Beautiful day with lovely sights. Expect a long ride with short stops. You cover a lot of territory. Train ride is the best part.

Beautiful countryside and Jacobite train was wonderful. A long day and most time spent in vehicle. Be prepared for windy roads. Eiranne was a terrific guide. Her description of the are and stories of the past were terrific.

A lovely day out, made even better by Nicky, who gave us so much information. The perfect tour guide! Would have been better if we had a bit more time at some of the locations but is understandable as it's such a long day. I would highly recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed

Nicky was amazing! She had so many fun facts and stories as we drove and was more than happy to answer questions. Couldn’t have asked for a better Highlands tour! Thought the Jacobite would be the highlight of the day but was really just the icing on the cake.
