We had a day tour around the Scottish highlands, Lochness and Patrick Douglas was our driver/tour guide. Patrick was not only informative, humorous and a safe driver but he was able to point out every attraction along the way - as well as tell us intimate details about his life. More

Our two day trip to the West Highlands of Scotland with an overnight stay in Fort William was really great. We saw some really beautiful scenery, visited so many fascinating places and our driver/guide told us so much about everywhere that we saw. The minibus was very comfortable and we arrived back in Edinburgh full of wonderful memories and hundreds... More

We've just returned from a fantastic 2 day tour to the Scottish Highlands. We visited so many interesting places and saw wonderful scenery - snow on the mountains, beautiful lochs and rivers and magnificent castles. It was incredible how much we packed in over the 2 days and our driver stopped so many times to allow us to see the... More

We went on the day tour to Oban and the Western Highlands last week and we cannot recommend this highly enough. It far exceeded our expectations even though it was in the gloomy month of January. The tour guide/driver Fred made the experience all the more enjoyable with his knowledge of history, places, sense of humour and of course his... More

I highly recommend the day tour from Edinburgh to Loch Ness with this company. The driver Fred was brilliant, adding music to enjoy the scenery which was traditional and very much appreciated by all on board. His knowledge of the history and modern stories of all the places we passed were amazing and impressive. The scene all the way to... More

We took this one day tour with our driver Dave, who was terrific. He was knowledgeable, pleasant and entertaining, keeping up his patter throughout most of the first leg of the trip. Later on, he would comment only when we came upon something of interest, or someone asked a question, and by late in the afternoon, when many on the... More

I wasn't sure I wanted to leave Edinburgh during their vibrant pre-Christmas festival, but I felt compelled to see the countryside for a day. We visited Rosslyn Chapel, Melrose, and Glenkinchie Distillery while driving country farm roads through rolling hills and lovely villages. But the day was made with the stories and songs provided by our tour guide, Eric. A... More
