5.00Donald was a great guide providing informational and anecdotal stories during the tour. The locations visited were all interesting with just the right amount of time spent at each. Private tour is the way to go!!
Best Tour Ever!

5.00We have traveled quite a bit and taken many tours....this tour was absolutely the best! Niall was fun to be with and an exceptional guide. His knowledge and passion for the history of the highlands made it come alive for us. We really enjoyed learning the history of Culloden from a Highlander. He was a wealth of information about all of the sights that visited. Our last stop was the most amusing - he said that we were going to meet Jamie Fraser (I am an Outlander fan). We actually did meet him - a very cute highland cow! I can't wait to go back to Scotland and will definitely be calling upon Niall again.
This was a wonderful look at part of the Highland history.

5.00Tour was everything as advertised & more. Great if you want to hit multiple places in a few hours. Pick up & drop you off flexible. Great if you don’t plan to get a rental. Gin & whiskey stops were very reputable. Kind staff at every stop. Niall was very informative and told us so much of Scotlands history. He went into a lot of history that led up to the Culloden Battle. Was also helpful for first time gin & whiskey drinkers. He accommodated every one of our requests and was wonderful to spend the day with!
Perfect day in the Highlands

5.00Niall was fabulous. He tailored the trip to our interests helping us spot Highland Coos. Our sons 17 and 21 thoroughly enjoyed his history lesson and are still discussing what they learned. It was a great experience and the best way to see the Highlands.

5.00Niall made our day extraordinary! He was friendly, funny, and knew so much about the places we visited! He also took us to the best wee gin distillery and we loved the Singleton distillery bar! If you want to laugh a lot and learn a lot, definitely book this tour! Thank you? Niall!
