The weather was beautiful...

The weather was beautiful and our tour guide Alan was very nice. However from the very start of the trip Alan kept informing everyone that we were behind schedule even though no one was late to the tour. Throughout the whole tour there was consistent reminders that we weren’t going to have a much time at destinations as allocated and that even though they’re considered ‘extra stops’ we would not have time to go to said stops. It grew very frustrating to hear this considering the tour left on time. I can respect that customers were not listening to times at certain stops but I think the biggest issue was just how frequently time was being spoken about and having this feeling of missing out etc whereas if times had been needed to be cut and perhaps not been expressed quite as much it wouldn’t have felt disappointing. All this being said Alan was friendly and informative but just a little too stressed at times that didn’t feel warranted.

Oot Billy, Best man on the bus

We had a lovely time, with a nice small group. A perfectly balanced tour between sights, photo ops and culinary brakes (seafood shack in Oban has been my personal favorite) All of that, topped off by Billy our tourguide who was very welcoming lad, with a lot of knowledge, side notes, stories and (morbid;) fun facts all around the trip, it’s been a great pleasure!

Brilliant tour!

Our tour with Billy was fantastic - good number of stops over the day and interesting viewpoints. Billy was a fantastic guide and made sure we were well looked after! Would definitely book another tour when we're next in Scotland.
