So glad we did this! We had a great day and are so happy we got to see a bit of the Highlands during our trip to Edinburgh. We travelled with kids ages 2-6 and our guide Martin did a great job adapting the tour a bit to better suit our family.

Jimmy was excellent. There had been a storm in the area the night before and some of the stops were without power. Jimmy didn’t miss a beat. He knew places only visited by the “Locals,” so we could grab a bite, souvenirs, and use the restroom. We had our youngest daughter with us, just turned 9, and she loved it. She still talks about feeding the “Harry Coo!” That’s Scottish for Highland Cow. If you want to see The Scottish Highlands, this is the way to do it!

Unforgettable Highlands Tour with Jimmy! Jimmy was the perfect guide for exploring the Scottish Highlands. He combined deep local knowledge with a warm, friendly personality and just the right touch of humor. We visited breathtaking viewpoints and hidden gems we’d never have found on our own, all while learning fascinating history and legends. The pace was relaxed but we covered so much. By the end of the day it felt like we were traveling with a friend. I can’t recommend Jimmy enough—this tour was the highlight of our trip!

Corrine was a really good guide and driver. She made sure we saw all the sights that we expected to see. I recommend her highly
