Came down with COVID 19 5 days before trip - tour company offers no refund or voucher if cancelled within 7 days of trip. No COVID policy - very disappointing. Perhaps they wanted us to show up sick?

Gillian was a great guide and safe driver, wonderful little spots (yay hairy coos!!) and stories you'd never discover if all you did was search online. Food recommendations are SPOT-ON and you absolutely should ask her where to eat! Lovely choice of music throughout the journey too. Coach was clean, well-kept and modern; every seat came with 2 USB charging ports, very helpful when you have your camera app running constantly. All in all it was a wonderful and very comfortable tour and I wish I could do it all over again!

Great two day tour of the Scottish highlands. Six of us from Dublin celebrating a big birthday. Tour gave a marvellous snapshot of Scotland in a comfortable coach with a very informative and highly amusing guide/driver Marty. We started in Glasgow and finished in Edinburgh which fitted very neatly into our trip to both wonderful cities. Recommend highly.

Over 2 days we saw 10 sites which included: Loch Lommand, Glencoe, Loch Ness, Inverness, Cullodon Battle Field, Ancient Tombs, Scotland History Place and Outlander filming site and much more. The overnight accomendation was fine and good value. The driver and guide was grest and safe. He has over 17 years experience guiding tours.

Took this 2 day tour to travel from Glasgow to Edinburgh. It was well worth the tour. Marty was amazing, even with some of his lame jokes he was thoroughly entertaining and informative. He made stops on the trip of places I would never have known about had we done this trip on our own. We booked the trip with the bed and breakfast option rather than book our own accommodation, the bed and breakfast room was small but very clean. I highly recommend this tour with Marty.

A great first taste of the beautiful Scottish highlands. Jo, our driver/guide for the two-day tour filled us in on wide variety of Scotland-related topics in a perfect balance of visits, anecdotes, scenery and relaxation. I couldn't fault it. Well worth doing the stop-over for the night in Inverness. I started in Glasgow and finished in Edinburgh so had the two city visits tagged on to each end. Great experience.

Die Reiseführerin hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben, uns alle Orte und Facetten des Landes zu zeigen. Außerdem war es sehr angenehm in der kleinen Gruppe zu reisen, da man sich so auf persönlicher Ebene kennenlernen konnte und ausgetauscht hat.

J’ai adoré mon expérience! Je conseille vraiment cette expérience si vous souhaitez visiter les Highlands en quelques jours tout en évitant de conduire! En plus, le guide super sympathique a pris le temps de faire quelques arrêts durant la route, il nous a fait écouter quelques chansons liés à notre position géographique et nous racontait constamment de bonnes histoires sur le pays et les lieux.
