Gary is THE BEST!

We truly don’t know where to start, our 5 days with Gary was one of the best experiences of our trip. He instantly had us laughing, and was so incredibly personable. We loved that he truly wanted to get to know us and take us to places we were interested in (along with our packed itinerary!). We felt his love of Scotland in everything he told us, and it truly made us appreciate the beauty of the nature and the Scottish culture. He’s a driver/guide that you’ll never forget and easy to say, a new lifelong friend! If I could give him & the company 100 stars, I would.

Steve Watson, was an excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgable of the Highlands giving us details and background as we drove to each location on our tour. He added the personal touch by finding our interest and adding locations we thoroughly enjoyed. I give Steve my highest recommendation.

Best Ever Trip to Scotland

Our 10 day trip to Edinburgh, Skye and the Highlands was wonderful! We had the best driver, Nick. He had expansive knowledge of the history and geography of Scotland and made sure we saw all of the best sights. He also went out of his way to help us with the trips little foibles like a debit card that was eaten by the bank ATM and a broken watch charger. He took us to out of the way places that we would have missed if we had stuck strictly to the itinerary. So, go to Scotland and get Nick as your driver! You won't regret it.

We did a three day tour from Edinburgh to Inverness then to Glasgow. Michael, our guide, was great. Easygoing, fun, and informative, he made a few additional stops at distilleries that made the trip even better. Highly recommend this tour, or any with MTB. Definitely want to go back!
Another awesome time in Scotland

My family and I had another excellent time discovering the Highlands in Scotland with Steve Watson our driver for 7 days. This is our second time using MTB Private Hire and once again they went above and beyond our expectations. Steve customized our time in the Highlands perfectly with castles, distilleries, hikes, golf, and filling us in on Scottish history along the way. Steve definitely added to the memories of our time visiting Scotland. He became a part of our families vacation and went out of his way on multiple occasions to make our trip even more memorable. We highly recommend MTB Private Hire from airport pick ups to seven day adventures. Thank you so much Mike & Steve. We look forward to another trip to Scotland and using your services once again.
