Rabbie’s small group tours are driven by curiosity and guided by storytellers. We find the stories that go deeper and live longer in travellers' minds. On our journeys, everyone’s hungry for the little-known or just-happened, and we can go after them: no track too small, too trodden or obscure....

  • 3-Day The North Coast 500 Small-Group Tour from Inverness reviewer 1
    · October 3rd, 2024
    We had an amazing time on our three day tour of the NC 500. Our guide was James and he made the experience more than we hoped for. His knowledge of the history and the country was impressive. I really enjoyed his stories and anicdotes. Everyplace we stopped was a new experience and he had a story to tell about it which made it memorable. The accomodations were clean and comfortable. We had initially not planned on going that far into the highlands but I am glad I found this tour online. I would recommend it to anyone. We had a fabulous time!

    This tour was amazing and our guide James was excellent! I enjoyed his stories and trivia about the places we visited. He was so accomodating and flexible regarding everyone on the tour. His knowledge of the area and highland history was impressive. All the accomodation we stayed in was clean and comfortable. Overall this was a tour well worth taking.

    Loved every minute except accommodation at Thurso. Itinerary was great, Scott was marvelous ("aaye" he was... "aaye"...), organization great. Even the weather was perfect as we sampled a bit of everything! Only comment I'd make is that maybe a little less time on beaches ( or one less beach) so we could take a walk thru Dubrobin Castle.

    There is nothing more you can do to improve this trip, everything was more than perfect. The guide/driver Helen was so professional and perfect, the places taken just breathtaking, the choice of accommodation just amazing. I’ll be back with Rabbie’s - a Rabbie a day, a Rabbie for life!
