Great tour! It wasn't too expensive and took us right into the countryside. Our guide-driver was hilarious and entertaining, giving us a good laugh the whole ride.

Exceptional driver, very knowledgeable narrator of the trip. It is a long time sitting on the bus but the scenery makes up for it. Very long day. Bring drinks and food with you as there isn't much time at stops to get a meal or bathroom break.

Our tour guide Gregor and driver Adam were FANTASTIC!! Absolutely amazing throughout the whole tour. Lots of interaction with the passengers and very knowledgable about all the key points and sights to see. I would highly recommend them as a team. They made our trip to Scotland and the highlands a memorable one and special. I look forward being on tour with them both again. Well done guys, and keep up the amazing work you do! 👍🏻

Although it was a long journey, our Guide cum driver Shafiq still could provide the tour information of every pass-by places while concentrating on his driving. It was not easy to do this multitasking role. I admired his abilities to handle all 51 passengers on board. I have to salute to him. Well done Guy!
