Such a great day - We had a wonderful day and trip with Johnny through the Highlands. We saw lots of beautiful places, he told us many things about the area, we went to Dunrobin Castle, Shin Falls and Dornoch. We had such an awesome time with him. Communication before and during the tour was also very easy. Johnny always gave us an estimation on how much time we need and was very kind and patient with us. Would book a tour with him anytime again and would also highly recommend him.

Deluxe Dunrobin - A very scenic drive to Dunrobin Castle from Inverness and back. Several stops both planned and spontaneous for photo ops. Johnny was an accommodating and flexible guide.

Awesome experience with Johnny! - We had a fantastic time with Johnny. He made us feel so warm and welcome. Johnny was very knowledgeable of the area and very patient as made requests to adjust our schedule. We enjoyed his trip so much that we requested an extension of our tour. He accommodated the request with a smile!

Scenic drive with a castle and falconry to top it iff! - We really enjoyed this excursion. We loved driving the country roads, seeing the scenery and glimpses of wildlife. We enjoyed the falconry display, and the castle generally. We learned a little more about the English aristocracy dominating, exploiting and forcibly removing the Scots. we were born English, but certainly not into the aristocracy. They were horribly exploiting the ordinary English folks, too. The ones who remain continue to own most of the land. They are lucky never to have been wiped out in a revolution or a series of asymmetrical uprisings. Johnny of Premium Highland Travel is a great guide and driver. We highly recommend him.

Brilliant day at Dunrobin Castle and Dornoch - Wonderful trip to Dunrobin Castle and surrounding areas. Johnny tailored the trip to make the most of the weather, jumped out to take photos, and went out of his way to make the trip comfortable. The castle exceeded expectations and the falconry display was brilliant! The sight of seals basking on the shores of Dornoch firth was an unexpected bonus.

A great tour! - Had a great trip to Dunrobin castle with Johnny. He made sure we got there in plenty of time to see the falconry show and we had enough time afterwards to look around and take photos. We also visited Dornoch cathedral, saw the seals in the Loch Fleet nature reserve and admired the famous million dollar viewpoint in Tain. So many beautiful sights!

Interesting and informative - We enjoyed this trip led by Johnny who was keen to show us the area around his Highland home and to share his local knowledge with us. He was very interesting and obliging, willing to craft the tour around our wishes. We enjoyed the castle but could have done with a little bit more time there. Altogether a good day out.
