Amazing! Totally recommend It was an amazing experience! The guide (William) created an amazing experience allowing us to see, understand the historical context of the places. We did more of what was planned and allowed us to visit so many amazing places, understand the facts behind the places, always with the best environment. Because it was a short group(8people) it's easier to follow up. It was the best experience. I fully recommend and if you were lucky to have William as your guide , you will learn a lot of the history in a great environment. Overall I love it. Thank you

Top views of Loch Ness from castle and Culloden battle field were highlights of tour by great guide. The tour guide, Malcom, was great, plenty of historic information and background stories. Adapted trip to make best use of time according to available time and the weather. Locations visited were worth the trouble, pick up / drop off spot was convenient.

Amazing scenery Naturally the weather wasn't the best on the day of our tour but we had a great tour in spite of that. Malcolm, our guide, was amazing. Very knowledgeable and an excellent driver.

Niall is a National Treasure-Book this! We had an outstanding day with Niall! Would unconditionally recommend this trip! Niall is a treasure trove of Scottish history and folk lore. He is so entertaining and informative. He made the 9 hour trip, which had the potential of being a boring van trip, into an delightful and informative experience.

Excellent Day! We had a great day out with Mike! The weather wasn’t playing the game but we still had a great time. If we missed anything due to the rain - we didn’t notice it. We didn’t feel like we missed out on anything, and Mike let us stop a number of times to see every aspect of the highlands. This tour is definitely a lot of driving, but I enjoyed looking out at the scenery as we went. Mike gave us lots of opportunities to stop along the way, get out to stretch our legs and take a few photos. Overall - we had the best trip to Skye, despite the weather, all thanks to our tour guide Mike. Thanks again!

Best Day Ever Robbie was an amazing tour guide! He is very knowledgeable about the history of each location we visited as well as the places that we passed while on the road. The sites we visited were so interesting and the views are breathtaking. I highly recommend spending a day on this tour.

September Skye A trip to Skye through beautiful glens, with water cascading down the slopes. In late September, the highlands were just beginning to shift to a warm autumnal palette. As expected, we had a medley of weather. Drew, our guide was very cheerful and pleasant, dotting the trip with history and humor, making the journey very enjoyable.
