5.00We booked this tour with E2G last year after much discussion with Martin. He was very helpful customising our itinerary to exactly what we wanted to see and our interests. He was always propt to reply to our many questions and extremely patient to deal with our dozens of emails! (Sorry, Martin). Our guide for the tour was Joao, and wr couldn't have been happier. He wore a kilt, was always pleasant and very patient. Willing to do last minute changes and further customise our itinerary and even gace us some amazing lunch recommendations! We couldn't recommend E2G enough. Martin and Joao helped us to customise a unique experience and we're eternally grateful. Thanks guys!
Family fun with Martin and the crew at E2G

5.00After years of leading international trips for college and university students I was hoping to relax, enjoy a trip and give the lead over to someone else and E2G was the right choice. This was a family trip and Martin worked hand-in-hand with my children. Planning a perfect five day tour of the western side of Scotland. By the end of the trip, it seemed like Martin was more like one of our family than a tour guide. Knowledgeable and funny and ready to roll with our request, made it a pleasant and enjoyable five days. Thanks for everything Martin, Professor Kent
A lovely tour with a great guide Martin. He took us to all our destinations and dropped us off and picked us up.

5.00Our tour with this company was nothing short of amazing! We started with St Andrews/Stirling for two days with Joao and the next three days to the Isle of Skye with Martin. Everything was exceptional! Both guides were professional, knowledgeable, accommodating but most importantly so FUN! We have such a great time. They were so incredibly flexible and able to fill our days with great tours, locations and fun stops. We would HIGHLY recommend this company!
Amazing tour of the Hebrides! Skillfully and kindly guided by Martin! The BEST!

5.00There aren't enough words to express our gratitude for Martin and his skillfully guided tour. This was our second time using his tour services and if we find ourselves back in Scotland, he will be the first person we reach back out to. He is warm, kind, funny, and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond so that my family could have the best memories ever! His vehicle was comfortable and fit our large family of 6 perfectly! Planning the trip was a breeze and I truly appreciated his expertise and recommendations. He didn't just facilitate a tour...he added to the enjoyment of our trip!
A crackin' good time!

5.00Had a lovely Scottish Highlands 5 day tour with George Riley, excellent back road driver and history buff! George navigated the daily rain downpours with ease while showcasing beautiful landscape views, stunning castles, excellent coffee & cake stops and loads of cultural anecdotes. Delightful country to return again!! Highly recommend to all👏🍾‼️
Breathtaking views with a fantastic guide

5.00Our family spent 5 days touring Scotland with our tour guide Simon and had an amazing time. Simon was knowledgeable and a great conversationalist. He planned a once in a lifetime trip for us. We saw many amazing sights. He was flexible and willing to change plans when needed. He incorporated our needs and interests seamlessly. Spending 5 days with someone you don't know can be a little daunting, but Simon was great. He was always on time, and so friendly and considerate. He took the time to engage with each of my kids throughout the trip. We had such a fun time with him, and felt very safe with him at the wheel. Honestly, by the end of the trip he felt like a family friend! We will be talking about this trip and the breathtaking sights we saw for years to come.
