Very well planned and intriguing trip! - We had a very well planned and executed trip. Everything was very smooth going, we managed to cover a lot of picturesque spots in the West Highlands which are definitely worth a visit. Our guide Scott was very funny, engaged a lot with everyone and covered each place with loads of information, interesting facts and views of a local. Definitely worth it!

The Perfect Trip - This was an absolutely amazing experience and arguably the best thing I did during my visit in Scotland. Cheers to our incredibly entertaining and engaging tour guide Scott, who was very knowledgeable on the history behind the mountains and lochs and the little towns we visited. Pick up was simple, and the length of the whole trip was perfect, you get to see a bit of everything. This is great for first-timers at Scotland, and great for people who want the views without the crazy hikes. 10/10 no complaints!

Highlands in a nutshell - highly enjoyable! - It was a wonderful trip! Our guide Nicky was so lovely and knowledgeable. She shared many Scottish stories and tips. Our 7 year old enjoyed it so much as well looking for loch monsters. The tour design was great. We could taste the essential Highlands experience with several stops (Inveraray, Oben, Glencoe and several photo stops) along the way. We definitely will not hesitate to book another tour next time we come to Scotland!

A wonderful day out, 10/10 - I went on this tour with my two aunts and it was incredible, the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and having lived in this country for my whole life I had not realised how beautiful and just genuinely breathtaking it's landscapes truly were. All three of us had perhaps one of the best days out we've had in a long time, if you have the time/money, theres no better way to spend it.

Fabulous day ❤️ - Absolutely loved my day trip with Highland Explorer. The journey was really comfortable on a modern coach with usb chargers at every seat - essential if you like me take lots of pictures. The bus was immaculate too. The scenery was spectacular, and this was enhanced by the guide who has excellent local knowledge and told us heaps about Scottish history. A really fun day. Thanks to our guide and thanks to Highlander Explorer. Highly recommend.

Simply perfect - It was an unforgettable experience, the Swiss landscapes will always remain in my heart. Our guide, Scott, talked to us throughout the entire journey about the history of Scotland and the Scottish Highlands, and I really appreciated his sense of humor because he made the trip so enjoyable.
I recommend everyone book an excursion like this because the money spent is absolutely worth it!
