- EMEvelyn· September 26th, 2024I can't thank our tour guide and driver enough for being so wonderful and making my life long trip so lovely.

Thank you for all the rainbows!Show moreTrip date: August 2024
- NMNaomi· August 20th, 2024Wow! What a tour! Richard (tour leader) and Abby (driver) are possibly the the two most awesome Scot’s in the world! Thorough knowledge and willingness to find information was an absolute measure of Richard’s skill and experience as a guide! He was perfect as a guide, showing humour, kindness and preparedness to go above and beyond our expectations! Abby was the most confident and courteous driver I have ever experienced. Calm when dealing with touristShow moreTrip date: August 2024
- Robert· May 31st, 2024Itinerary is good, execution not as good. Hotels should have been better and too much time spent driving around, not enough seeing sites.Trip date: April 2024
- DWDawn· October 23rd, 2023This was our first overseas trip and we could not have asked for a better experience! The tour guide, Rob Carr, was excellent - so knowledgeable, humorous and so caring about all of our group. He added so much with his stories and when we had bad weather, he was adept at changing things on the fly and taking us to see the sights off the beaten path. The tour featured a great mix of Scottish history, beautiful scenery and good fellowship between the other folks on the trip.Show moreTrip date: October 2023
- JRJake· September 25th, 2023Rob Carr was an entertaining and knowledgeable guide. He informed us and answered questions for us. He even looked up things he was unsure of and told us what he found later. He was personable and took us on side trips when he knew of something that was nearby that we would like. He brought in a kilted speaker about Culloden and a bagpiper at supper to entertain us. Loved the entire tour!Show moreTrip date: August 2023
- lisashlansky· August 15th, 2023Scotland is such a beautiful and idyllic country. BackRoads Tours gave me a chance to see it in a very relaxing and authentic way. The guide, and the driver were absolutely fabulous at all times I would recommend back road tours highly!Trip date: August 2023
- SFSusanne· May 27th, 2023Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishA great tour, best guide Stephen with a lot of knowledge and a wonderful sense of humor, bus comfortable, driver top, hotels different but all with charm, great 10 days in ScotlandShow moreTrip date: May 2023
- Valbona· September 19th, 2022The tour guide, Ed, and the driver, Abby, were amazing hosts to all of us. They did a great job helping us through the hotel changes as well as walking us through the history of each location we visited. The choice of hotel in Tobermory could have been a bit better, while they had beautiful views we could not take a shower in the room as the shower head was not connected to the water. Also, the beds were overused and we could feel the springs in our backs. All other locations were perfect. Thank you.Show moreTrip date: September 2022
- SSandy· September 4th, 2022Fabulous tour of Scotland. 16 people in a small very comfortable smaller bus lead by Tom, a man who is a storyteller of all things Scotland. Our days were balanced with scenic backroad driving with tourist stops, camera stops, comfort stops and coffee/ tea stops. Our day in Inverness included a stop to drop off laundry and a walking tour of the town with the afternoon to wander - a perfect place to do your own thing. My favorite days were in the islands Skye, Mull, Iona, smelling the sea air and taking ferries to new discoveries.Show moreTrip date: August 2022
