This day trip was better than we were expecting, and we were expecting a lot. The itinerary Craig put together was perfect, the distilleries were fantastic and the timing excellent. We had enough time at each place we visited, no rushing. Absolutely would book with Craig again.
An incredible experience Craig was the man!!!!

Craig was an exceptional tour guide, and our trip around Inverness and the surrounding areas was unforgettable thanks to him. His depth of knowledge about Scotland’s history, culture, and hidden gems was truly remarkable. Every story he shared brought the past to life, making the journey both educational and deeply engaging. What stood out most was Craig’s enthusiasm and energy. Despite it being a 9-hour tour, his passion never waned, and he even went above and beyond by spending extra time ensuring we saw everything we hoped for. His genuine love for Scotland and his desire to share it with others was heartwarming and inspiring. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Craig made this experience not just a tour, but a cherished memory. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience! Thank you, Craig :)

Craig was most helpful and extremely responsive to our messages. He managed to arrange visits to Benromach, Glenallachie and Glenlivet distilleries. It was a memorable experience finding out about how whisky is produced and what makes single malt in the Scottish Highlands so delicious. We had whisky tasting and a great time at the gift shops too. Craig was most amazing, fetching us around and was most jovial and friendly. It felt as if we were travelling with a friend. Definitely coming back to visit other distilleries with Craig! Thank you so much!
Highlight of the entire trip!

Craig went above and beyond as a guide and we had a fantastic day! We got to experience everything we wanted from a local expert, and when he made suggestions about possible changes to our tour, he was always spot on! We felt incredibly safe with a knowledgeable guide. He was responsive in the planning/booking stage and very accommodating for our larger group. We would 100% book another tour with Craig!
Amazing tour

Or guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was a great guy that showed us a good time and knew the back roads that the Distilleries were on very well so we could hit as many as possible. Highly recommended!

The Highland Excursions with Craig were the highlight of our trip! If you want top-notch service with that personal touch, this is your option! Highland-Excursions allowed us to create a custom trip which worked out great for our group of five. We would book again with Highland Excursions!
