Beautiful Skye with a real fun tour guide - We absolutely loved this tour. Our tour guide Lorna was amazing. So full of fun stories and so accommodating. We saw the most beautiful things in Scotland. We even felt like she was taking us to things not always seen by other tours!!! Definitely made the trip the best it could be in spite of the weather. She never let the rain stop of from getting the best experience possible. My only complaint was from the booking side. We did not reaper were staying at different B&Bs throughout town of Portree. Our party was separated in accommodations on opposite side of town. Accommodations were pleasant. Walking distance to town. Also, please make reservations for dinner on both nights. Not easy to get in to restaurants after a long day.

Terrific 3 days with a great tour guide and new friends - The whole tour was terrific. The days were full of a variety of sights and the most incredible treat was Paul Santa our tour guide. He regaled us with stories, legends and the entire history of Scotland in such an engaging way. My B and B accommodation was also delightful. I was sorry to end the adventure. I’d highly recommend this Highland, Isle of Skye experience with Timberbush Tours….well worth the price tag

Wonderful tour - Our tour guide is Karis. She’s really good at multi-tasking. A very skilled driver and a fantastic story teller in a soothing voice who is also very humorous as well. I really enjoy the 3-day tour while making a few lovely friends. Definitely will recommend to my friends.

Perfect Addition to our Time in Scotland - We spent 2 full weeks in Scotland and had mapped out our own tours of Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Perth, and Falkirk. With three days left, we decided to book the 3-day tour of Isle of Skye and the Highlands. Allowing somebody else to drive, narrate, and point out the highlights and history of our scenery was AMAZING! Our tour guide, Martin, was great! From pickup to dropoff, we were at ease and comfortable on the bus. He made sure we had opportunities for pictures, snacks, and restrooms. We booked our overnight accommodations through the travel company, and our host home in Portree was just perfect! I would recommend you book reservations for dinner in Portree. During the summer months, every restaurant was fully booked except for Chinese and Indian cuisine. We had delicious Chinese as the result, but definitely try to book ahead of your arrival. The scenery in Portree, in the Quiraing, at Kilt Rock, and at the Old Man of Storr was absolutely stunning! There were times we had to remind ourselves we were in Scotland because the landscapes looked like scenes from Hawaii!! Some of our seemingly impromptu stops seemed to just add to the character of this journey. We have already recommended this tour to several friends that are going to Scotland. This was well worth the money.

Best of the Highlands - We had the best trip with our guide (Paul B). He was timely and got us where we needed to go safely. He was knowledgeable about the history of the area and played great music. We went to all the highlights on the trip, which were beyond beautiful. Our B&B in Portree (Fuaran) was perfect. Highly recommend this trip!

Best of the highland - This tour is well organized and we got to enjoy the amazing Scottish highland. Our guide Scott was really knowledgeable and funny. He told a lot of tales about places we visited. We plan to go back in the future to explore more.

Beautiful scenery! - The Highlands are breathtaking, we loved how many different beautiful sights we got to see!
Our tour guide did take some liberty with the itinerary, so make sure you are vocal if there is something that you really want to see. For example, he took us on a Ferry (not very exciting) instead of the Eilean Donan castle, which was a bummer because I love Outlander and really wanted to see that castle.
