5.00We had a great day with Billy. Knowledgeable about the area and took us to see sights that we would not have seen otherwise
Amazing!

5.00Billy was a great guide. We followed his suggestions rather than the set itinerary and had some nice, off the beaten path experiences. Our favorite part was the Fairy Glen. It's a long day but totally worth it.

5.00Billy was a great guide, driver and photographer! He provided excellent recommendations! We did not follow the itinerary exactly and instead went along with Billy’s suggestions. We were very happy with his recommendations! Awesome private tour!
Must book private tour of Scottish highlands

5.00We loved our tour through the Scottish Highlands and to Isle of Skye. Our guide Roy was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. We learned so much about Scottish history and culture. We are extremely grateful for Roy’s expertise and navigating us across some tough roads. We covered so much in one day. All of the sights were majestic. What we loved about the private tour is being able to cater to our interests, for example we wanted to see highland cows and Roy found a farm for us to visit along our route. Would definitely book again next time we visit Scotland.

A perfect day exploring the Highlands and Isle of Skye

5.00We had a wonderful day with Billy exploring the highlands and the beautiful Isle of Skye. The pace was perfect for our family- we all enjoyed the many stops we made along the way and were able to see so many beautiful places and enjoy ourselves with Billy at the wheel. He kindly customized the start of the tour for us and took us to a perfect local spot for lunch. The tour truly showed us the beauty of the Isle and allowed us to relax and enjoy the incredible landscapes. A fantastic day!
Viator has disappointed us!

1.00We have spent a huge amount of money for our private one day tour. Nearly INR 120,000 (1.2 lakhs) In the morning it was very cool when we started but soon it started to get warmer. We asked Billy, our driver, to switch on the AC but he said that the AC doesn't work as he has not "charged it" (I think he was trying to say that the AC gas needed to be filled). After spending such an amount, I mentioned to Billy that we are very disappointed that the AC was not working (by the way, the car is also an old model and we did not expect this from Viator). He stopped the car and threatened to go back if I was going to complain. He said that he will not go all the way if I am going to complain and asked us to get a refund from Viator. We had not come all the way from India and be asked to go back from mid way on our private tour to the Isle of Skye...was not an option! Somehow I kept quiet not wanting to take the risk of him leaving us mid way. I am asthmatic and cannot travel in a car with windows rolled down due to the risk of dust but there was no option here as it was very hot and the Air Conditioning was not working. Obviously, this has been very stressing for us as a Family. Billy also kept telling us (at least 2-3 times) not to go to the Fairy Pools since there is a two hour difficult walk and that it's not worth it...so we decided not to go there, following his advice. It seems like we have made a big mistake by booking through Viator! Extremely disappointing!

5.00We had an amazing experience with Billy as our driver. He was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly kind and attentive to our needs. When our kids started to get tired, Billy was so flexible with the itinerary—making thoughtful adjustments that kept everyone comfortable and happy without missing the highlights. His friendly demeanor and excellent driving made the whole trip relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

5.00We were blessed to have Donald, the best guide ever!! All day long he went above and beyond what was expected of him to make sure we got to see and do everything we wanted. He was so pleasant and helpful which made our day totally stress-free. Best guided tour we have ever taken.
