Our tour guide, Jack (Ginger) was AMAZING! He was so knowledgable, patient and amusing - he really made our Highlands tour something special. It was wonderful to get out into nature, see the most beautiful scenery and learn about the history of the Highlands. I am so glad we took the tour - it's not to be missed! And the hairy coos are adorable!!!

Misleading advertising. Described as small group, small van. Was a huge bus. Confusing information on departure location. Different locations.

You should know that there are at least 50 people on the bus and that the roads are very curvy and that the bus goes fast for curvy roads. Not knocking the bus driver he was very good . We did have to pull over once because someone had to vomit because they were motion sick. The stops are very short, you are covering a little over 300 miles in one day. We left at 0830 and arrived back at 1930. We were able to grab lunch in Lochness , we did stop at one Pitlichry, but only had 20 minutes. I would have loved to spent at least two hours there. Keep in mind no restroom on the bus. If I did it again I would choose a tour that is not as long and offers more time off the bus. The scenery was beautiful and our bus driver was fantastic, very knowledgeable.

The tour guide was great. The stops for food were too short didn’t have enough time to enjoy your food. Picture shows someone feeding a highland cow don’t be fooled like I was.
