Loch Ness, Glencoe and Highlands Small Group Tour from Glasgow
Incredible Trip and Beautiful Scenes
Firstly, our tour leader, Colin, was an absolute gentleman and he made the whole experience even better with his knowledge of the land, culture and history. He was also very helpful in sharing advice for our trip, offering to take pictures and just providing an overall authentic experience. The weather was a bit rainy, yet it didn’t affect our enjoyment of the day, as we had a chance to stop for pictures, take in the scenery, as well as having time for refreshment and bathroom breaks thanks to Colin. The highlight of the trip had to be Glencoe, as the views were breathtaking. Again, I have to acknowledge and thank Colin for sharing his knowledge of the landscapes we passed, such as ‘Honeymoon Island’. My partner and I both enjoyed the trip. We love travelling and exploring nature/wildlife, and we both agreed that this trip was one of the best places/experiences we’ve had. We would both recommend Discover Scotland to anyone looking to tour the Highands, and we would definitely like to take this trip/one of your other trips in the future.
