Perfect - This trip was a great change from the city on foot. The chauffeur was very nice and humorous. We liked his Scottish accent. He explained a lot, but not too much. Perfect. The 12-hour journey is long, but exciting. Thanks to Harnish the chauffeur

High on highlands!!! - I would highly recommend this tour. My driver Ian was simply amazing. Very energetic, friendly and made sure that all of us were comfortable throughout the journey. He narrated the stories about all the places throughout and gave different analogies based on movies and books. The journey was very smooth and on time. He gave us opportunity to explore all the spots and click photos. This tour is cheaper than the other tour options so go ahead and book this without a doubt.

Forget the rest, just go with Gray Line - Our driver Ian was wonderful guide. Really appreciate him toning down on the accent so that everyone could understand. The day long tour was bearable just because he kept the cheerful vibe alive all along. Besides, this was the cheapest among all the other tour operators when everyone was doing the same tour along the same route. So I would definitely say best value for money when choosing the Highlands day tour.
