Booked a tour to the highlands and Lochness and although the weather was not ideal we still had a great day. Big Andy was an excellent driver /guide .We were a party of 5 from Malta and we all had a wonderful time He made the tour interesting and fun. We even got to feed some red deers. I would highly recommend.

the overall tour in the highlands was beautiful but we were extremely rushed by our driver, Paul. He was constantly rushing to keep up with schedule, which was caused by late groups of people. You state that the bus leaves promptly on time, our driver waited 20 minutes for a group of people!!! He rushed passed famous buildings or Mary Queen of scots home plus other famous sightseeings, We stopped at a café on the way where the line was long, we finally got our coffees and bacon sandies but had to eat them on the bus because the driver was behind schedule, he drove like a madman causing the coffee to burn our fingers and hand and while trying to eat our sandwich!!! I would not recommend this tour. It was crazy.

The overall tour was good. Disappointed how little time is spent at each stop.. wish there were less stops and more time allowed to wander and discover! Our guide, Adam, was fantastic. Very likable and informative.

George was a very knowledgeable tour guide. Through his knowledge and wit it was easy to stay focused on learning about the history of Scotland. The only thing I wish was different were the stops we made but this is no fault of George. George made sure the safety and comfort of the group was first and foremost important but without sacrificing fun.

Amazing tour, the bus was clean and went on time. The tour guide Jimmy was absolutely great, did not realized 12 hours went by, he told us nice stories and knew a lot about the surroundings and folklore of the land. Highly recommend to get a real feel of Scotland !
