“It’s was a lovely day with snow when we visited. It’s worthy.

“Regarding the petty reviews left by the Italian and French people, we were on the same bus. Super noisy and had a smug face the whole time we were on board. So don’t consider their review as truthful since, for the price of the trip, they expected to be treated as royalties. Now to the trip itself. We left 10-15 mins later than the designated time, since we waited for the Italians to appear (bare in mind they complained). The trip itself was amazing, we saw a lot of scenery views and enjoyed every moment of Tom, the driver, that had extreme in-depth knowledge of every bit of Scotlands spots.…”

We have visited, either in person or just passing by by bus, all the sites we meant to visit having now an idea of where to come back to have a deeper look. Driving was safe, we enjoyed the landscape. We will definitely be happy to join another tour next time we visit Scotland.”

“The guide was top-notch. Very knowledgeable, but not too much kitsch, which I appreciate. The boat trip to Loch Ness and Urquart Castle site visit were well organized. The longer trip back was beautiful, picturesque, and packed with great historical information. I would have loved enough time to stop in at some of the smaller towns and sites, but I would book again. Thanks! Great value. book again. Thank”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our Loch Ness, Glencoe, and Highlands day trip with Mr. Neil was one of the best guided experiences we’ve ever had. At 12.5 hours, this is an extremely long tour, yet Neil handled it with outstanding professionalism, energy, and care from start to finish. Neil is incredibly knowledgeable, has a fantastic sense of humor, and made the entire day engaging and enjoyable. Long tours truly depend on the guide, and Neil delivered excellent pacing, storytelling, and overall organization. We had great weather for most of the day, but the return journey to Edinburgh brought much tougher conditions. Neil handled the drive calmly and confidently — without exaggeration, one of…”
