You'll see Loch Lomond through your panoramic window as we meander its western shores. If you look to the right you’ll see Ben Lomond, Scotland’s most southerly Munro (a mountain above 3000 feet) and your first of the tour. We'll also have a short refreshment stop nearby to the loch.
Rest and be Thankful
We pause for photos at the ‘Rest and Be Thankful’, an iconic Scottish viewpoint so named thanks to the words carved in stone by weary soldiers who built the original military road in 1753.

Great company!

5.00Stuart was a fantastic driver and tour guide! He was very knowledgeable of the areas we went to and we appreciated his insight. The highlands are gorgeous and we are glad we took this tour to be able to see them intimately. We received a message on WhatsApp the day before with the full details and exact meeting place so it made the check in process easy. Our mini coach sat 16 but only 9 were on our tour. Our guide let us know that they will not cancel a tour if it has a low amount of people. This company will still go out even if it is 1 person. That made us feel good about the company. Fantastic experience! Would recommend to anyone and book again ourselves!
Insightful, fun, and relaxing

5.00It was an amazing trip, with a lot of memories to collect. Scott was incredible with his guidance and humor. We usually go on our own to discover places and were thinking a lot before using the service. But it turned out to be an eye-opener, a pleasant and relaxing trip. I'd advise people to just go for it, without thinking twice. It's safe, adventurous, convenient, relaxing, and fun, Whether you are a solo traveler, a couple, a family, or with your friends, Scott, our guide, just made our day. I'd always choose him again and again as a guide for a journey if I have to book again. A good guide does make a difference. Just ask Scott, and he would give you the best recommendations. During this journey, we had the best sightings and food, and we made some good friends.

5.00If you want to explore Scotland in a day and learn some interesting facts, this is a great tour to do. The tour was approximately 10.5 hours long. You are traveling in a 16-passenger Mercedes mini coach. Maggie, our tour guide, was fantastic. She was friendly and very knowledgeable in everything. She shared some fun facts throughout the trip. Make sure to wear a rain jacket or bring an umbrella because you will definitely need it.
Excellent

5.00This was the most brilliant tour. If anything, the descriptions undersell how wonderful it is. Gary was delightful and informative. He played Scottish music in between his anecdote-filled commentary. There were so many stops that there were no terribly long stretches of driving, and I didn't want to sleep because the countryside was totally gorgeous. Thank you Gary!
Loved this tour! Alan...

5.00This was an incredible tour of Scotland! Our tour guide, Al, made the trip worth it! He was very entertaining and knowledgeable about Scotland. The stops gave us plenty of time to explore and sights we saw during the drive were beautiful. We were transported in a Mercedes Sprinter Van that was spacious enough to be comfortable but also kept the group at a small enough size to allow us to visit more sites and stay on schedule. We are grateful for the experience we had and that we had Al as our tour guide!
Awesome tour

5.00I’ve booked many tours over the years, but this one has definitely topped them all. The itinerary was excellent, and our guide Maggie was exceptional — combining extensive knowledge, a great sense of humour, and an engaging, interactive approach with the group. We felt safe throughout the journey as we were expertly driven around all the sights and back. If you’re looking to explore a lot in one day while enjoying a fantastic experience and great value for money, this is definitely the tour to book.
