What To Expect
Millionaires Viewpoint (as it's known to the locals) is one of the most beautiful views in the Highlands. We often stop here and enjoy a breakfast whisky paired with chocolate.
Falls of Shin
Atlantic Salmon can often be seen leaping the falls but even if the salmon aren't leaping this is an absolutely beautiful stop to take in the air and appreciate the rugged natural beauty of the Scottish Highlands.

5.00We had a great time with Peter for our tour of the castle and gardens, finding some hairy coos, yummy whisky tasting, as well as a hike up to the Fyrish monument. Car was lovely and he was very good with our 12 and 14 year old kids.

5.00We had a wonderful day visiting the Highlands with Gavin. We learned so many tidbits as we stopped at the various sites and tasted wonderful whiskys throughout the day. We will recommend him to everyone we know traveling to the Highlands.
Best, best, best guide!

5.00Gavin is such a warm and comfortable companion that anything he suggests as tour destinations will be more than wonderful for your time in the Highlands. Our first/other tour with him was six years ago, and when we met again today it was as if we were old friends re-uniting. If you have a "bucket list" of sites to visit in Scotland, Gavin can help you tick those boxes. If you just want to enjoy your time in the area you're visiting, let him help you choose what to see. You'll make a host of great memories and, once home, you'll be recalling fondly the time you spent in his company. I'd give him ten stars if that were an option on TripAdvisor!
Big Gav & His X5 for the Win!!!

5.00From the first inquiry, to the planning, to day-of, Gavin was top-notch to work with and his tour was a highlight of our highlands adventure! Do yourself a favor, ensure you are getting Gavin and his M series X5 diesel if you can - Gavin is GREAT and to cruise the highlands in a luxury SUV is a special treat! We are a family of 4 (kids 2.5 & 6 years) - Gavin picked us & our luggage up at the Glenmorangie Distillery, as we had stayed at the Glenmorangie House the night prior. Gavin had our luggage loaded by the time we got done with our distillery tour and we set off for Dunrobin Castle. His X5 M series diesel is a great luxury SUV to cruise the highlands in and the fact that he has screens and queued up movies for the kids is an added bonus! He gave fantastic history of the area on the way to the castle and we even stopped to watch some seals playing! Once we got to Dunrobin Castle, Gavin gave us the lay of the land and then let us loose while he waited just outside. We were able to tour at our leisure and he was ready to roll when we were. From Dunrobin we headed to Balblair Distillery for a quick tasting, which was quite fun. After the distillery we took a hike to Black Rock Gorge, a beautiful gorge which has appeared in Harry Potter movies. Afterwards, we drank whisky from the quaich and tasted some local chocolates. Finally, he got us to Inverness for check-in at our B&B. I cannot say enough positive things about Gavin - he is a professional, passionate about his homeland and will go out of his way to ensure you have a world-class experience!
