A great day full of sights and information! - Wow, we learned SO MUCH about Scotland on this tour! Our guide, Lewis, was VERY knowledgeable! He was flexible with plans and was very kind and patient with my older parents. This was a phenomenal way to learn about the history of the Highlands!

Had a wonderful time in Inverness. - Had a fabulous time with Chris, who took us all over the Inverness area. There wasn't a question he didn't have the answer to. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone coming to this part of the world. Absolutely perfect day!! Thanks, Chris!

Amazing company and Amazing Day! - We had an amazing day with our guide Cait! We changed our travel plans and had an open day in Inverness. I reached out to Mike (owner) directly to see if he had anyone to accommodate a tour last minute. He worked his magic in the high season and secured us a driver for the day. We learned so much history and insightful details. Cawdor castle. Culloden battle field. Loch Ness and Beauly. We even found a coo or 2. Was a wonderful day with an amazing company. Highly Recommend!!

Don’t miss this one! - Jim is a fabulous guide. We stopped at 11 locations in our 8 hour tour and had an excellent experience at each location. Jim was a pro when it came time for taking all of the photos that we wanted to get. It was a great Scottish experience and I highly recommend it.

Well worth the cost! Provided personal service - Thank you for an amazing day! Stuart was a gracious host. Knowledgeable and flexible. Allowed us the time to explore and customize as the day went on. The love of the area and deep interest in history allowed us to get more out of the day than we expected. My only recommendation would be that if you have the ability to start at 8:30 vs 9, do that. That way you arrive at the castle right when it opens to avoid the crowds.
