Great views with amazing guide!
Niel was great fun! He told some very interesting stories about important characters in Scotland's history while showing us the most amazing views we've ever seen. He had the patience of a saint with some issues that happened during our tour (someone forgot their belongings in a previous stop and he managed to get them back in less than 15 minutes and still got us in time to all of our stops for the day). I 100% recommend this tour if you're a Harry Potter and nature fan, and I wish you get to do it with Niel as well.

I had the BEST TIME EVER!!
I had the BEST TIME EVER!!! No seriously, this tour took me to spots that made me completely and utterly fall in love with Scotland, was overwhelmed by the beauty of the highlands the whole time. Not only that, but i truly believe that my experience wouldn’t have been the same without Fraser!! Amazing storyteller through and through, from Mary queen of Scots to Robert De Bruce, every tale told by him made me feel like I was experiencing the history events myself. Oh boy, Fraser is an artist and a passionate one!
300% recommending this tour, you HAVE to do it if you’re in Edinburgh. (P.S: we for to see hairy coos as well yay!!)
Memorable birthday for my mom!
Great experience in the highlands with our guide Jason! Met some awesome tourists along the way, learned some interesting facts about Scotland, and got beautiful scenic views the whole way. Thanks for making my mom’s birthday extra memorable.
Lovely day with Ian and Peter
It was a nice experience visiting all those places around Edinburgh. Ian and Peter were very nice. We spent almost a day with them and it was never boring.
Fun Day in the Highlands
Ian & Stuart were wonderful. Had the best day - well structured and planned out trip to the highlands!
3 day tour to Isle of Skye
Definitely recommend the 3 day tour to Isle of Skye. Visited so many places in 3 days and the driver Jason was the best! He explained everything, from history to local myths and very easy to chat with. Always helpful and with recommendations for drinks and food!

Amazing experience that I will never forget! Fraser was an incredible driver and tour guide. So knowledgeable and engaging throughout the entire 12-hour tour. He kept everyone interested the whole time and had a fantastic sense of humour that kept us laughing along the way. On top of that, the playlist was amazing and made the journey even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

An impromptu tour on a last minute trip
What a great trip through the highlands of Scotland! The views of the mountains and valleys were spectacular, and our tour guide Fraser (pronounced Fraser, not Fraiser, I got you bud😉) was animated, knowledgeable and passionate about the stories of the area. Highly recommend.

What made the tour especially (our driver/guide Jason)
What made the tour especially outstanding was our driver and guide, Jason. He did an amazing job throughout the whole trip. Jason was not only an excellent driver, making us feel safe and comfortable during the long journey, but he was also a very knowledgeable and engaging guide. His stories, historical insights, and sense of humor made the tour even more enjoyable. You could really feel his passion for Scotland and for sharing it with visitors.
He also made sure everyone in the group had a great time, gave helpful tips for photos and viewpoints, and kept the day running smoothly without ever making us feel rushed.
Overall, this tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Scotland. The landscapes were stunning, the stops were perfectly chosen, and thanks to Jason’s fantastic guiding, the experience was truly special.
Highly recommended!
