Absolutely stunning weather and a very knowledgeable guide (Nicola) made this a great finish to our week-long Scottish vacation. A great combination of history (including natural history of the areas), music, and photo opportunities at some incredibly scenic locations in the Scottish Highlands. Would definitely recommend this trip to everyone looking for a day getaway from Glasgow! Our daughter, who... More

A great full day out with our Professional Guide/Driver (John). Started on time and finished on time. His minor adaptions to the tour made significant positive impact on the enjoyment by all. Good balance between information/stories and a wide range of background music. Value for money. More

I did the trip to Glencoe, The Great Glen en Loch Ness. I got a "real" impression of Scotland: cloudy, heavy rains and storms! We nearly couldn't get out of the mini van, but thanks to our wonderful guide Nicola the day became an experience I wouldn't have missed for the world. I learnt lots about Scottish history, and her... More

We took the 3-day tour from Glasgow to the Isle of Skye. Our driver was Michael who drove us from Glasgow to Callander where we met up with the other group from Edinburgh. From then on, Eric was our guide for the rest of the tour and he was AMAZING. Eric is just so enthusiastic, knowledgeable about everything Scottish and... More

Did this trip on a Sunday in early May. John our driver/guide was a genius - great engagement with the group, brilliant music all day, knowledgeable commentary, delightful stories, and a wonderful sense of humour. He made the trip very memorable. The vehicles are brand new, spotless and very comfortable. Every detail has been thought of along the way, and... More

I was on the tour to Stirling Castle, Loch Lomond and the whiskey distillery with Michael as the driver and guide. He was so informative and interesting and did a fantastic job. I loved the freedom to choose my own lunch spot from places he pointed out - no being herded into some bleak place. It was also great to... More

Michael was so enthusiatic and interesting he really made the day! More than anything he enjoyed himself telling the history in a fun way. The tour was great- leaving lots of time for exploring. Stiring Castle was a highlight. While not previously a whiskey fan, I loved it by the end of the tour! More

My sister and I took the day tour of Loch Ness and the Highlands on April 30, 2012. Right from meeting our guide, John McDermott, we were having a wonderful time. He was very friendly and we were smiling right from when the vehicle left George Square. He was a wealth of information on all the sites along the way,... More

Booked a day trip to Oban for Easter Monday but did not bother to bring my camera as it was all places I thought I had seen before. I really should have known better having been on the Skye trip last year with them. Driving to places on your own or going with Rabbies could not be more different. The... More
