Our tour was outstanding. Alec, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable, funny and engaging. He had lots of information on the country, the history, the people and the geography. It was a bit of a long day, but we did many things in the full day tour. Highly recommended!!!

Dave was an excellent guide. The weather was drizzly but he worked around it to provide us with a great experience. He shared lots of Scottish history and played music by Scottish artists. He checked in to make sure that we were comfortable and provided tips on where to get specific items. He clearly stated our return times at the various stops so there was no confusion, and was incredibly accommodating. The itinerary was very ambitious and it is a long day, but there were plenty of comfort stops along the way. And while it rained, you can’t have rainbows without it. We made the most of the weather and had a wonderful time. I highly recommend this trip for anyone on a time crunch who wants to see the Isle of Skye.

A wonderful way to experience the Highlands. The pace of the tour, variety of amazing scenery, and background commentary by the guide made the day-long tour remarkable.

Great tour. Seana was very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend her. Added extra stops for a quick photo shoot. Not over crowded and everyone was great. Would definitely do a tour with that company again.

Expect a full 12 hour day and long hours on the bus but nice to leave the driving to the guide. If you know a good deal of the history of the area you might want to book a smaller tour with a local but for a first time trip with a large group a good choice.

It’s a long trip with plenty of stops . Great sites and very good driver. Busses could be upgraded to something more modern

What a fantastic tour! Long day but so worth it! Everything including our guide was amazing. Only drawback (I had read this from other reviews) was the lunch in Portree which restaurants were either closed or long line ups so opted for outdoor fish and chips which weren’t all that good.

Ryan was very entertaining and had lots of energy even with the long day. It was a great day, saw so many things and the weather was perfect!
