Perfect day

5.00We had a perfect day with Lorraine. Pre-information on the meeting point and pick-up at the meeting point worked great. For the individual destinations we received information and interesting facts and always had enough time to explore everything ourselves. Were back on time. I can only recommend the tour.
Best way to see the Scottish Highlands

5.00This was our second tour with Avril's Travels and it didn't disappoint. Lorraine guided the tour expertly imparting a wealth of historic information laced with humor. Such an enjoyable day. While other tour groups waited in line, Lorraine's knowledge of the sites allowed us to be ahead of the queue. A fabulous day. Would highly recommend this tour.

5.00We were a group of 11 from Canada on a cruise and this tour was an absolute highlight of our trip. With only one day in Inverness/Invergordon, we wanted to maximize our time, and this tour delivered. Our guides Lorraine and Avril were both fantastic: knowledgeable, engaging, and great at answering questions. The five stops were perfectly timed, with beautiful scenery and history shared along the way. The small-group vans were comfortable, well organized, and felt very safe. Most importantly, we got back to our ship with plenty of time to spare. Highly recommend!
Awesome excursions
