Gorgeous Landscape combined with Fascinating History - We had a great day touring out to the Highlands from Edinburgh with Alex. The ride was so comfortable and he was a wealth of information about all the sites we visited, we really enjoyed hearing about the history and folklore of the area. The weather was typically Scottish, but we didn't mind and the views were incredible. Highly recommend this as a day trip through the countryside.

Fantastic scenery and loads of stories, great day! - We had a fantastic day travelling through Scotland from East to west and back again. Alex,our guide, had loads of stories about history, whisky, Scottish clans and whatever you like to talk about! Extremely social and very Scottish :). The scenery is truly beautiful and will remain a great memory for us as a family. We were ages 18-80 and all enjoyed our day. Recommended!!

Breathtakingly, life-changing, leaves you speechless. - This was an experience I will remember for the rest of my life! The tour was amazing from start to finish! The vehicle was comfortable and Ricky, our tour guide, held our safety as his first priority (second only to showing us an amazing time)! As a Canadian, you do not have views or history like this and taking in the beauty of the The Three Sisters while listing to the story of the Glenco Massacre is chilling and sends shivers down your spine. Taking in the views of these incredible mountains, makes you feel insurmountable and gives you a perspective of how small you are in the world. The waterfalls at the meet of the three waters was outstanding. A short hike away from the road and you’re in an oasis of streams, waterfalls and mountains. I was able to go into the water and the crisp air paired with the chilled water on a sunny highland day was healing to the soul. Ricky was the best guide and we felt lucky to be paired with him! He was fun, charismatic, and extremely knowledgeable! It was incredible to share in his passion for the Highlands. I genuinely cannot recommend this tour enough. If I am ever able to return to Scotland I will be doing a tour again!
