Awesome 13-hour day with unforgettable laughter/hot accent Terri and driver Chris AKA "Robbie." They made our long day trip flyby with plenty of perfectly spaced comfort stops/breaks between our target destinations. All the stops were very well planned out with plenty of time to explore and take beautiful pictures. Terri was loads of fun, answered any questions, along with giving us lots of historical information and travel tips. This Highlands/Lochness tour could not have been any better, including the weather in mid-June.

Good experience guide and driver very well informed and provided a lot of insight and details to the tour. Weather was a bit dull. But this not the fault of the tour . Wished we had a bit more time to visit sites....but again there is only so much one can do as the day was very short in Dec.

Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience and found your guide and driver to be knowledgeable and informative throughout the tour.We appreciate your understanding regarding the winter weather and the shorter daylight hours in December. While this can limit the time spent at each stop, we’re glad you were still able to enjoy the Scottish Highlands, Loch Ness, and Glencoe. We hope you’ll have the opportunity to visit us again in a different season to experience even more of these beautiful locations.Best wishes,EleonoraHighland Experience Tours

A tour with Steven B We had an amazing day touring with Steven B- I really appreciated the history lessons and the songs he shared, I actually looked them all up later because I'd love to learn more. We had time to see everything we wanted to and the bus was comfy enough to sleep a few times on the longer portions. I think this tour really added a lot of depth to a country we visited, rather than just looking at tourist shops and restaurants. Thank you for putting this together and teaching us so much!

Highlands tour Nice tour for those who are in Edinburgh and also want to admire the landscapes outside the city, Alex our guide was nice and prepared the notions also historical were very interesting although due to a strong Scottish accent I missed something, maybe I would have avoided the visit to the coo's that was held in the dark since we were back and in a farm

Hi Nikola, Thank you for your kind 5* review! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed getting out of Edinburgh to see the surrounding landscapes, and that Alex’s knowledge and friendliness added to the experience.I appreciate your feedback about the Highland cows. During the winter months, daylight is limited, so we have to prioritise the main scenic viewpoints during the day. The cow stop is scheduled later as it’s well lit, but I understand it’s not the same as visiting in full daylight. Your comments are very helpful, and we’ll continue to review the itinerary with this in mind.We hope to welcome you on another adventure in the future!Kind regards,CameronHighland Experience Tours

We took the Highlands tour on 9 December. From start to finish the trip was flawless. Booking was so simple and the ease of having our tickets in our Apple wallet is great. Check in was quick and a breeze.I can’t do justice in describing the scenery and sheer beauty of Scotland and The Highlands. Saving the best for last, Aaron our driver/guide was AMAZING! His blend of history, humor and music was a highlight of the tour, we feel very fortunate to have had someone as professional and passionate about Scotland as Aaron. We are already planning a return trip to this beautiful country and a Highlands Experience Tour will definitely be in our plans, and if we’re lucky will be able to share it with Aaron again.

The Deep Heart of Highlands .We had an amazing trip to Loch Ness with Steven from Inverness. He was incredibly friendly and shared so many fascinating stories about Scotland that really brought the landscape to life. The tour was perfectly planned, and every stop felt meaningful. Steven explained the history and sights wonderfully , making the whole experience both fun and informative. We made unforgettable memories on this trip and would absolutely recommend Steven for any future adventures around Scotland !

Had a great time with Terry & Graham - amazing story tellers, the right amount of humour, kept us on track and on time (kudos to Graham and his driving skills). We saw so many amazing things and learned a ton!! I would happily book a tour with them again if I'm ever back in Edinburgh.

Best vacation ever taken My family (8 adults) had a marvelous time (11/30/25) with Anthony, the best tour guide (and totally swoon worthy ❤️). It was a long bus ride, but stops were planned nicely and Anthony managed to keep ahead of the crowds. The whole trip was very special being with family and wish we could’ve stayed much longer.

Hi there,This is a lovely review and we're glad to hear you had a great time in Scotland! However, we believe you might have addressed this to the wrong tour company (we do not have a guide called Anthony). Just wanted to let you know so it reaches the right place :)Best wishes,EleonoraHighland Experience Tours

I had an amazing tour with Highland Experience Tours! The booking process was smooth and my trip was true to the description with plenty of time to explore each stop. Jamie was my guide and he went above and beyond! He was professional, but also warm and friendly. I felt like I was with a friend instead of a stranger. He has a gift for storytelling and I could listen to his voice for the rest of my life and never get bored. He provided the perfect combination of history, perfectly timed music, and jokes. This was my first tour, and I can’t imagine I’ll ever get a better tour guide than Jamie. I’ll rebook with Highland Experience when I come back to Scotland!
