- Fort Augustus - The journey continues to Loch Ness, passing through Fort William. The next destination is the Caledonian Canal and the Fort Augustus lock system.

A trip to remember for a lifetime - Our tour guide Callum did a fantastic job at sharing the history of the highlands. We would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to fill a day of their trip with rich history!

Good Value - The tour guide was excellent. Not a lot of time in Pitlochery. Loch Ness was ok but if you don't opt to pay for the cruise just know you'll have ample time on your hands and there isn't much to do for that extended period of time. Overall it was a convient way to view a bit of the Highlands without the strain of driving yourself : )

Spring Break in Edinburgh - Lane was an excellent driver & tour guide. He was very knowledgeable & funny.
Take a portable charger because you'll take loads of pictures.
Glencoe was so packed with other tour busses, so Lane took us down to another beautiful spot for pictures.
Try the whiskey & chocolate ice cream combo in Pitlochry, so yummy.

Not bad - Previous reviews about Spanish guide speaking English are all accurate. But what goes in the tour favor are their best efforts to keep it comfortable. Its a long drive covering lot of locations. I would recommend dropping the last stop on the itinerary, it is nothing but stretching the trip with nothing adding value
