    The castle visit and the river rapids were the highlight of the trip. Our guide Ross was informative, engaging, and friendly. It was clear that Ross’ goal was to ensure that our trip to the Highlands was unforgettable. He was successful. Overall, Ross made it possible for us to experience the beauty and enchantment of the Scottish Highlands!! Thank you Ross!!
