Catherine· September 30th, 2024Stephen B was our tour guide and he was excellent. The only thing that might have been better was I would have liked to hear more of his stories and anecdotes as he was very entertaining.
Highland Experience Tours commented on this reviewHi Catherine, Thank you very much for your kind review! I'm delighted to hear that you had a great time on tour with Stephen B, and that his stories and knowledge kept you entertained. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to him! We look forward... Show moreTrip date: September 2024- ASAouabed· August 15th, 2024Hugh is a guide I will always remember of. He is very professional and passionate about Scotland and loves sharing with people the marvels of the region. He genuinely cares about the people and is perfect in the organisation (some may say no surprise to adjust to any circumstance for a military man). Our group was also very proud and honored when he was playing the bagpipe. That was very moving and I feel really grateful to have visited Scotland in such a heartwarming tour.Show moreHighland Experience Tours commented on this reviewHello, Thank you so much for your great review!

- MBMary· August 6th, 2024The guide Paul S . Was great the best part of the Jacobite trip was videoing it going over the viaduct. The train ride itself was very disappointing, There was nothing special about it, it should at least been themed to excite the passengers but nothing said this is Jacobite. I will not recommend this to anyone. The tour group and guide were awesome but I give the ride a 2.Show moreHighland Experience Tours commented on this reviewHi Mary, Thank you so much for your review!

- Kirsten· June 10th, 2024The tour was a great way to see a bit of Scotland without the stress of driving it ourselves. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the points of interest and kept us learning the whole time. He introduced us to some local musicians we would never have found on our own and we listened to them as we drove through the Highlands. I would suggest dropping the tourists in a town that has a bit more going on than Fort Augustus, but other than that, it was a good tour.Show moreHighland Experience Tours commented on this reviewHello Kirsten, Thank you for taking the time to leave this positive, detailed review. We are delighted that you had such an interesting time exploring Scotland. Our tour guides love to share their unique knowledge about Scottish art and culture and we... Show moreTrip date: June 2024
- SOSusan· September 1st, 2023Our tour guide driver John was excellent. The sites were excellent, the only issue was finding somewhere to eat in St Augustus after 9pm.
