Top Inverness Day Trips - page 9

This was an amazing experience. Our driver, Dave, was awesome. Very knowledgeable and shared so much of the history and how it still influences Scotland today. Had the best donut ever in Portree at MacKenzie's Bakery. Sites and stops were fantastic. Definitely was a great tour and worth every penny.

This tour was honestly an amazing experience. I traveled with my two daughters and we had so much fun hearing about the ancient stories of the isles and seeing lots of beautiful scenery. Our driver Doreen and guide Marita were both wonderful and I would 100% recommend this tour.

Scotty is fabulous! He got to know us all when we first started off on the tour and then started giving us great facts and knowledge from the off. He was so interesting and held everyone’s attention the entire tour with his knowledge and humour! Small amounts of travel on the bus with lots of stops with plenty to see and learn about. The weather didn’t put us off as rain didn’t last for more then a few minutes, the sun and rainbows over Loch Ness were stunning! Would absolutely use you again for another tour!

Really enjoyed this trip. Beautiful scenery and the tour guide provided a lot of information about the geography and the history of the people who settled here. Can’t wait to return to see what it looks like when it is warmer and the plants have bloomed.

This is a long day, with a lot of ground covered. However, it is well paced and the Jacobite steam train ride in the middle of the day is a definite highlight and a comfortable ride. Ian was a great guide who was very knowledgable about the area and had many stories and local lore to add. He gave us plenty of time to explore various areas we visited, and adapted when one location was full and we couldn't park as planned. I highly recommend a fresh fish lunch in Mailag.

Beautiful tour of Loch Ness area, the fairy pools and castle. Our guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. He deviated a little from the itinerary due to the tour being on Sunday. Our lunch stop was at a small restaurant which our guide pre booked for us. Great choice. He also added a late stop a a small cafe on our way back from the tour. This was done so we didn't have such a long drive without a break. Very thoughtful and appreciated.

FANTASTIC!!! We truly loved this trip. First, our guide, Liall, was amazing. He was professional, informative, and fun! I know it seems like a long day but it's really not. There is plenty to see and it's a great mixture of walking, sightseeing, and driving. We had just the right amount of time in each spot. Dunrobin Castle was a nice place and the gardens are stunning. It's a great place to pick up a sandwich for take away if needed. John O'Groats was beautiful. It's where the North Sea meets the Atlantic. There is a great distillery there for a quick flight of whiskey and a sweet treat. Duncansby Stacks was probably one of my favorite stops. It was a wonderful walk along the cliffs and incredibly ocean view and breathtaking natural wonder of the stacks themselves. There is so more to this tour and I'm happy we did it. It's such great way to enjoy this northeast area of Scotland without driving ourselves. We were able to sit back and relax during the drive and really see the gorgeous landscape. Thank you Liall for making our day great! Your first aid skills were a blessing on this trip!!! :)

We took this tour with our guide Elaine who was an exceptional teacher of the history of Inverness in particular and Scotland overall. She delighted in sharing stories and accounts as she stopped at a particular point of interest. Thank you Elaine! We recommend this tour completely!
