Seeing the highland cows. - We were on a private tour with 2 brothers, one sister and 2 significant others. Sara was our tour guide and she began the tour asking what We wanted to see. She was very accommodating to our needs with frequent breaks, taking photos, local color and a great lunch spot. She was a great asset to her company and I highly recommend her and Go Highlands.

Wonderful Day in and around Inverness - Cawdor Castle, with its unique architecture, fascinating history, and lovely grounds and gardens, was definitely a highlight of the tour. But I particularly enjoyed the visitors’ centre at the Culloden and then walking the actual battlefield. We were blessed with a clear, dry day and - more importantly - an excellent guide. Alistair was prompt, knowledgable, and pleasant, and set the pace of his tour based on our interests and desires. He and his partner (George) are both the very best option to choose when touring this hauntingly beautiful area.

Love Inverness/Invergordon - We are a family of 5 and took this tour on Sept. 13, 2023. Our tour guide/driver (I believe his name is Jim, sorry if I'm wrong, we did lots of tours during our British Isle cruise). He was a great guide/driver; very knowledgeable, very entertaining, very kind, very thoughtful, very smart, and so much more. My 3 young adults son love listening to his stories and information of many things about the place and beyond.
We highly recommend this tour. Thank you!

Amy was our tour guide and she was great-- on the drive she shared so much information with us about Scotlands history, introduced us to Scottish music- "Donald Where's Your Trousers was our fave--, and thoroughly explained each and every place we visited. I particularly enjoyed her walking us around Culloden battlefield and sharing her knowledge with us-- I learned so much more than I expected. Highly recommend this tour!

Fun day at historical sites - This was an amazing day full of interesting facts and stunning sites. Douglas was fun and knowledgeable. We were the only 2 people on the tour and he gave us extra time to enjoy ourselves and took us to a few sites off the route. Maybe my favorite day in Scotland

Great guide and great tour. Couldn’t ask for more! - George was the best! We got detoured on our cruise and ended up choosing this as a private tour at our stop here. It was a great day! George was an excellent guide with tons of knowledge. Would definitely recommend and do this again! Thank you for making this one of our most memorable days of our cruise!
