Top Glasgow Bus Tours - page 8

First of all, the best part of the trip was our driver Jeff from Glasgow. He had a wealth of knowledge not just about our tour. He was great and he even made a quick stop so I could meet a Highland Cow. The tour itself was a very long day but was so worth it. Driving through the Highlands was breathtaking with many stops along the way for photos. Loch Ness was a charming little place and we enjoyed our boat ride although we never met the illustrious Nessie. The drive back was just as good as the ride there!

We haven’t even ended our vacation to Scotland yet but I wanted to leave this review as soon as possible- it was awesome! Our guide, Martin, was super-knowledgeable, patient and kind. He took us to so many interesting spots and provided detailed commentary for each experience. Our stay in the Isle of Skye was unbeatable (Creagory Skye). Our host was lovely, the B&B was impeccable and the breakfast was top-notch. I absolutely recommend this tour!

What a lovely day spent touring the highlands with Matt. He was informative and entertaining., ready to answer any questions about Scotland that we had. We were able to spend ample time at each location and the small group atmosphere was ideal. Would highly recommend!

Our guide, Steven did a nice job. He was truly a local and shared his knowledge. He had some good stories and interesting facts. Except for the rain, it was a good day. It would be great if all guides used audio devices. It becomes much easier to get the info. Our guide in Belfast used audio devices and it made the tour even better.

We had an amazing experience. Although we couldn’t reach our final destination (Loch Ness) because of a traffic collision- we had a wonderful time. Our guide Blair was unbelievable! He improvised and we explored a different route. He kept very clam under pressure due to the accident and made the whole experience fun. We could thank Blair enough. A credit to the company.

This was a great tour for any Outlander fan. Our guide, Young Steven, was awesome and informative. Seeing the filming locations was really fun. Unfortunately, Midhope Castle (Lallybroch) is a very missed opportunity. The owners could make it really amazing, but choose not to. It's still cool to see.

The tour was absolutely fantastic. Our guide was very informative, professional, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. We visited all the main tourist attractions, and honestly, the experience exceeded my expectations. There were 15 people on the tour(capacity for 16), and the bus had air conditioning, which made the journey comfortable. If you are prone to travel sickness, I would recommend taking an anti-sickness tablet beforehand — my husband did, and he was completely fine throughout the trip. The café stops did not have a huge food selection, but for me, the focus was more on the attractions and scenery than the food itself. One thing I would strongly recommend is bringing a coat, jacket, or jumper, even if you usually do not get cold like me. Since you are quite high above sea level, it can get very cold and windy. Something I really wanted to know before the tour was whether there would be toilets available during the journey — and yes, there were. The guide clearly informed us about toilet stops throughout the day, which I really appreciated. The meeting point is at the bus station between platforms 22–32. I personally struggled to find it at first and had to call the company, but they answered immediately and directed me straight away. To be fair, nobody else seemed to have trouble finding it, so it might just be me. We left at 07:15hrs and returned at 18:30hrs. Leaving early in the morning made a huge difference. We got the best photos with far fewer people around and avoided a lot of traffic. Finally, a special mention to Fergio, our driver — he was brilliant!

Great day trip from Edinburgh. Scott met us at the rail station and led us through the city in an informative and relaxed tour. He was great at showing us historical and cultural ( murals were beautiful ) points of interest. He also shared spots to get a great meal, which we did take his advice for a delicious lunch at an Italian restaurant.
