Wonderful family trip - Our family had a wonderful 3 days travelling to the Isle of Skye, the Old man of Storr and Cairngorm National park with Lawrence and Billy. We appreciated punctual pick ups and timely tea cakes as well as their entertaining stories, historical facts and local lore about Inverness and the surrounding area.
Whether you’re interested in a slower, more relaxed pace, or to see and do as much as you can in the time that you have, you have found the right team! Bill and Lawrence let you decide the type of tour you want and then they make it happen. Our family would 100% recommend this kind and thoughtful team of tour guides.

2 days exploring Scotland - My family had two days with Billy for our day trip to Skye from Inverness followed by our transfer tour from Inverness to Edinburgh and we couldn’t recommend this company and Billy more! He was wonderful right from the prompt pick ups from our accommodation just outside of Inverness both mornings, stopping at all the attractions, providing loads of Scottish history, tips and tricks, and his driving that made us feel very safe on some of those interesting Scotland roads! We never felt rushed during either day and when the weather was not in our favour, Billy as able to accommodate a date change last minute, which was so appreciated. Overall, the experience was a delight and made for very seamless travel so we could enjoy all that Scotland has to offer. Thank you, Billy!

Day tour - Inverness to Skye - My family had a wonderful tour of Skye with Billy. He picked us up from our place in Inverness and was very accommodating to whatever and wherever we wanted to stop. He made sure to hit the crowd pleasers, especially since it was our first time visiting, but also was happy to customize with other stops as well. The weather was not fully cooperative, but we all made the best of it! Overall, an excellent tour of Skye and would highly recommend.

He was an excellent driver, which was important on some of the one way roads in remote areas. We enjoyed the tour very much.

Unforgettable Day Making Memories - Amazing Host - What a perfect tour even with the inclement weather! Billy was so friendly and warm - he was so knowledgeable and great with my three young boys. Billy made the tour all about what we wanted to do and see and he provided the guidance and expertise to make this such a memorable day. We had amazing photos and made life long memories. Billy was so flexible and knew exactly what we often needed as a young family - good restaurant recommendations and the best bathrooms! I highly recommend Billy and his tour company!

Isle of Skye - An absolutely amazing tour! I would highly recommend for anyone wanting a full day tour to the Isle of Skye. Our guide, Billy, was so knowledgeable, fun, and accommodating for any of our needs. The company was also very responsive prior to the trip to custom make the tour just right for the family! It is a long day, but so well worth it!!!!

Highlander Private Tout - Lawrence is a local resident of Scotland. His is very knowledgeable of the history of the local sites on the Highlander Ptivate Tourr. His storing telling kept us wanting to learn more about the areas. His van was clean and well maintained, and he was an excellent driver on the long, narrow roads. Borh, my husband, and I highly recommend Lawrence to travelers to participate in a tour with him.
