Excellent tour. The city is very nice, and the whole tour is worth it. Inverness is a city of very correct people

It was very nice Inverness We loved it, we thought it was a tale of antiquity Much more eager to see Very friendly and respectful people. Let's go back Scotland is really the most beautiful thing we have ever seen, we really liked it. The fields of different colors. The castle, the bridges Everything all veryyyy beautiful

Great tour around

It's a great trip round if you want to see around Inverness without walking too much. Goes passed the castle and towards the cruises. It's about a 50 min round trip. It does get extremely windy at some point especially at the top, so hold on to your hats and wrap up for that part.

Just walk instead

The tour was just OK. It did provide you with a layout of the city. The tour was on taped loop, and was sometimes not in sync with what you were seeing.

It was disappointing....

It was disappointing. Few really beautiful places seen. And the variation wasn't great either. Wouldn't do it again.
