A very nice day trip!

5.00We had a wonderful day trip with our guide Lorraine. She is super sweet, knows a lot and you like to listen to her. You learn a lot about life in Scotland. It was just super interesting. We drove to many beautiful places and you had plenty of time everywhere. Only at Culloden battlefield we would have needed a little more time (stay with us only half an hour). All in all it was really great and we can only recommend the tour! =)

5.00Lorraine was our guide for this group tour. We were in a minivan with a total of two passengers. She was exceptionally funny, smart, intelligent, and considerate to all the passengers. She provided useful information at every stop and clearly knows the area well. We enjoyed our day.

5.00Avril is the best tour operator we had on our trip to Scotland. Picked us up at the cruise ship docks and whisked us away for a great tour of Cawdor Castle, Colloden field and viewing of Loch Ness. The hairy “coos” was a treat. She had us back in plenty of time for our ship’s departure. Very friendly and informative.
Spectacular day with Avril!
