This tour is a fantastic way of seeing the highlights of the Scottish Highlands. Our guide Paul had amazing knowledge of the area and ensured we were well taken care of throughout the two days of the trip. I learned lots about Scotland's history, had several opportunities for amazing photos, and visited various towns and attractions. It never felt like we were on the minibus for too long, and Paul was great at sharing the itinerary and talking us through what we could find at each location. Personal highlights were visiting Loch Ness, listening to Scottish folk music while travelling through fantastic landscapes, and seeing the Glenfinnan Viaduct. Would definitely recommend!Show more

We took the highlands tour in the month of may last year. It was really wonderful . Our guide was Billy. I found him a bit rude and racist . Twice he shushed my family member when she was talking to me on the bus. And at the end of the trip when my father went to say good bye to him and thank him for the wonderful tour, he did not acknowledged him and straight away ignored him. That left a bitter after taste in the mouth after such a wonder trip. Show more
