4.00Pretty drive thru countryside. Driver was very versed in history. Didn't love that he used a taxi van to travel in as the windows and headrests made it hard to see out windows. Tour stops wer great.
Awesome!

5.00This was the BEST excursion of our trip. Our tour guide Stuart was the BEST! He was very knowledgeable and kind! The castle was a full functioning castle and awesome to see and so was the battlefield and its history. I highly recommend this tour and guide.
Great Experience!

5.00We had a wonderful experience on this tour from beginning to end! We booked the tour last minute and the communication with Mike was quick and eaay. We were met by our tour guide Gene and the owner Mike which was a nice surprise. Having the owner there showed that Mike cares about his business and that we mattered. Gene was a great guide and very knowledgeable and funny. He cared about our comfort while also providing water and snacks for us. We had a time constraint, and Gene customized the tour to fit our time and also to our specific interests. Can't reccomend them enough! Excellent customer service!!

5.00Stuart was a wonderful tour guide. He showed us the highlights of the area, and was very flexible when it came to our suggestions for itinerary changes since there were just the four of us on the tour. He educated us on the proper way to taste whiskey in a distillery too. Fun day!
Extraordinarily Excellent Tour. MUST HAVE when ship at Invergordon.

5.00It was a surprise when we saw our guide Stewart as well as his boss waiting for us, more surprise when we found out that there were only 4 of us in a very nice van, a private tour. We decided to skip the whiskey stop and added the Urquhart Castle stop, which suited us perfectly. Stewart made us very comfortable and explained all of our questions. Strongly recommended tour.
Beautiful Scotland

5.00We were a group of 8 and had a private tour. When we arrived they had to split us between two guides. Our guides were Louis and Tony. The group could not praise them enough and thought they went above and beyond to make our tour memorable. Great tour, beautiful scenary! You will not regret it. We even fit in a couple of extra stops. Cawdor Castle is fantastic, the gin distillery shows the smallest distiller I have ever seen with free tastings. Clava Cairns is a must for Outlander fans. Great day!
Best tour so far in Scotland

5.00What a wonderful day today we had, Roy are tour guide, guided us through What a wonderful day today we had, Roy are tour guide, guided us through the picturesque countryside of Scotland. From Invergordon to Inverness And around the countryside to see amazing sites, including some of the outlander sites. We had the most perfect weather that while we were at Loch Ness there were Multiple people mostly girls in skimpy bathing suits. Roy said no I’ve never seen that here. That’s how warm it was today. Our tour guide Roy was very knowledgeable and took us to a number of sites off the beaten path which we really appreciated. Highly recommended.
