About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Mary Helene B0 contributionsDon’t go with a group! Go with Andrew!My husband and I went on a tour of the Isle of Skye with Andrew and it was fantastic! Andrew has so much historical knowledge and a depth of understanding about the Highlands that is unmatched. He kept us laughing + entertained and we so enjoyed our day! We also loved that we had so many options about where to go and what to see!Written 10 March 2025
- Tourist003979731970 contributionsAndrew at Hame ToursMy boyfriend and I had the pleasure of experiencing Foyer's Falls and its gorgeous surrounding area through the eyes of our driver Andrew at hametours.scot. Andrew's wealth of wisdom, humor, and personal touch gave us the experience of a lifetime.Written 30 November 2024
- Trail564340777600 contributionsFantastic Isle of Skye and Wester Ross ToursDid 2 tours, the Western Ross and Isle of Skye, with Hame Tours. Communication with Andrew via email was always prompt and smooth. Our guide cum driver, Michael, was super friendly and very accommodating. Thanks for the wonderful memories!Written 16 November 2024
- FarAway464363016100 contributionsFantastic Private Day Tour to Isle of Skye from InvernessFantastic tour! We went from Inverness to Isle of Skye and stopped at various viewpoints and castles along the way. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and personal both of Scottish history and Scottish culture. He tailored the tour to the level of depth and length we were looking for.Written 2 November 2024
- Woodruffja0 contributionsHame Tours to the RescueOur twenty-fifth wedding anniversary trip to Scotland was in peril of falling completely apart before it could get started. On our first full day in Scotland, the tour guide engaged by our travel company was a no-show. There we were, with a full day trip to see the best of the Scottish Highlands, stranded at our hotel with no driver, no guide, no tickets, and the driver/guide telling us he had us on his books for a different day. Fortunately, the concierge suggested he give Andrew MacDonald of Hame Tours a call. Andrew arrived soon afterwards, and the rest, as they say, is the stuff great travel stories and wonderful memories are made of. Andrew is engaging, personable, deeply knowledgeable, and fun to be with. He got our day immediately back on track. Are you interested in Scottish history? Current events? Architecture? Archeology? Anthropology? How about a four thousand-year old house? Andrew MacDonald is your man. He even quoted poetry and added some Scottish folk songs in a lovely light baritone. If you are planning a trip to Inverness, and are looking for a private guided tour of the best the Highlands has to offer, you cannot do any better than Hame Tours.Written 12 October 2024
- kathy b0 contributionsGreat guide…..and great guy !Fabulous tour with Michael. Very knowledgeable of Inverness and surrounding area. There were 4 couples and his van was comfortable, clean and a great way to see the area. His sense of humor was delightful and he was willing to accommodate as needed. Highly recommend using Michael if you are in the Inverness areaWritten 29 September 2024
- v S0 contributionsVery positive experience! If we come back we would definitely request Michael Kerr again!Michael was our guide who picked us up in a very comfortable Mercedes van promptly at 9:00 am. He was very knowledgeable, informative and filled with local stories. He made great Outlander references and was informative with fun facts about Outlander! My husband was eager to trying on a kilt and Michael directed us to a beautiful store where they sold kilts and other Scottish apparel.Written 19 August 2024

Informative and accommodating. Exceeded my expectations, and we thoroughly enjoyed the service he provided.Written 11 August 2024
- Angelam26110 contributionsThe highlight of our trip in Scotland!Absolutely recommended! My family and I did a private tour of the Isle of Skye last week, and it was the highlight of our whole week in Scotland. Communication and planning went smoothly: even though we only contacted Andrew a couple of weeks in advance, he helped us organise it and ensured we had a car and a guide for 6 people. On the day, our amazing driver Michael K. went above and beyond to give us the best possible experience. Michel's a great driver, really nice to chat with, and incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Scottish culture and history. He made sure we covered all the spots we wanted to visit, sharing some Scottish snacks and drinks on the way, and accommodating every single preference of our group. We didn't think we could cover so much in one day, but somehow Michael made it happen. Thanks Michael and Hame tours for an unforgettable day!Written 4 August 2024

- MalvernDad0 contributionsWonderful Scottish Higland Tour Guide and DriverWe used Andrew MacDonald for an airport pickup and two full day tours this last Saturday and Sunday. He was highly referred by the Ness Walk Hotel, one of the best hotels in Inverness. My son and I could not have been happier with Andrew. We originally booked one day, and then booked a second day a few hours after finishing our first day of touring the area around Loch Ness. Our second day tour was the area around the Black Isle. Andrew is extremely knowledgeable about the area, the Highland clan system and Scotland and British history in general. He quoted poetry and sang us some songs while he drove. We both came away with a greater appreciation of the highlands and Scottish and Highlander history and culture. We highly recommend using Andrew for tours!Written 26 November 2023
- ronas9100 contributionsOn tour with Andrew MacDonald Priceless!Andrew MacDonald our private tour driver was a “Amazing”!!!The goal was to visit Dunbeath Castle north in the highlands where my Grandmother worked 125 years ago with my daughters. We contacted Andrew before traveling with a few places we wanted to visit he accomplished that and more. We had an appointment at 11:00 am garden tour at the castle with Neil (the gardener such a sweet man). We stopped at Dunbeath Heritage Centre (to learn some family history) Neil Gunn memorial in the harbour Andrew was so patient with us. We were in aw of everything he let us take it all in. Andrew kept us on schedule but added so much more by singing to us (a beautiful voice) no radio needed 🥰We had the full experience going off the main road to pick Heather in the highlands, seeing the hills and glens, stopped at an extra castle to view Dunrobin Castle, stopped at a memorial for Sir John a MacDonald in the hills we didn’t know existed so many memories made!!! Andrew kept us safe on the narrow roads with so much historical knowledge of the area we would have never known without him. I can’t tell you how much we appreciated you which made the one day out of our 7 days tour of Scotland the most precious. My heart is over flowing you made a dream come true I can’t Thank you enough! Please ask for Andrew MacDonald you won’t be disappointed! Till me meet again my friend safe travelsWritten 15 October 2023

Our party, two brothers and our wives, booked the private Outlander Experience in the Scottish Highlands from Inverness with hopes of seeing sites from the phenomenal books and show, and maybe a bit more of the Scottish Highlands. What we received, from Hame Tours Inverness, was truly a once in a lifetime event.
Our tour guide, Michael Kerr, arrived at our hotel on time and full of enthusiasm for the day ahead. We remember his last name well because he introduced himself and acknowledged that the kilt he was wearing was indeed his family's tartan. We shared then that the brothers had Scottish heritage and our disappointment that our clan castle was no longer open for tours, which he found interesting and made us feel as if he was truly trying to get to know us. Our feeling of being in good hands was only enhanced when we climbed in the Mercedes Benz van! Before he even put the van in Drive, Michael outlined the day ahead, to confirm that's what we wanted, and then made sure we understood that, as this was a private tour, we could alter the itinerary however it suited us. We never thought he would alter the itinerary to suit us beyond our wildest dreams.
The tour began, as Outlander begins, with a stop at the cairns (thought to be the inspiration for where Claire is transported). Michael proved himself knowledgeable and was so engaging that we thoroughly enjoyed his presentations about the stones. Then, it was on to the Culloden Visitor Center and tour of the battlefield. Michael gave us plenty of time to tour the visitor center unrushed and then led us on a walking tour of much of the battlefield. Again, he was knowledgeable, and it felt like an old friend sharing a travel tale, not like a professor regurgitating a history lesson. After a painful trip through the gift shop (painful to my wallet!), we were then presented with the most wonderful gift.
While our little party took our time exploring the Culloden Visitor Center, Michael was busy researching our family name, Scottish heritage, and the nearby castle. While he drove us to the next stops on the original itinerary, he shared with us what he found out about our heritage and the castle. We then agreed to forego a couple of the original stops to go on a Monroe family quest. Michael took us to monuments that were well and truly off the beaten path, but commemorated battles the Munro clan engaged in hundreds of years ago. He then took us to see the castle, even if from afar, before taking us to a cemetery where many of our ancestors are buried.
We could not have come up with a tour like this in our wildest dreams! Seeing the monuments and sites were in and of themselves amazing, but being led there by someone who was truly excited to give us this gift was beyond words. Every site on the original tour is absolutely a must see if you're touring Inverness, whether you're a fan of the Gabaldon show or not. Touring with a guide like Michael makes it a once in a lifetime event.

We greatly enjoyed our private Outlander tour with our guide, Michael. We (four adults) had some interest in seeing Outlander sites, but primarily in the people and places important to the Rebellion culminating in 1746, and in the Clava Cairns.
Michael was an ideal guide. He tailored the tour to our interests, skipping a couple of small sites in Inverness we'd already toured, and suggesting an itinerary that fit our available time and interest. We spend a lot of time at Culloden, which was well worth it, and Michael scheduled other visits around that.
Michael was a great storyteller, with topics ranging from the Pictish peoples to Prince Charlie's travels, both at the head of an army and on the run from the victorious English army, to local flora, and his father and brother's favorite whiskys. One of the best practices a guide can offer is the willingness to answer a question with "I don't know." We asked a LOT of questions and Michael made clear the few times he was conjecturing, which gave us confidence in the accuracy of all we learned.
In all, we visited Culloden (a great museum that prepared us well to view the battlefield), Clava Cairns, Leod Castle, and the ruins of the Beauly Priory.
And, finally, we met Jamie Frasier; we'll let Michael tell you that tale.
In all, we could not have enjoyed ourselves more on our full-day adventure.

Our guide Michael did an outstanding job providing us with a memorable day. We got lucky with the weather (beautiful sunny day), and while we enjoyed the sites linked to Outlander, especially the Culloden Battlefield which was very moving, we loved the beauty of the Scottish countryside. A whisky tasting at Singleton was a nice treat, as was the 500+ year old Spanish Chestnut tree where we took photos. Kelli and I also enjoyed meeting "the real Jamie Fraser," who posed for us as only a Scottish Highland bull could! Wonderful day. Enjoyed every minute.

Our tour with Steve was amazing! He personalized the tour for our needs and added in some special surprises that were some of my favorite parts of the whole trip to Scotland! He was very knowledgeable and explained the history of the Jacobite uprising, Culloden Battle, Fraser and Mackenzie clans, Clava Cairns, Loch Ness monster etc. He pointed out contributions from Diana Gabaldon on sites associated with Outlander. He also took us to many people sites and made sure we had plenty of time to walk around/take pictures etc. I would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Inverness whether they have read/seen Outlander or not!

Our original Scottish Tour was cancelled a few weeks before our visit due to lack of participation so we had to scramble to recreate our trip before arriving. Our travel agent booked this tour for us so we were not sure what to expect. This day/tour ended up being the BEST day of our trip thanks to our tour guide Steve. He personalized our tour by finding us Highland Cows to visit, keeping us caffeinated while showing us off the beaten path sights, answering ALL of our questions during our stops at Clava Cairns and Culloden, suggesting a great restaurant (Prime) and bookstore(Leakey's) in Inverness, allowing LOTS of shopping time, and finding the best spots for pictures while looking for Nessie! Thank you Steve!

Based on previous reviews, I booked this tour thinking I was getting a tour guide who knew Scottish history and Outlander. However I was highly disappointed with the guide’s lack of knowledge of both. He was a great driver who very efficiently got us from one place to the next however there was no discussion of history while driving. Make sure you follow the tour stops and do not deviate from the tour.

We went on this tour with our guide and driver of the day Michael. we had an outstanding trip with Michael not only taking us on the pre decided tour but also showed us some places which were not initially planned. Michael was dressed in traditional Scottish attire and was a wonderful company thru the day.
During the trip mid afternoon my agent from India called me and told that the next day trip which was going on the Hogwarts express stands cancelled as the train is over booked and though we have already pad but we cant board it. This was bad news and especially for my 10 yr old daughter it was as if the entire trip is useless without it, when Michael came to know about it he himself was very sad and tried all along by speaking to his contacts and trying to help us. Finally he suggested that we go early the next morning to Fort William and try and get tickets at the station- this helped and to our surprise we got the tickets. The fact that he went out of his way to help us speaks volume of his god nature and warmth.
Another thing to highlight is that while we were going thru this struggle and obviously we were very upset he went out of the way and paid for entry tickets to Castle Leod for me and my family and refused to take the money from me, something which was just not necessary but he went out of the way and showed what a wonderful man he is.
God bless you Michael and we look forward to hosting you in Mumbai sometime soon. Thank you once again for every thing my friend.

We spent 6 wonderful days on a private tour with Andrew from Edinburgh to the Highlands, Isle of Skye, Oban and back to Edinburgh. He took us absolutely everywhere - even shopping for clothes and a suitcase because British Air lost our luggage. We loved visiting all the Outlander sites, the breathtaking scenery, the many castles. Andrew's knowledge of the area and its history is outstanding. He is easy to talk to and I feel like we made a life long friend. He made wonderful suggestions for cafes and restaurants (Ee-usk in Oban has to die for seafood). We even made an unexpected stop at Midhope Castle (aka Lallybrach in Outlander). I can't say enough good things about Andrew and our tour of Scotland. I highly recommend Hame Tours.

Our tour guide Donald was a lot of fun. He veered off the beaten path a few times, to give us a little taste of “local flavor” (we especially liked Hazie, Masie, and Daisy). Unfortunately, Fort George was closed due to the Queen’s funeral, but Donald adjusted, and took us to Cawdor Castle instead. Overall, the tour was an excellent way to see the scenery of the Highlands, and Donald was an informative and engaging companion for the day.

Our Outlander experience was more than we could have ever hoped for. Our tour guide, Michael, was exceptional. He was so knowledgeable, funny, courteous, and thoughtful. The trip was much more than just seeing places from the Outlander movies. He helped us so much with our research on our Scottish ancestors. We are forever grateful to him for being so helpful and flexible. He's the Best! We will always remember that memorable day, and we are thankful to Andrew, who set it all up for us and helped us on our first day in Inverness. Fantastic company. Thank you!
