Wonderful journey in Inverness with Drew
Laurence_V
, May 2022
What a wonderful time we had with Drew! Highly recommend this guided tour. Drew is a welcoming kindhearthed person with such a way of describing his home. The way the tour is built and the knowledge that Drew brings to it, makes it a memorable journey to Scotland. Side note, it is really great choice for couples because of the limited 8 seater bus which gives it a sense of "private tour"

Linda_R

We highly recommend Robbi. Between beautiful venues his witty jokes and impromptu spouting of quotes and poetry kept us in stitches. But when it came to Culloden he sombered and stressed the importance of this sacred place. We will never forget this fantastic day!

Good tour for people interested in history
Julia_F
, May 2022
Very informative tour. Our tour guide gave us plenty of historical details, and we visited all the major spots. A couple of watch-outs: * This tour isn't ideal for non-English speakers, even if a translator is on board. There was a lot of information to be shared and no time for translation. * This is not a "chill" tour. There is a lot to see and time is tight, so we couldn't enjoy the views and stops as widely as we wanted.

Thank you Julia for the kind review. It's great you appreciated the information given but we are sorry if some of the details were lost in translation for you. The guides try to ensure every nationality is catered for. We feel this is an unhurried tour compared to many and strive to give a full tour at an acceptable pace to all. Haste ye back.

Dena_E

The views of the Highlands were spectacular! Our driver, Drew, was very informative and helpful. Visiting Culloden Battlefield was an honor and grateful for the opportunity to remember those who fought so gallantly for Scotland. Clava Cairns was fascinating. Although interesting, would rather have forgone some of the short stops along the way and spent more time at Culloden Battlefield.

Had a great time on this tour - lovely travel companions and an excellent tour guide, Stuart. As a local, Stuart was able to show us many sights of interest off the beaten track. Not only very professional, but offered his knowledge of local history and customs. Visited Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle; Singleton Glen Ord Distillery, Robertsons Farm Larder, the old Priory in Beauly, Culloden and Clava Cairns. Beauly is a beautiful village - and was a great place for a lunch stop. A full day - but well worthwhile. Thank you, Stuart, and Happy Tours !
