My mum is over 50, but she's in good health and active. I noticed the tour mentions an age range of up to 45, so I just wanted to check whether she'd still be able to join the tour.

I noticed that the Jacobite Steam Train is listed under "What's Not Included" with the note "reserve at the time of booking." However, I couldn't find an option to add this during checkout. Is it still possible to reserve the train, and if so, how would we do this? Also, on which day of the tour does the Jacobite Steam Train take place?

I'm reaching out because I have 2 friends that are traveling to Scotland and is interested on this tour. However, they've been getting their own rooms separately. I see that the Dorm room is shared but it says enjoy the privacy of your own room. Just a little confused.

We have no single rooms available for this tour. We have some options for 2 adults in a twin room dorm or multi sharing dorms.

Do you have any age restrictions on this tour? We have 2 in the group in their 50s.

We do not have an upper limit for this tour. This tour is staying in Hostel Accommodation. We do also offer B&B accommodation through our sister company

Are there other options for lodging on the Isle/Loch Ness 3 day tour? If not, are their options for a private bathroom.

We don't have the option to change on this tour I'm afraid however we have a 3-day tour operated by our sister company Highland Explorer tours who have private rooms with an en-suite.

Can I book extra nights at the accommodation after the tour?

It is not possible to book accommodation before or after the tour through the operator.

What is the minimum age for travelers on this tour?

Travelers need to check with the operator regarding age restrictions as accommodations have specific rules regarding age.

What happens if I miss the tour departure?

You'll need to make your own arrangements back to Edinburgh if you miss the tour, as it will not turn back for you.

What forms of payment are accepted for the tour?

You can use various forms of payment, but check with the operator for specifics regarding card types.

Is it possible to get this discount applied to our booking? I would like to avoid the complication of cancelling our booking and reordering it to get this 20%.

No, I am afraid not, we don't have a deal on for that tour at present.

How many travelers are allowed in the group?

Group sizes can vary, but spots are limited, so booking sooner is recommended to ensure a place.

It was incredible experiencing the amazing land, History, and people! Teigan is so fun and knowledgeable with her story telling y& games she plays with us. She did a great job! I recommend taking off Touradar that meals are included, because they are not. It also would need nice to have that one last night of accommodation too!Show more

It’s been two years since I took my tour of Scotland with Caitlin, but it was absolutely one of my top trips (if not THE top) during my five-month study abroad in Europe. I still listen to the song “Caledonia” that she played in the bus as we traveled through the Highlands. It reminds me of her patience, knowledge and enthusiasm for her country and reminds me of the absolute wonder I felt while I was there. Caitlin’s love of Scotland is infectious. She handled a larger Easter group with ease, and was always there to tell us stories, answer questions, and map out our entire itinerary after our trip. My friend Sam and I went on this tour together and met amazing friends from all over the world. I love seeing what they and Caitlin are up to today on social media. I’ve been itching to go back for the past two years now. I would highly recommend Haggis Tours and Caitlin as your guide—you’ll have the adventure of a lifetime. Thank you, Caitlin!Show more
