My wife and I took a four day tour with John MacDonald, and every minute of it was just perfect. John is super knowledgable about all things Scotland. John is from the Highlands, and his love for the region comes through in his story telling. We learned a ton about Scotland and the Highlands, but at no point did we... More

My 10-year-old son and I could not have had more fun with John. We learned so much about Scottish history, flora, fauna, culture. It was just a great day and worth every penny. We can't wait to go back and do a multi-day tour! John was the best - he sets the bar so high no one else can compare... More

We took our second tour with John , a six day tour designed for us. It was amazing, like the most enjoyable history and anthropology course. It was fun, fascinating and in a beautiful place. We did seven ferries, drove over a thousand miles and were never bored, tired or uncomfortable. We are 70 years old and the organization John... More

En route to each location John sets the scene by taking you through the history of... More

We took a day trip to the Isle of Skye with John. We were a little anxious beforehand about spending 12 hours in the car with a stranger, but within minutes we knew we'd made the right choice. John is polite and funny, and he'll teach you a college-semester's worth of information about Scotland in a day. He also has... More

We joined John MacDonald for the "Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle and Eilean Donan Castle Tour". It was a full day of history, laughs, and amazing views from an actual Highlander. John was full of enthusiasm and made our day the best of our entire stay in Inverness - 5 days. He provided us the story of the Celts from 500AD... More
