A trip that is definitely worth taking! - The tour guide, Brian, did an amazing job throughout the entire trip. He presented all the information about the sights in a very humorous way, which kept the whole bus in a constant good mood. The first stop of the trip was supposed to be a visit to the Highland cows, but unfortunately, they weren’t at the location. However, Brian took us to another place at the end of the trip so that we could still see some cows. This was extremely generous of him, and we truly appreciate this wonderful experience! (Regarding the program, we might suggest a small change: we think more time could have been spent in Pitlochry, while less time in Fort William might have worked better:)

Excellent! - I took the Highlands + Glenfinan tour with Keith, and it really exceeded my expectations. It's long, yes, it's tiresome, yes, but the views are totally worth it. Keith makes the trip more enjoyable by telling the story of the places, and helps you with the best tips to have those photos that we want so much, and also so that we avoid crowding, you can tell when someone is happy doing what they do, Keith conveys it, as well as the concern for all of us, that we do not miss anything. Very nice detail take us to feed Hairy Cows. 100% recommended. Thank you so much!

Best tour with the most amazing guide Stewart. - It was the best tour with guid I have ever been on and I travel a lot!!! I can warmly recommend this trip and with Stewart as a guide. He was fantastic. There was an extra stop on the road - and of course Stewart had to arrange for carrots to feed the highlands cows with. 😍 I will definitely go on this trip again - when I visit beautiful Scotland Thank you for the best 12 hour trip. ❤️

Great daytrip into the countryside, good value for money. - Great daytrip into the countryside of Scotland. Our enthousiastic tourguide and chauffeur Keith entertained us with interesting and funny stories. Good combination of history and nature just what we wanted. If you are staying in Edinburgh definitely spend a day on this tour. It even kept my teenager awake most of the journey ;-) He really enjoyed it too. Keep up the dad jokes Keith!

Lovely day to the highlands - This was a great tour to see the highlands and the viaduct, the train was not running though because it is winter. Brian, the guide, told us a lot of insightful stories and entertained us with lovely tunes. Would definitely recommend this tour, but for those who have the chance, do it in spring/summer.

Great tip!! - A really great trip! Our driver and tour guide, Scott, was awesome. He was really friendly, super knowledgeable about the history, and a great story teller. It’s a long trip, but worth it to see multiple locations in one day with ease.
