matter because the museum was so crowded I couldnāt get close to most of the exhibits anyway. Walking Culloden moor was well worth it though. You could get away from everyone and hear the ghosts whispering. I enjoyed seeing Beuly Priory as well but could have done without hiking around Ben Afric in the rain. I would recommend that as a separate hiking oriented trip so those who are not interested in hiking can have more time engulfed in history.
