Amazing tour, Neil made it magical and made the complex simple for us. - Could not recommend this more highly. If you want to experience the Scottish highlands, there simply is not a better way. The sights were fantastic and the logistics for an otherwise tricky journey were handled flawlessly. All this was made possible by Neil, whose infectious love for his work, deep knowledge, entertaining showmanship, and ability to respond to whatever the moment presented made for a great time for our family. I hope this tour and Neil specifically are available the next time we come back to Scotland!

Epic Journey through the Highlands - What an incredible experience! Our journey to the Highlands was truly unforgettable, and a huge part of that was our amazing tour guide, Neil. While the sights themselves were breathtaking—from the rolling green hills to the serene lochs—it was Neil who made the trip truly special. Neil wasn't just a guide; he was a master storyteller and a true gentleman. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating historical facts and local legends that brought each location to life. He also had a fantastic sense of humor, making the long drives fly by with his witty jokes and amusing anecdotes. His experience was evident in every aspect of the tour, from navigating the winding roads with ease to knowing the perfect spots for photos. Beyond his expertise, Neil was simply a pleasure to be around. He was kind, patient, and went out of his way to make sure everyone was having a great time. We couldn't have asked for a better guide. If you're planning a trip to the Scottish Highlands, I can't recommend a tour with Neil highly enough. You'll leave with incredible memories, stunning photos, and a deep appreciation for the beauty and history of Scotland.

Our tour guide Scott - I would highly recommend Timberbush Tours to anyone looking to explore Scotland. Our tour guide Scott went absolutely above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. This included his own playlist specifically created for the long drives, fun tidbits about history in chronological order as we visited sites, and squeezing in side detours to make sure we all got the most out of our trip. I have never experience such a level of professionalism with the ability to get to know each and every person on the tour, he genuinely seemed to care about our individual experiences. I give Timberbush Tours a 5/5 and Scott a 10/5!!

Recommended 100 POR 100 - Touring the DE Scotland Highlands with Ruth was quite the experience. I can imagine it with NO other guide ☺️know even the smallest DEtail of history, the most hidden ES hideaway, the best place to eat and the accommodation ES ideal, being a small group the treatment ES much more personalized and the truth is that it was quite an experience I recommend it to 100 × 100

Best guide and tour company!!! - We did a 3-day private tour with Jamie N. and we had the best possible experience! There were 7 of us on a family vacation from the U.S. and it was our first trip to Scotland. He picked us up in Dundee and dropped us off in Edinburgh per our request. The experience was so unique and personalized to our group. Jamie accommodated all of our different adventure levels and surprised us with a few amazing experiences. The Isle of Skye was absolutely beautiful and was the highlight of the tour. Jamie N. was extremely knowledgeable and personable throughout our 3 days together. For those who are worried about the motion sickness, etc.-know that he did a great job of accommodating these needs of our passengers. We also had a great experience with Charline in the reservations department -she was always very quick to respond and so helpful in the booking process. I cannot recommend this tour company enough and would highly recommend asking for Jamie N. on your next tour!!!

Nice trip for Scotland - This was a nice trip for Edinburgh, our tour guide and driver Joe is knowledgeable, a nice driver as well. We have visited a lot of amazing spots in Edinburgh, and the most remarkable spot for me was the Fairy Pool, you could go hiking there, there’re plenty of waterfalls, it’s a place must go. And I love the experience to feed the highland cow as well, it’s super interesting. By the way, though it almost rained for the whole trip, but we fortunately saw the rainbow.

Great bus driver! - The bus seats are small and uncomfortable for anyone over about 6’. Bus driver was incredibly wonderful, informative, and had a great handle on history, myths, and was a great story teller. Can’t say enough great things about Brian.

Aisle of Skye tour from Dundee to Edinburgh - Our tour was amazing, we saw a lot of great things and the commentary was fantastic. Our driver, Jamie N, was very helpful and quickly learned the quirks of the group. He made accommodations for any wants and needs that the group had and made a point to specialize the trip for us to make it memorable. We have no regrets and appreciate all the help from Jamie and the experience as a whole.
