5.00Talk about AMAZING! We went on a tour with E2G tours with their guide Martin and could not have been more pleased. We visited Isle Skye and were on a tight schedule, Martin nailed every highlight, scheduled it perfectly, and was the very best of company. Been to Scotland a lot and this was by far the best experience I have had yet. I would highly, highly recommend booking with E2G for any tour of Scotland you may be planning.
Beautiful landscapes, unforgettable walk

5.00Fantastic walk. Two long days but full of beautiful things. John was our guide, extremely friendly and helpful. Very intelligent and knowledgeable. Passionate about history, he told us many stories about the places we passed and visited. We strongly recommend. Five stars.
Great tour for all seasons!

5.00The tour was really a surprise! Not only for the fantastic, special and suggestive places especially in the winter season, but also for the welcoming and reassuring company of Brian and Wanda. Brian is a great fan of his country, which my parents and I found admirable, and connoisseur of every glimpse, a very safety-conscious guide and commendable patience. Wanda, a force of nature, attentive and equally caring towards my parents and our needs. Not only for the translation, but also for those information or insights not found in the books of tourist guides, of a person who has embraced from the heart a country and a culture no longer new to her but certainly different given our common Italian origins. I highly recommend these professionals, coming from a person a little 'so demanding :)
