This is the way to tour!

Samantha_C, Oct 2025

Cannot recommend highly enough. From the comfortable van to the gorgeous basket of snacks and trinkets this is a classy ride from start to finish. Ross was knowledgeable, professional and personable. Thoroughly enjoyed his commentary and company. Nothing was to much trouble, very happy to accommodate any requests. Will use this company again!

A Must See Experience of StIrling and the Trossachs with Stuart

Cindy_B, Sep 2023

This tour was fantastic. Stuart our guide has a degree in history and was the perfect host for this tour. The tour was 10 hours long and was tailored to what we wanted to see and do. Stuart’s knowledge and commentary provided extra insight into the Scottish history of the Kelpies, StIrling Castle and many other stops. What a wonderful, memorable day we had, My husband and I are talking about already coming back for an Isle of Skye tour in the very near future.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Thanks for your review.. We're delighted you had a fantastic day.

Mini Highland exposure

David_M, May 2023

Noel was a great guide. As a native of the area he was able to tailor our tour to our interests. We certainly hit the highlights of Stirning Castle and the William Wallace memorial which were historically fascinating as well as currently entertaining. The side trips to the Lochs and Scotlands only Lake situated high in the rock encircled mountains were a beautiful relaxing addition. And nibbling on homemade tablet (fudge) was a real treat. A wonderful dinner suggestion capped off a fantastic day. Noel does not disappoint.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thanks so much for the review. It was a pleasure to meet you and your wife and Nephew. I hope the rest of your trip of a lifetime was enjoyable. I trust the Ice cream in St Andrews didn't disappoint!
