The whole trip was absolutely fantastic. Pickup was exactly on time and our driver, Bruce M, was excellent. He was punctual, courteous and extremely knowledgeable. While we lunched in Portree he even washed the bus's windows. We happened to have a beautiful day for our trip and the views were stunning. Particular highlights were the views over the sea lochs, Eilean Donan and Portree but there was much more besides that. I thought the trip represented great value for money and I'd thoroughly recommend to anyone.

Fantastic Tour with excellent driver Bruce. Bruce is a very good guide who entertaint the passengers with own stories and typical detais of Island.

Alec was an excellent driver (several one-lane roads!) and a wonderful tour guide. There were several stops on this tour, and the Isle of Skye lived up to it’s reputation - simply stunning.

Excellent guide called Kev from Rabbies. Very knowledgeable, great driver, food sense of humor, even though it rained all day we saw some fantastic sights and thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

James (the Scorpio) is amazing - he’s so informative, knows a lot about the history and make sure everyone is having a great time. He is speculator. I’ve visited over 40 countries and he’s by far one the best.

Brilliant tour. 11.5 hours. Not for people with long legs! We hit the jackpot twice. First, despite morning mist, by the time we hit the Skye bridge it was brilliant sunshine. The views of the island and of the mainland looking back later were to die for. Our guide was excellent. A great sense of humour, lots of stories and a selection of local music to cheer us home. I thought we would be exhausted, but the only person who looked wrecked was the driver. The rest were so interested that the hours flew by. I recommend trying Cullen Skink in the hotel on the corner of the square in Lochtree for lunch. Worth every penny. Don’t miss it.

This tour and its stops were wonderful! We had plenty of beautiful stops for photos and visiting, timing was great and had plenty of potty stops! Colin was amazing! He was so funny and informative, making the drive even better!

Linda_H

Enjoyed hearing the history as well as the sights. It was super windy and rainy so we didn’t see quite as much as we would have liked but the waterfalls were spectacular with all that rain. I would definitely do this tour again.

Scott_S

So many beautiful stops on the tour from Castles to amazing scenery. Thoroughly enjoyed learning the history of the Highlands and the stunning sites of Isle of Skye.
