5.00I had such a great trip to the Highlands, and our tour guide Anthony was a big reason why. He explained everything so well, told us loads of interesting history, and kept the whole group laughing. He also played some Scottish songs along the way, which was such a nice touch and really added to the vibe. Overall, the trip was totally worth it. Anthony made it so fun and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend!
