Fun, informative and entertaining tour. Highly recommend. - A great tour with Dusty. Very informative, fun and entertaining. A great story teller. Enjoyed the music and highly recommend this tour. Plenty of time at each stop. Well organised and friendly staff. We took our own packed lunch from Greggs in Edinburgh which saved some money too.

Great tour, great guide, informative - Torva was a fantastic tour guide. He has a storytelling gift and was very informative and funny. The tour was about 8 hours and covered 3 sites. I liked that it was small and not rushed. Would definitely use this company again.

Beautiful weather day - Sophie and her team were a lot of fun. We all learned a lot about William Wallace, Rob Roy and how Braveheart was all wrong! Thoroughly enjoyed the music! Lots of time at Stirling Castle which is why I chose this tour. Saw lots of sheep on the way to our destinations. Sophie, paddle boarding, not water boarding! Ha ha!

Great day - Dusty was an excellent driver and brilliant guide. He mixed the perfect amount of clear information with some humour. And he had a great playlist too. Each of the stops was special in it own way, especially Stirling Castle (where I recommend you take one of the excellent free tours).

Tour highland Loch Lomond - Guide turned out to be incompetent and unprofessional. We had Audio Guide with headphones not working. They had no other headphones available on the transfer. We asked to speak English and not tight Scottish and “it was not possible” Music during transfers very loud.
