Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fun filled tour, from the amazing tour guide Fiona to the many attractions visited. Started at Invergordon and first stop was at Urquhart Castle. Then a boat trip on Loch Ness to the Caledonian Canal. The bus met us there and we were thrilled when we got close up to the Highland cows. Then onto Cawdor Castle to walk through the castle and gardens. And then to Culloden with all its history. A great day out and would highly recommend.

From beginning to end exploring the Highlands with Gavin was an incredible experience. Gavin was very responsive to emails leading up and once we arrived we found him to be a great source of knowledge, stories, humor, and deep rooted pride of his home. This was without a doubt the highlight of our 11 day tour of the UK and we would not hesitate to recommend Gavin or his team to anyone. Thank you for an incredible day!

Our group of 18 booked this tour and were met right on time at the port by Fiona. She was likable, knowledgeable and very entertaining. She was able to show us the sites but also share some of the Scottish culture. The boat ride to look for Nessie was a highlight of the tour.
We also loved the snacks and of course the whiskey at the end.
Thanks again Fiona for a fabulous tour.

Repeat customer! This time I brought family with me to experience Scotland. Amazing tour with our informative and fun guide Gavin. We really enjoyed the day. Will definitely book again next time! I’ve been spoiled now and the tours I’ve done with other companies pale in comparison. This is the one! Book it!

Gavin picked us up right on time, and drove the 4 of us around the Distilleries along the Spey River. We visited 5 distilleries that we were able to select prior to our trip. All along our way Gavin kept us going with his stories, cultural information, and general conversation about life in Scotland. Above all, he was able to explain the techniques, customs, and unique features of tasting whisky!! Thank You Gavin for a very enjoyable day - a real HOOLIE!

We recently did a bespoke whisky distillery tour with Gavin, which was FANTASTIC!! It was an absolute highlight of our trip to Scotland. I would give Gavin 10 stars if I could. Gavin picked us up in his immaculately clean BMW X5 and drove us to five different distilleries, and a delightful lunch stop. During our tour, he gave us a lifetime of knowledge about whisky, distilleries, and the local Highlands area.

Not only did we taste some great whisky at the distilleries, but Gavin introduced us to some Scottish whisky traditions which helped us enjoy the trip even further...I currently have my Quaich on order!

If you are a whisky enthusiast, you NEED to book a tour with Gavin's company, you will not be disappointed!! I'm already starting to plan a Scotland golf trip with friends that will undoubtedly include a day at the distilleries with Gavin.

Thanks for the great tour!

Gavin, the owner of the company, was incredible with communication and organizing a guide on short notice. Jim, our guide, arrived in Scottish attire, and his personality added so much flavour to the experience. He was knowledgeable, accommodating, a great photographer and a very safe driver. For « Outlander fans », he may be named Jim, but he’ll always be our Jamie!

Independently booked for a day tour while our cruise ship was in Invergordon. It was an excellent one to choose. We were met outside the port gates by our guide Fiona and proceeded to Urquhart Castle, then on an hour cruise on Loch Ness (sadly no site of Nessie), a trip to Cawdor Castle and grounds and finally to Culloden Battlefield where ended the visit with a Whisky Toast and Gaelic Singing with Fiona. What a great experience! In addition we were presented with Scottish treat and snacks along the way, and Fiona was a wealth of knowledge of the area. This is one tour I would take again if ever in the area.

This tour was a highlight for my group. We were fortunate enough to have Fiona as our guide and she was a pro! she kept the group enchanted with singing and Scottish poetry and detailed information about the people and places we were going. She gave us a taste of the culture with sweets and whiskey and the day went so fast!!...This tour was with Gavin Nicholson and it was exceptional. We hired the bus privately for 30 people and it was well worth it!!!

Our group of four had a fantastic day with Willie. We were on a UK cruise and had limited time, but we get in everything we wanted and easily got back to the ship in time.

Willie was fantastic. He learned everyone's names right away, had lots of interesting insights, and even found us some Highland cows when we asked. He was full of energy and very proud of his home and what he does. He figured out pretty quickly that I wanted to take nice photos and shared with me some good spots to take them. He also made sure our time was full and never wasted.

This was the experience we were looking for in a private guided tour, and I suspect if you're reading this, you do too. Stop searching; THIS is the right choice.
