5.00We did this with our boys because we wanted to see the highlands but knew they would get bored and antsy on a group tour. We were able to decide our itinerary, schedule, everything. Michael was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much along the way.
Most amazing birthday ever!

5.00It was an incredible experience seeing the Scottish Highlands and getting to know more about Scotland. Our tour guide, Chris, was the best! And I got to see some Highland cows and tried Haggis, neeps and tatties! It was so so 😆.
Best day ever

5.00What an incredible trip! Scott picked us up from our hotel and from the get go was full of character and fascinating stories to keep us enticed on our journey to Glencoe. Unbeknownst to me, my now fiance and Scott had carefully planned the trip to ensure that we were in the most idyllic spot when he got down on one knee. This even involved the weather which I'm sure Scott meticulously planned so it just began snowing when James popped the question. We felt truly looked after and in safe hands throughout our entire trip. Thank you Scott for your kindness, fantastic storytelling and genuine passion for your country that you shared with us. It is a trip we will never forget. From Mr and Mrs (soon to be) Bolton 🎉
Highly Recommend This Experience

5.00This tour was the highlight of our UK trip! Chris was very kind in accommodating our pick up from different hotels and drop off at a different location entirely. He is a gifted storyteller, sharing Scotland's history in an engaging manner. The scenery in Glen Coe was stunning and I'm not sure Chris didn't arrange the snow on our behalf. We were lucky to catch a quick visit with some wee hairy coos before they leave for their winter home! I recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for some context to their visit to Edinburgh. Thank you, Chris!
Great way to spend the day!

5.00On 27 August 2024, my wife and I went on a private tour to Glencoe in the Scottish highlands. Our driver and tour guide was Chris and we felt really comfortable and safe with him as a driver. Chris provided us with a brilliant and extensive presentation of Scottish history whilst driving to the highlands. The presentation enabled us to have a clearer understanding of Scotland’s history and better appreciate the reasons behind the numerous upheavals in Scotland’s past. The depth of Chris’ historical knowledge was simply amazing, The information we have gained from Chris will clearly enhance our appreciation of the things we see and do during the remainder of our week in Edinburgh. Chris is very personable and this contributed to making the day very enjoyable. We highly recommend going on one of Chris’ private tours. The day was well worth the money.
