First private tour - worth it! Beautiful day with the family touring amazing countryside - First time booking a private tour - we'll never get on a group tour bus again! Warm, cozy and comfortable. George attended to every detail - car temp, waters and treats, great play list! He told interesting and entertaining stories that built on each other along the way. We were able to see more places than a similar group tour itinerary. At some stops, we saw the tour bus pull up for a few minutes to let their guests look out the window (Three Sisters - what?!), while we were able to walk about, enjoy the view, hear the storied history and take beautiful family pictures. Our schedule was relaxed and easy. We were in the mood for an afternoon coffee, so pooped into a Cafe in Oban extending our time there. We spent a few extra minutes feeding the Highland cows carrots - my daughter's favorite part of the trip! Pick up and drop off at our door was great. It was nice to say our goodbyes and head up to our room. No need to sort out how to get across town after a long tour. I highly recommend taking this private tour - for the price difference, I found so much value in the enjoyment of the day that can't be matched on a large group tour. Thank you for curating such an incredible trip!

A day out to the Scottish Highlands. - George took us on a private day trip of the Scottish Highlands. George was one of the best guides in my experience. We enjoyed his relaxed, unhurried and highly knowledgeable guidance. This trip gave us a comprehensive glimpse of the old and modern Scotland, not to mention the breathtaking beauty of the Lochs and mountains. We passed through quint little villages and had breakfast and lunch at award winning restaurants. George was adaptable to our needs and with his efficient driving always made us feel safe on the road. Thank you very much for a wonderful day.

Lovely day tour with Corinne - We had a full day tour and our guide, Corinne, was very kind, informative and accommodating. We saw A LOT of beautiful landmarks and Corinne was VERY sociable and knowledgeable. We asked her MANY questions and she was always happy and willing to share her knowledge and personal experiences. It was wonderful to get a perspective from a person that came to Scotland as a foreigner but had also been living in Scotland for many years. It is obvious that she chose to live in Scotland and is having a blast doing so. We were a bit slower everywhere because of our 1.5 year old daughter, but Corinne was very patient and helped us out a lot! She even shared some local snacks towards the end of the tour! Corinne does have a bit of an accent, however my wife found it easier to understand a slight French accent over a Scottish accent, so that turned out wonderful as well! Overall, we're happy to recommend E2G Travel Tours and Corinne in particular.

Best way to see the Highlands - My husband and I only had a few days in Glasgow and we wanted to the see the Highlands in the best way possible. This tour was it. Simon was our driver for the day and we could not ask for a better driver/guide. Simon's communication is impeccable, he's very knowledgeable, extremely warm and friendly. Simon started the tour by asking if there's anything that we wanted to see besides the set itinerary, I asked to see the Highland cows if possible. Simon was able to find a nearby park within the city and showed us to the wonderful cows (THANKS AGAIN SIMON!). We were able to see so many beautiful sights through out the day. The itinerary was perfect for someone to see parts of the highlands of Scotland within the allotted time. We will definitely be back to northern parts of Scotland. Hopefully we get Simon again!

The best tour of the HIghlands! - This was the best tour we could have hoped for! George was an excellent driver (I normally get car sick and dislike mountain roads), and was courteous and mindful of our comfort. He took us to popular spots, but was also careful to point out local points of interest that were not overcrowded and were much more interesting to us. The "wee break" at the top of Glencoe mountains with a bit of whiskey was super fun, and he kept us all entertained for the 12 hour day. They were also worked with us to pick us up from our Glasgow hotel, as we were having issues arranging transportation to the normal pick up spot. George wanted us to thoroughly enjoy our experience...and he got his wish. If we come back to Scotland in the future, we will definitely book another tour with E2G (directly, not through other tour websites...much cheaper!).

He offered great stories and kept us entertained the entire tour. What an exceptional guide he is. the Hairy Cows was my highlight! Such an affordable and awesome company to work with. If going to Glasgow don't hesitate to use E2G for your tour. You will not be sorry!

Beautiful route with lots of variety. - Excellent communication from thr beginning, great route, comfortable vehicle, considerate driver/guide. Would have been 1 extra star if a bit more historical facts and context as that was a bit light.
