    Using Viator was very easy. The meet up and drop off location was in well lit open convenient location on a main avenue. Our guide Ally was knowledgeable in Scottish history and provided us with many photo stops along the way. We chose the Glencoe, Highlands, Loch Ness tour. The tour exceeded our expectations in culture, Highlands folklore and history as well as native species education.

    This was a fabulous tour of the Highlands. We went in February and the Highlands were covered in snow. Gorgeous. Dont bother eating at any restaurant when your visiting loch ness however.

    So I took my two daughters 9 and 12 as well as my wife on the trip to Glencoe, through the highlands and to Loch Ness. I was concerned that the kids wouldn’t enjoy it but my 12 yr old said that the interesting facts along the way kept her really interested, when we stopped at Loch Ness we also took the boat trip which can be booked on the day. There was just the right amount of stops on the trip to either look round, grab a drink or just take a comfort break and some impromptu ones as well for great picture opportunities. The weather was dreadful but Barbara (our driver) made the experience from start to finish. It’s a long day and as long as you are aware of this then you will enjoy it. If you are a family then get to the mini bus early as then you will be seated together.

    The highlands are stunning. Not much to see at Loch ness. Driver/guide caused this one star rating. He did not stop talking for 12 hours! Constant monologue. Not just about the history of scotland but anything he could think of. Draining and exhausting. He ruined it for us

    Amazing! Aaron was a fantastic tour guide and the trip was just gorgeous. I plan to go again and maybe even try a 3-5 day tour with this company in the future.

    Easy check-in and friendly staff. Our guide for the day, Rov.. oh no sorry :P SEAN, was very very a safe driver, nice, funny, and knew SO MUCH about so many subjects related to Scotland (from geology to Harry Potter, via animal kingdoms, legends and History of course, his fav subject) that he made this very long day very pleasurable. In between the statutory stops, he stopped for photos in some gorgeous places! Thank You Sean, I had dreamt of seeing the highlands for so long, you made it memorable ! Will travel again with Rabbies next time :D

    Thank you Jonathon for a fantastic tour! We loved it! Full of historical information and loved the banter!

    The bus driver did his best to make up for the dreary weather. Dont do this trip in the winter. You are on the road for 12 hours, half of which is in the dark. I am sure that it is beautiful in the summer. Got all of the way to Loch Ness only to discover that the boat was sold out. I had two friends take the same tour with Timberbush and Wee Tours on the same day and they were much happier with their trips. They saw more and the bus driver provided them with tickets to the boat.

    Fiona was our tour guide. It was an excellent tour and we were fortunate enough to get a great weather day. The tour was interesting and informative. The scenery was breathtaking. Highly recommend taking this tour.

    Fantastic ... James C was excellent... very knowledgeable and personable. The trip was long but didn’t feel it because James’ story telling was quite entertaining.
