We really enjoyed the small size of our group and all the amazing places Moray took us. There is so much to see and do and he did a great job at getting us to as many as possible. It was nice that our accommodations were arranged beforehand making it simple. This was a fun tour!

This tour was a great way to get a feel for the country in just a few days. Our guide was Iain M. He did a great job explaining and giving the background and history of the all the stops and where to find unique things. He got off the bus and took us to places and showed rather than just telling like some tour guides we’ve had. Some of our favorite stops were Glenncoe hike, isle of skye village shops, Mackenzie bakery, putting your face in the water at river sligachan, and how to get good photos of the hills and bridges. Definitely recommend!

Alex was a great tour guide and great driver to get us back safely with all those crooked roads in the middle of a storm. Unfortunately, we did not get to do the Isle of Syke portion as a major storm dropped trees all over the roads and blocked access to the island. The rest of the tour was as good as it could be considering the weather we had to deal with. I especially loved the little BnB we stayed in at Inverness for 2 nights. I definitely recommend you request it specifically. Its the Corunna BnB.
