Lovely day at Scottish highlands - Nicky was a wonderful guide. She was full of insightful stories and a ton of pointers to help us understand the history. It was a long tour but Nicky kept it interesting thru the day. I had a 10 year old and 15 year old and both enjoyed the tour. It was a casual day in the highlands and we absolutely loved it.

Scott … excellent guide - This was my very first visit to the Highlands, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience it. From start to finish, everything was so well organised, which made the whole day run smoothly and stress-free. Scott was an outstanding guide — incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and also very easy to talk to. He had a great way of sharing information, mixing in history, local stories, and insights in a way that made everything come to life. As it was late in the season, I felt especially lucky to be part of such a small group. This made the experience even more personal, as there was plenty of time to ask questions and have proper conversations with Scott rather than just listening to a script. It really felt like a tailored experience rather than a standard tour. We were even fortunate with the weather — the rain held off until we were back in Glasgow, which made exploring all the more enjoyable. I don’t think anyone else could have made it better — Scott’s passion for the Highlands and his genuine enthusiasm for sharing it with others really shone through. I came away feeling that I had learned so much, but also with a real appreciation for the beauty and history of the area. One thing I regret is not thinking ahead and bringing cash, as Scott is absolutely worth the extra. I’ll definitely be recommending him to family and friends who are planning a visit soon — I know they’ll be in excellent hands. Thank you, Gill
