Jim S. made our 2-day tour a delight. He is a great ambassador for Scotland and Rabbie's Tours. I will recommend Rabbie's Tours to anyone who asks about Scotland tours.

This tour is well organised comparing to others i've been. There are some nice stops along the way with reasonable time to see stuff. Sinclair was our guide and is incredibly knowledgable and fun. He explained loads of history in a funny and catchy way which is very important given the big ammount of time spend on the road. If i would change something it would be the 30 min stops in gas stations where there's nothing to see really. There were 2 or 3 stops that could be replaced by shorter stops and add up thta time to othet previous stops where there are actually stuff to see. The Bed and breakfast we staid (pine house) was ok but not amazing. Owner was very kind but It was a bit far from the center (15min walk) and furniture and bed were not that good.

It was my first visit to Scotland and my time is limited. The two-day small group tour of Rabbie's to Loch Ness and Inverness was therefore a perfect way see some parts of the highlands and places outside of Edinburgh. It was raining and windy but these didn't deter the group from enjoying the tour. The group was small so that made interaction with other guests and the guide manageable. Didn't have time though to explore Inverness as we arrived in the city around 6:00pm. Keith our guide was great, conversant and knowledgeable about Scotland's history and current affairs. He is also quick-witted, funny at times, and played a mix of Scottish and contemporary music and these helped during the long drives. The B and B accommodation (Pine Guest House) and hostess (Angela) were also great. Room was comfortable with bathroom, queen bed, cable TV, electric pot, coffee, tea and biscuit, plus the traditional Scottish breakfast was delicious. The place is also across a supermarket, which was great for late shopping.

Sharon (Tour Guide) made each mile along the tour memorable through sharing lots of history on the areas and items seen. It was truly a valuable tour of th Highlands and Lowlands up to Inverness and Edinburgh. Lovely off the path stops to tak in local scenes of history, rivers, waterfalls, and heartwarming people to meet. Thanks Rabbi and Sharon for making My 47th birthday trip a blast. Warmest Wishes from Cody Harris and Despina Metakos.

Definitely recommend if you're looking to get a taste of Scotland. As goes with all tours there's never enough time, but our guide was amazing and funny. Highly recommend Ciaran as your guide. He was full of information and friendly. Since all of us made it back in time from each stop we had some spare time and Ciaran even squeezed in an extra stop along the way. Talk to the locals when you can and don't be afraid to ask questions!

I loved this tour sooooo much. Amazing and fun and beautiful. I loved our guide/driver. This was an amazing value!!! Book this tour!! It was great to be in a small bus and navigate the roads very easily, the guide was able to change the itineraries each day to suit us, which was very nice.

Best way to see the Highlands. Our guide Al, was absolutely wonderful. Friendly and full of knowledge and filled us in on everything along the way. This trip was well organised and everything went beautifully We had plenty of photo stops along the way and seen some amazing places. We chose the hotel option, which was beautiful. It was right on the river with only a five minute walk to the town. I look forward to returning to Scotland one day, and I would definitely book another of these tours to a different area. This tour was well worth the money and would highly recommend to anyone with short time in Scotland wanting to see the Highlands.

I have been on many tours over the years and this was by far one of the best! Mackenzie was an AMAZING tour guide. He was not just knowledgable of the highland way of life, he is a highlander himself. Not only did we do the activities listed, but based on the interests of the group, he took us to some additional stops. Having a small bus with less people was much more enjoyable than a large coach trip and allowed for the flexibility that our trip had. Scotland is known for unpredictable weather but we managed to get some sunshine in as well. I could not have asked for a better trip and will most definitely return for a longer one in the future.
