Great day trip to the Scottish highlands - My husband, 18 yo daughter and I had a great day out today in the Scottish highlands. Thanks to our guide/driver Finn (with an O!). He provided a great experience - a very interesting commentary with lots of historical information (which we loved), safe driving and a great DJ! Although the diminishing daylight affected our views at the very end of the tour, it was timed so that we could make the very best of the highlands in the December light. We would highly recommend this tour.

A terrific day in the Highlands - I can't imagine a better tour guide than Michael O'Brien. The whole day was terrific. Michael varied the pace and the mood beautifully with great information, stories, and personal insights. We highly, highly recommend this tour and this company. And thank you again, Michael!

It was very relaxing and... - It was very relaxing and the group was small which made it less stressful, especially as someone who was by themselves

A Must - Do - The tour was very fun and the atmosphere was amazing ! Our tour guide Jamie was the real deal, balancing between historical facts and humorous stories and lines made the trip memorable ! All the info he shared with us plus his explanatory talks made us to “Discover Scotland”! The are no words to describe the viewpoints and sights of the tour! Totally recommend it! Enjoy!

Great experience! - This tour was the highlight of our trip. Our guide, Jamie, was very friendly and really took extra care to make sure we have a good time while sharing with us info about the region's history. Great sense of humor too. The landscapes are breathtaking and you get a nice and personal experience due to the small tour groups.

Fantastic experience, will for sure be back for a multi-day tour next time! :) - We enjoyed our Discover Scotland Tours: Glenfinnan Viaduct & the Highlands Tour soooooo much - we loved the absolutely mesmerizing nature and scenery, all the interesting stories we heard along the way, we loved learning more about Scotland's history, loved the food we got to try (like the sausage rolls at Loch Lubnaig and the Edradour Whisky-flavoured ice cream in Pitlochry), and of course, as Harry Potter fans, seeing some of those filming locations in person was a big dream-come-true for us as well, especially considering how beautiful they are in real life. But the highlight of the tour was definitely our driver and tour leader Johnny - we LOVED his storytelling, his seemingly infinite knowledge about the places we were visiting, his positive energy and kindness, and his choice of music while driving in the van. Overall, I'd say it was a PERFECT trip, and wouldn't really change a single thing about it! <3
