Great private day trip from the cruise port - Our tour guide Bob M, was wonderful! He had a great sense of humor and was a perfect fit for us. Bob was knowledgeable, funny and easy going. We visited Culloden Battlefield, Clava Cairns, Loch Ness, city center and saw the Heiland Coos, (Bob even brought carrots so the cows we come close for a snack!). It was a great day. Thanks so much!!

Perfect Day in the Highlands - Colin was a knowledgeable guide who customized our excursion to meet the needs of an older couple with back problems. However, we did not miss a thing! The harder sites to visit we saw and the others we visited. Thank you, Colin for helping me research my family at Culloden and for introducing us to single malt whiskey at a distillery. Who knew we would like it enough to buy 3 bottles. We look forward to returning to see more of the Highlands with you.

Great tour for our multi generational family. - Fabulous tour with Craig. He picked us up at the port when our ship docked at 8 am. He tailored the tour to us and we loved it. Our group was everything from children to someone with mobility issues. Craig was amazing with everyone. I highly recommend him!!!

You must book this trip! - Best tour ever! Craig was the best and most informative tour professional! He took us on an amazing Outlander journey and showed us the beautiful countryside and we even searched for Nessie! We also stopped at the Singleton Distillery for a wee dram of whiskey! Definitely book this trip with Craig if you are wanting genuine Scottish Highland adventure!

Our Day with Craig - Wonderful trip! Craig was an excellent guide and storyteller. He had a number of interesting facts and tales associated with each stop. Tailored his points of interest to our interests. Our only suggest with the road noise a small mic system for use in the car would have made sure we captured every comment.
