Our driver/guide, Grant, was terrific - lots of history and local information all through the day. The trip was well organized, a good mix of time to walk, see the sites and shop. We opted for the steamboat cruise on Loch Katrine, which was well worth it, and toured Stirling Castle. The trip would have worth it for the scenery... More

We were expecting to hear lots about history and the region we were visting, but our guide didn't seem to know much. He would give a sentence here and there about things, but it was very sparse ("Inverness was founded by iron magnates" or "Don't visit Culloden, it's just an empty field"). Also, he left town late, then made an... More

Hi there, We are very sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your tour. The one day Loch Ness tour is our longest day tour, covering hundreds of miles over the course of the day. This is due to the sheer distance Loch Ness is situated from the central belt of Scotland. Whilst it is by far our most... More

My wife and I just retuned from the 3 day adventure to Skye with Gale as our guide. She was the most knowledgable person that could have taken one on this adventure. I would recommend this tour over and over again as it was the best trip I have been on. Job well done Gale and keep up the good... More

I just got back from my Easter getaway in the UK. What we took was a one-day tour from Glasgow to Loch Lomond, The Trossachs National Park & Stirling Castle and we had some pretty good time. The tour was well-balanced - we visited quite a few places for a daily trip and yet it was not tiring. Our guide... More

We did a four day trip through the Highlands and Islands with Timberbush Tours. The mini-bus was a comfortable way to travel, the driver was very knowledgeable and had lots of amusing and interesting stories to tell. The B&Bs were excellent and even the weather was good. I'd go with them again. More

Had a great day tour of Loch Ness and the Highlands! This allowed my friend and I who are young students the ability to see the countryside, which is mainly inaccessible without a car. I really think I've seen a ton, and if anything the tour could have been slightly shorter! But seeing Loch Ness, all of the other lakes,... More

We liked the tour a lot because you get to see the most out of Scotland. It gets a bit tiring towards the end, but it totally worths - the landscape with still lakes and mountains mirroring into them is very beautiful and you cover the Highlands and the famous Loch Ness in one day. The mini-bus is a bit... More

The cost is nominal and the quality of the transport is suitable. Our guide, Donald, was one of the most educated people in history I ever knew. He told us so much about Scotland and its... More
