Our guide, SimBia (can't read name, see previous photo), was very friendly and told some good jokes. Suggestions: post hours on trip (would not have booked if we had realized it was a 12 hour trip); have guide emphasize: getting back on bus on time for the continuation of trip without penalty; no talking on cell phone unless emergency (guy behind talked no less than 7 times on his cell phone which was disruptive); play music appropriate to setting (not just what guide/driver wants to listen to) and not as loud; could have had much more information from driver on trip (most of trip was done in silence or with loud jazzy music playing....there were things that could have been talked about like topography, etc. All in all, I wish we hadn't booked this trip.

The journey is like sailing through fairy land, from the books of Emil Blon te. Drizzling, lush green pastures on flowing hills, Black Sheeps, if fortunate stags, Rainbow. It was a tenderly feast of eyes & mind. Bad part, not a comfortable coach & skipped Mallaig for heavy rain as informed ( though with consent of elderly people; should not have asked at all)

Gary Mulholland as our tour guide was outstandingly funny and informative! Stunning views - really comfortable minibus - best value for money - 100% recommend!

This trip was nothing short of spectacular. Our guide, Davie, kept us entertained for 12 hours straight with his vast knowledge, quirky humour, and charmingly broad Glasgow accent. No better man to tour the highlands with in our minds! Whether you’re a Harry Potter fan or not, there is so much to soak in on this journey that pulls at your human tide. Davie gave us running commentary on the various landmarks and areas that we passed through, providing excellent insight into the important history present in each, all while operating the bus with impressive precision. Safety was never a concern. We noticed that Davie isn’t featured on the “Meet Our Driver Guides” on the website, but would love to see his profile on there! He was truly an incredible driver and a vibrant entertainer. We can’t recommend this tour enough. If you’re considering it, pay no mind to any negative reviews. It is well worth the money and then some - a small price to pay for the best day ever.

The tour was booked about a month before our visit to Scotland. We were looking forward to it, but ... Alas ... it never happened. Date for the tour: 30.08.2023 07:30. Or more precisely for me and my wife, as well as two other people who were at the meeting place at least 10 minutes earlier (07:20 hours) before the departure time (07:30 hours) this excursion remained only a dream, for which company Timberbush Tours did nothing to make it happen! The operator we contacted around 07:35 behaved extremely rudely and disrespectfully. It was explained to us that we were not at the meeting place, but there was a large group of people who had boarded the company's bus and were already traveling!!! And how come we haven't seen them!!! Reading the comments about the organizing company, I think this is a bad practice on their part. Similar situations have apparently happened to other customers as well. I remain extremely negative about the company Timberbush Tours.

This was an excellent day trip from Glasgow. I took this trip on the 25th of August. The guide, James was interesting and humorous. Just enough time in each place, though the tour does travel a lot of ground so you need to be prepared to SoE d quite a bit of time on the bus. Thus wasn’t a problem for me, as the scenery is spectacular.

DAVID_R

Was a very very very long drive through mountains past severe beautiful lakes and Mountains but honestly, after about an hour or two, you’ve seen all the mountains you need to see. Glencoe was nothing but mountains and valleys, pretty but a 12 hour ride?!. Seeing the Harry Potter train going over the Glenfiddich treassle was the high lite. Wouldn’t go again. The guide was average. Nothing overly special, sorry.

The views were amazing but the driver was awful. He was fidgety and wasn’t pleasant. But he brought us safely back and we are grateful for that. Also it was hard to understand his accent.

The photos clearly imply this is a train trip. IT IS NOT! It’s an all day ride in a cramped small bus. Very disappointing!!!!!!
