5.00Our family had the chance to join the 3-day guided tour to the Isle of Skye, Loch Ness, and the Glenfinnan Viaduct from Edinburgh at the end of June, and it was a truly enjoyable experience from start to finish. The itinerary is well-structured and allows you to see many iconic sites without ever feeling rushed. It’s an excellent way to make the most of a short stay in Scotland, while enjoying the breathtaking landscapes of the Highlands and the Isle of Skye. We would like to highlight the professionalism and dedication of our guide, Matt, who played a big role in making this trip so memorable. Punctual, thoughtful, and enthusiastic, he shared with us his genuine fondness for Scotland. His historical insights and well-chosen anecdotes added real depth to the journey, and he often took the initiative to suggest a few extra stops, always with the intention of enriching the experience. In addition, his confident driving on narrow and winding roads made us feel safe throughout the trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Scotland’s most beautiful places, stress-free, and with the added value of a knowledgeable and caring guide.
Fantastic tour

5.00Chris was a wonderful tour guide. He gave us options and a good amt of time to enjoy the beautiful sights of Scotland. He was able to calmly navigate through closed roads and unforseen circumstances in a professional manner. I'd like to warn others that Viator gave us the wrong meeting time while everyone else who didn't use Viator got the correct time. Check ahead with the Scotland wild company to double check times!
