We enjoyed our tour very much. Donald our guide was very informative and entertaining. He got everyone involved, making the tour that much more fun. We could have spent more time at Urquhart Castle, but took lots of pictures nontheless. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the Inverness area. more

The weather was misty and wet for our cruise, but hey, this is Scotland after all. The boat had undercover outside areas so that we didn't get wet - but if you have to stand in the cabin the windows fog up and you can't see out. The scenery is lovely, and it's just a thrill to be out on... more

We took the Loch Ness tour to be abe to see Urquhart Castle where we planned to be married later in the week. The tour guide on the bus was very informative and entertaining on the trip to the boat. We had a beautiful day so the boat ride was wonderful although uneventful. Castle was amazing and the visitor center... more

October 2, 2009, It was cool and cloudy but the busride and boat ride were great. To see the Loch Ness up close along with the museum were well worth it all. We took the 6.5 hour cruise and bus ride. The pick up and drop off were close to city center and were easy to find. Highly recommended. more

the cruise is over hyped, their borchure and pricing a bit over done and over the top! as Inverness is a fairly small place and loch ness a local highlight, jacobite is a good option for those reasons only. If you know the area, you can also hire any of the local cruises for 10 quid and have a dekko!! more

I am sorry and also surprised to hear that you felt your experience with us was overhyped and overpriced. We are a 5* Visit Scotland attraction, operate all year round and only charge on average £1 more than our competitors. We are passionate about Loch Ness and the area and believe that we pass this on to our customers when...

Thank you very much for your review. I am delighted you had such a good time despite the grotty weather! Also thank you for the suggestion for hot food. Unfortunately our boats don't have the facilities for hot food, just hot drinks.

both me and my wife found the whole day just flew bye, the driver who picks you up was very informative (george i think was his name) he in part made the whole trip, you get plenty of time at the castle, you certainly don't feel rushed unlike some previous trips we have been on, and we can not review... more
