Glen Affric is often called the finest glen in Scotland, and this is a full day in it rather than a look at it. A nine-hour private day from Inverness taking in Dog Falls, the water at Affric before the wind gets up, and Plodda Falls on the way home, through the largest fragment of ancient Caledonian pinewood left in the country. The pace is yours - if the light is right we stay until it is not. One group per day, in a fully electric car that makes no noise at a viewpoint.

Explore the landscapes of Skye on a private tour that takes you to the Fairy Pools and the historic Talisker Distillery. A twelve-hour day starting from Inverness, with time to walk into the Fairy Pools under the Black Cuillin and sample a dram at Talisker, and a different road home through Lochcarron and Achnasheen rather than the way you came. One group per day, so the pace is yours and nothing is rushed. Travel in a fully electric car - quiet at every viewpoint and no exhaust where you stop.

The train everyone photographs, from the places the photographs are taken. A private day from Inverness to Glenfinnan, Arisaig and Mallaig, built around the Jacobite timetable so you are on the hillside before the good ground goes. One sighting at the viaduct is promised and two or three are likely, because the train stops and we do not. This is a photography day rather than a train ride - no ticket needed, and no queue for one. Loch Shiel from the monument, the silver sands at Camusdarach, and the harbour at Mallaig where the road west runs out. One group per day, in a fully electric car.

See the best of Glasgow in four hours without buses, taxis or walking between sights. A chauffeur collects you from your city-centre hotel in a private Mercedes V-Class, just for your group of up to 6, and drives you to Glasgow Cathedral and the Necropolis, George Square and the City Chambers, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, the University of Glasgow and the West End, and the Riverside Museum on the Clyde. At each stop your chauffeur drops you at the door, waits while you explore, and has the car ready when you are. Stay longer where you like and skip what doesn't interest you. Every stop on the route is free to enter, so the price you see is the price you pay. You get a live tracking link before pickup so you know exactly where your car is.

The A82 from Glasgow to Glencoe is one of Scotland's great drives, and with a private chauffeur you watch the scenery while someone else drives. Your chauffeur collects you from your Glasgow hotel in a private Mercedes V-Class, just for your group of up to 6, and follows Loch Lomond north, climbs through Crianlarich and Tyndrum, crosses the wide open Rannoch Moor and drops into Glencoe between the Three Sisters. Stop where you like for photos, coffee and lunch in Glencoe village, then head back south at your own pace. It's a long day, about 190 miles round trip, which is exactly why a private car makes sense: no coach timetable, no strangers, and the car is waiting whenever you're ready. Fuel, parking and waiting time are included, and you get a live tracking link before pickup. Your chauffeur is a professional driver rather than a tour guide, so the day runs at your pace. Bring a warm, waterproof layer: Highland weather changes quickly.
