I had a wonderful experience on the 1-day Loch Ness Hunter tour. The weather was raining off and on during the day, and we had stunning views through the highlands, lowlands, and on Loch Ness. The staff was very helpful in the morning, getting onto the correct bus, and our bus driver and tour guide, Rich, was engaging, friendly, and wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the history and locations. His stories were great! I learned so much! The Loch Ness cruise was an additional 16 GBP (the cost at the kiosk was 21 GBP). Worth the add-on to your ticket when booking! There were 16 people in total on our bus, plus Rich, the driver. Crowds were quite low during our day trip on Wednesday in December. It was perfect. Great for those wishing for a day trip to explore a taste of the highlands on a shorter visit. I would go back to many of the spots for a longer stay or hiking adventure!

Great time from booking to finish! Sophie was our driver and delivered with bells on!!! Very informative commentary, exceptional weather for December so we were very lucky. Outstanding views. Would highly recommend the Loch Ness boat tour, we only had a day to do lots in and felt we got a good monitor insight. Try it out! Extra thanks to Sophie too!!

I cannot recommend our guide, Torva (or Lord Torva Farqard) , highly enough! This was more than just a tour of the Scottish Highlands; it was an immersive journey brought to life by a true storyteller. From the moment we set off, Torva captivated us with a treasure trove of fascinating stories, rich history, and captivating legends connected to every glen and loch we passed. Their knowledge of the area is exceptional, but what truly set this experience apart was the sheer passion they clearly have for Scotland and its incredible heritage. Every anecdote was delivered with such genuine enthusiasm and warmth, making the landscapes feel truly alive. They didn't just point out sites; they wove narratives that allowed us to feel the spirit of the Highlands—the triumphs and the tragedies of its people. If you are looking for a guide who will not only show you the stunning beauty of the Scottish Highlands but also infect you with their genuine love and passion for the history and folklore of this magical country, look no further. This was a five-star experience from start to finish. Thank you for an unforgettable trip! Ps. Thank you for the great music!

Rich is the best tour guide and driver. I feel bad for him because he cleaned the vomitus for one of our tourist. It’s not his job but he did it and try to make us feel nicer with the air refresher. He kept updating everyone is ok. A big thumbs up for Rich. 4 stars rating is only because the behaviours of the tourists with me. They threw away the used tissue and cigarette on the ground. Motion sickness is not an excuse. I feel bad for the environment pollution.

My friends and I had a really great time today on a one-day guided tour of the Scottish Highlands. The experience itself was amazing, as we saw some of Scotland's wonderful wildlife. Our driver, Nestor, made the experience even better. Along the way, he made really interesting comments about the geography, history, and culture of Scotland, making the travel time super engaging. Plus, he had a great sense of humour, telling jokes that made us laugh. He was also a highly skilled driver who planned the stops carefully so that we could get the most out of the day.
