BEST TOUR

Can’t say enough good things about this tour or our tour guide, Connor! My friend and I loved how intimate the tour was and how personable the guide was - we felt like we got the most well rounded experience and saw a very unique perspective of the Highlands. Connor was informative and very witty, which made the 12 hour tour so enjoyable. I’ve done lots of tours and this is the best I’ve ever done. I’d recommend to anyone and everyone going to Scotland!

Andy was a first-rate guide for our day long drive from Inverness to Isle of Skye. Our small group was able to learn from Andy's personal expertise on the history, the food and the economic of the Scotland. The weather went from sunshine to steady rain, which lended for outstanding photo opts of numerous waterfalls rolling from the mountians and a rainbow over the bay. We were glad to sit back, take in the scenery and let Andy do the driving for the day. I will recommend this company to others looking for adventure and to see the true Scotland. Thanks Andy!
Fabulous

Wonderful trip - wonderful guide

Subsequent to this tour, I took a day trip with another company. The tour guide wasn't even Scottish, which made me appreciate Connor and the trip to the isle of Skye even more. Connor did an excellent job of both explaining things and driving. Only a Scotsman would have the insight that he has. I would take this tour again and enjoyed it thoroughly. thank you Connor!!!
great tour !

We had fabulous weather and saw Loch Ness, Eilean Donan Castle and the beautiful Isle of Skye at their very finest. We are so grateful to our driver/guide Duffy for sharing his great knowledge, humour and anecdotes with us. We are four seniors and much appreciate his thoughtfulness and consideration during the trip. His employers are so lucky to have him. Highly recommend this tour. Thanks too Duffy. Donna.
What an awesome day tour!

We went on this tour with Connor. Our group was small -- only 5 -- so Connor was able to make a few changes to the order of the itinerary so that we could stop a couple more places than usual.
Connor was both informative and funny, and talked with each of us. He was great at timing each stop -- not too long, not too short. Eilean Donan Castle was SO beautiful in the morning -- with reflections on the still water. And Skye is very worth the visit. We were able to spend time in Portree on our own at lunch, and then had stops at beautiful locations around the island.
I highly recommend this tour. It's a long day, but worth every minute!
Awesome

My buddies and I went for a full day experience, Fraser Duffy was our guide. He was a knowledgeable personable guide and fun! I would highly recommend.

We had a great day with our guide Andy, who really knew his stuff and made us feel comfortable. The day tour is long but worth it, you see a lot of great sites in one day. This gives you a very nice picture of the highlands

Kanon tur, vi fick se allt vi ville och veta allt om det vi besökte, och även mycket om Skottland, detta berodde på vår fantastiska guide Andy, som var kunnig trevlig och bjöd på sig själv.
Un bonito tour!

A destacar el conductor y guía Connor, muy agradable y atento en todo momento. Al tour sólo le ví una pega y es que el "Old man of Storm" no se ve a la distancia que se vé en la publicidad del tour
(la foto de arriba), se vé muy lejos y ya que no se ajusta a la realidad deberían cambiar esa foto.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
