That 808 Couple - Billy was a great guide, driver and photographer! He provided excellent recommendations! We did not follow the itinerary exactly and instead went along with Billy’s suggestions. We were very happy with his recommendations! Awesome private tour!

Must book private tour of Scottish highlands - We loved our tour through the Scottish Highlands and to Isle of Skye. Our guide Roy was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. We learned so much about Scottish history and culture. We are extremely grateful for Roy’s expertise and navigating us across some tough roads. We covered so much in one day. All of the sights were majestic. What we loved about the private tour is being able to cater to our interests, for example we wanted to see highland cows and Roy found a farm for us to visit along our route. Would definitely book again next time we visit Scotland.

A perfect day exploring the Highlands and Isle of Skye - We had a wonderful day with Billy exploring the highlands and the beautiful Isle of Skye. The pace was perfect for our family- we all enjoyed the many stops we made along the way and were able to see so many beautiful places and enjoy ourselves with Billy at the wheel. He kindly customized the start of the tour for us and took us to a perfect local spot for lunch. The tour truly showed us the beauty of the Isle and allowed us to relax and enjoy the incredible landscapes. A fantastic day!

Best Ever - We were blessed to have Donald, the best guide ever!! All day long he went above and beyond what was expected of him to make sure we got to see and do everything we wanted. He was so pleasant and helpful which made our day totally stress-free. Best guided tour we have ever taken.

“A Highland Highlight: Billy’s Private Tour Was Unforgettable!” - From the rugged beauty of Loch Ness to the misty skies of the Isle of Skye, our private tour with Billy was absolutely unforgettable. He’s not just a guide—he’s a storyteller, a local expert, and a Highland legend in his own right. Billy tailored the day perfectly to our pace and interests. We got up close and personal with some very photogenic Highland cows (who were clearly used to being adored), and then explored some of the most breathtaking landscapes we’ve ever seen. His knowledge of the history and folklore brought every stop to life. From hidden waterfalls and dramatic cliffs to charming villages and sweeping views, every moment felt like a scene from a movie—except it was real, and Billy was the best director we could’ve asked for. If you’re lucky enough to book a private tour with Billy, do it. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we left with full hearts, incredible photos, and a deep appreciation for the Highlands and the people who call it home.

One of the most amazing... - One of the most amazing tours we've ever been on. Martin was an exceptional tour guide, giving us a personalized ava informative tour of Skye. He went out of his way to make it special for us. We can't recommend him more.

Viator has disappointed us! - We have spent a huge amount of money for our private one day tour. Nearly INR 120,000 (1.2 lakhs) In the morning it was very cool when we started but soon it started to get warmer. We asked Billy, our driver, to switch on the AC but he said that the AC doesn't work as he has not "charged it" (I think he was trying to say that the AC gas needed to be filled). After spending such an amount, I mentioned to Billy that we are very disappointed that the AC was not working (by the way, the car is also an old model and we did not expect this from Viator). He stopped the car and threatened to go back if I was going to complain. He said that he will not go all the way if I am going to complain and asked us to get a refund from Viator. We had not come all the way from India and be asked to go back from mid way on our private tour to the Isle of Skye...was not an option! Somehow I kept quiet not wanting to take the risk of him leaving us mid way. I am asthmatic and cannot travel in a car with windows rolled down due to the risk of dust but there was no option here as it was very hot and the Air Conditioning was not working. Obviously, this has been very stressing for us as a Family. Billy also kept telling us (at least 2-3 times) not to go to the Fairy Pools since there is a two hour difficult walk and that it's not worth it...so we decided not to go there, following his advice. It seems like we have made a big mistake by booking through Viator! Extremely disappointing!
