Edinburgh Castle Tour - Not to be missed!

Our tour guide Richard was excellent! He did a fantastic job highlighting the history behind the castle and thoroughly explained the different area of the castle. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is very knowledgeable. ( PS Our tour included an entrance ticket to the castle). I highly recommend booking this tour!

Long day but definitely a trip highlight! So many beautiful sites to see along the way and our driver Anthony had so many interesting facts and stories to share. It was perfectly broken up with a decent amount of stops, and Anthony’s jokes helped make the travel a bit quicker. Thanks so much for a wonderful day 😊

Great glimpse of Skye and a very pleasant day

Very complete tour with great sights. Alan was a great guide! He shared his knowledge about Skye and Scotland with us for almost the whole tour, put scottish music from different styles, and stopped as much as possible so we could get good views and photographs.

Historical Edinburgh Castle with Intriguing History

This is a great tour when the historical narrative is included. Koffe was exceptional at framing the history with the experience. He was the best narrator for a tour I have taken. I felt like I received 1,000 years of history in 90 minutes in a well-spoken, clear and exciting story. I would highly recommend this tour and an excellent tour guide like Koffe.

Underground Vaults Walking Tour in Edinburgh Old Town

Mike_C, Sep 2026

Spooky, fun and educational.

This tour was excellent. After a couple of days of sightseeing on my own in Edinburgh, this group tour was a welcome change of pace. It was interesting to learn about the city and its dark history. Our guide was cool and knowledgeable, and the group seemed to enjoy the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a good time.

Loch Ness, Scottish Highlands, Glencoe and Pitlochry Tour

Kelsy_A, Sep 2026

Lots of driving, but breathtaking landscapes we wouldn't have otherwise seen, all narrated by a delightful guide

I booked the Loch Ness tour for myself, my partner, and four of my family members, all adults - we didn't realize just how much of it was going to be driving when we initially booked it, but the entire country of Scotland is absolutely gorgeous, so if you enjoy seeing breathtaking landscapes, this is definitely a wonderful option. With that being said, if you have issues sitting for extended periods of time, traveling up to Loch Ness may not be the best option for you. Our tour guide, Brian Smith, was an absolute delight - he shared hilarious personal stories as well as historical facts about Scotland, and you could immediately tell he genuinely takes pride in his country as well as being Scottish. There was a brief stop to meet three Highland Coos (definitely a personal highlight for all of us), a more-than-reasonable amount of bathroom breaks along the way, and we opted to do the Loch Ness boat ride when we arrived at our destination. Unfortunately, the weather didn't quite cooperate - it was fairly chilly and ultimately rained the majority of the time, but that was obviously outside of anyone's control, and we were still able to see some truly stunning views of the Loch. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys seeing landscapes and is ok with a fair amount of driving.

Edinburgh: Isle of Skye, Highlands and Loch Ness 3-Day Tour

The Highlands of Scotland

If booking the accommodation included option make sure you get where you are staying early and make a reservation for dinner as I wasnt informed and couldnt get in for dinner until a couple of travellers invited me to eat with them. Be sure to have good walking shies and a waterproof jacket in the cooler months. It was a wonderful experience and our Aussie driver Mark had lots of faerie tales as well as history to keep us entertained and a fun music playlist too. There are some amazing views and wonderful cozy shops to make everyone happy

Excellent and very informative tour

Very informative tour conducted by Marc. He was extremely passionate about the history of the town and the whole country, told us about many unknown and interesting facts about Edinburgh, the Castle and other places around town. He has a great knowledge of his stuff and he delivers it with a nice sense of humor. The tour is not too long, not too short and will give you a good feel of the city - strongly recommend! Thanks Marc!

Fun day with Mari! Lots of great scenery. The bus is comfortable. Mari was a very good driver on the winding roads and had lots of good stories. The bus had Scottish music playing too, both traditional and modern. Expect rain at least once. Bathroom breaks were nicely timed out. If you get carsick, make sure to arrive 30min early and nab a front seat. Don't expect to spend tons of time at any one location since so much if the time is spent driving or doing quick stops at viewpoints, bathrooms, or other points of interest.

Edinburgh: Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Fort William

Travis_C, Sep 2026

Great trip with Neil

Neil was a great driver and guide, offering Scottish history, fun pop culture facts (we pass many filming locations), and a curated music playlist. It’s a long day but he kept us on schedule without rushing us, and it goes by fairly quickly thanks to Neil’s stories, several stops, and incredible views. He had great recommendations for each stop as well, including a perfect viewing point for the train at the viaduct. Recommended for anyone visiting Edinburgh who isn’t renting a car.

Loch Ness & Highlands Small-Group Tour from Edinburgh with Cruise

pgzszgf45r, Sep 2026

Beautiful tour of the highlands and Loch Ness.

Duncan was a great driver and guide. Be prepared for about eight of the twelve hours being seated and underway in the 16 seat van.. The seats are comfortable, but it’s a long day. Stops for food and/or bathroom are sufficient. You will have time to get baked goods or snacks at a few stops, or it acceptable to bring food with you. The highlands and Loch Ness were beautiful the day of our trip. Duncan, being native to the area, expertly narrated the trip and described points of interest with enthusiasm and good humor. Worthwhile tour for us.

The World Famous Underground Ghost Tour

Lisa_Z, Sep 2026

Good fun and lil spooky

Enjoyed the underground ghost tour. Felt safe being escorted around at night and it’s really close to the Royal Mile. Major Weir was a great guide with some good stories. The tombs were really interesting, and I liked finishing near Greyfriars Bobby after the graveyard, got to see the Bobby statue without all the crowds during the day. Plenty of places nearby for a drink afterwards too. Definitely worth doing at least once.
