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.

I love seeing the highland cattle! Brian was very caring and told great stories. We covered a lot of ground in the ride. Amazing!

I have been on similar tours in the past and by far Brian was the most informative guide. He knew details about all the areas we went to. Brian went beyond the call of duty to make sure we all had the opportunity to take some wonderful photos and make some great memories.

The Scottish Highlands tour was the highlight of my trip to Scotland. The views were simply breathtaking and the tour guide Brian was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining, a credit to you for being a keeper of knowledge and a sharer of stories, memory making for sure . From the highlands and Loch’s to the charming villages, every stop on the tour was worth it. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Scotland. Don't miss out on this incredible experience!

Took a trip with Brandon with my best friend. Sat at the very front and he was extremely attentive! Every time we saw the sheep, we would say, “Ooo! Sheep sheep!” or when we saw some ‘coos’ we would say, “Look, there’s moo moos!” And he went along with it!
You can tell that he is very knowledgable about the places the tour covers due to the cheeky humor he was able to insert during the tour. His humor definitely made the tour very engaging the entire time. Even though I was getting tired from the adventure at the end, I didn’t want to close my eyes for the fear of missing out on his funny commentaries and the stunning views. All the food recommendations he made during the stops were SPOT ON, like Mhor’s Bread in Callander.
Brandon’s musical talents are also very pleasing to hear, and throughout the trip he will hum or sing a little with a pleasant voice; plenty were definitely themed songs to match the ambience of the destination. When he sang a certain song near the end of the trip, it felt very personal and made me tear up because I was so moved by it. All in all, Brandon is an exceptional tour driver!

No monster on site but still worth it, great views, accompanied with music and narrative. The Highlands are a must see!

My wife signed us up for this tour. I haven't seen any Outlander episodes. However, I had a great time. Brian was an amazing host. He taught me a lot about Outlander and Scottish history. This was the highlight of our Scotland tour. The castles were very beautiful and very few people were there. It was a nice change of pace compared to the hustle-and-bustle of Edinburgh. Pro Tip: Make sure you have some cash to tip your driver. Once again---thank you Brian for making this trip special !!!!

Drop Offs: Although we are happy to collect you in the morning, we are unable to guarantee you will be dropped off exactly where you were picked up at the end of the tour. If you are staying en route back into the city you will be dropped off, the tour driver will discuss this with you. We drop off at convenient points back in the City Centre.

Hi Rhuta,
Thanks for your question.
Unfortunately 5 is the minumum age for all passengers on board. This is for safety reasons we must abide by and for the comfort of all passengers.

Hello
We have toilets on board most of our coaches but this depends on the tour you choose and the time of year you travel.
On way back from hiland tour where do we get dropped in edinburgh? How far from hotel radisson blue? Kindly reply in english. Thank u

H, we offer city central drops offs. Liaise with the driver on the day though Princes Street will be most likely for you.
