Highlands with Chris

I went together with my friends and we had a greet time with our driver Chris. He drove us safely through the narrow and curvy roads of the highlands. Lots of funny facts and history about the Scot’s. Loved the music, showing us local artists, songs about tales or bag pipe songs. The train at the viaduct came exactly at 3:10 like he said. Definitely a day to remember!

Outstanding Glenfinan, Glencoe tour

We booked with get your guide, what can I say Keith was our guide/driver and he was superb. Not a bad word to say about the experience only positive things. His driving was very good, great knowledge and explained things well, he also had a great sense of humour, we had plenty of times to stop at each place and best of all we got to see the Harry Potter steam train cross over the viaduct! I highly recommend, great value for money and very convenient as pick up and drop off is in Edinburgh city centre😁

Review

We had a great time on this bus tour! We saw so many beautiful places and managed to see the famous train as well, which was definitely a highlight of the day. Our guide Leon was fantastic — he had lots of interesting stories and some really original jokes that made the journey even more enjoyable. He kept the atmosphere fun and entertaining throughout the whole trip. Everything was well organised, and we really enjoyed the experience. Would definitely recommend this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Leon as your guide!
