Great tour. Don’t miss it. - We came to Invergordon on a cruise ship and did the south tour with Avril’s Travels. Lorraine was our guide and she was a lot of fun and very funny. She was a great guide and we enjoyed our tour very much. Highly recommend.

I would change the name to Avril’s Amazing Travels - Everyone wants their time to be spent in the nicest way possible. To see, to experience and to learn all the magic that Scotland holds. Avril will be that person you remember, she’ll be what promotes a smile and a warm feeling of appreciation.. And you’ll laugh. Smart, informative, caring. It’s was Father’s Day weekend and she gave her time in presenting my husband with a basket of goodies she personally selected for our daughter in the states. Her price was incredibly reasonable and every review will state the same. Enjoy your time, God bless, you are in for a treat!

Great tour with a great guide. - Lorraine was an excellent tour guide. Full of local knowledge and fun stories and a generally lovely person. She was happy to adapt our tour as we went along to satisfy all of our group. The weather was kind to us which always helps and we all had a great time. Early entry to Cawdor castle was a bonus.

A Great Day Trip and Tour! - Great tour and experience! Our tour guide Gary was funny and engaging, and regaled us with lots of interesting information and stories. He gave us ample time to see and enjoy each of the stops, and even a taste of whiskey during our stop at Loch Ness. Speaking of which, Loch Ness - although a beautiful lake - was not very interesting outside of the monster legend. We're glad we didn't spend very much time there, and instead spent more time at places such as the Culloden Battlefield, Clava Cairns, and Cawdor Castle (where we could have even spent more time exploring the gardens and grounds). Very enjoyable day tour, thank you!

Great port of call tour guide - The tour was excellent. Avril has a large knowledge of the area and shared many interesting pieces of history both past and present. She was an absolute joy to spend the day with. She answered all my questions quickly prior to the trip. Although I did not get the tour I really wanted due to being sold out(my fault for booking too late) She watched for any cancelations up to the day of the tour to switch me if space opened up. She also directed me the best hot chocolate I have ever had. I would tour with her again and again. She was very easy to find in the port when disembarking the ship - she was right where she said she would be.

You will love Avril Tours! - We went with Lorraine on a Go South excursion. She was knowledgeable, pleasant, and did everything to get us in sights before the big buses came. You will be very pleased if you select this tour.

Fun times - We were on the Viking Saturn and Avril gave us great directions on how to connect. Everything was very smooth. Lorraine was a bundle of energy and information. We saw the castle, the stones, the battlefield, the loch and the lovely cows. It was a highlight of our cruise.
