Amazing trip

RuthBarreto, Jun 2025
Excellent choice and experience. Highly recommend. Affordable. Tour guides with the right attitude .

Great tour of many excellent places

Robert_H, Sep 2024
Great tour, saw many beautiful places. Tour leader Amanda was excellent. We did now see Nessy, but Loch Ness was beautiful.

Maybe I will take only private tours

Priya_S, Jul 2024
Actually my son got sick and had to get back to london after cambridge . I also did not expect to be tied up with some other team and the bus was not that comfortable too. Never had a flexibility of going to the hotel in between . So the money spent was a waste as I did not take the service for more than two days .

Awesome trip..

nj_J, May 2024

Guide nul, hôtels souvent moyens. Tour et visites non optimisées

Voyageur_u, Sep 2023
Voyage très complet mais pas du tout optimisé. Beaucoup trop de route et de déplacements inutiles parce que les hôtels étaient mal placés . Du coup pas assez de temps consacré aux visites . La journée dans lles highlands n’a pas été interessante car trop de temps passé sur la route et trop peu en visites . Il aurait fallu la faire sur 2 jours en dormant la bas, et en partant d’Édimbourg et non de Glasgow . Nous avons passé 3 nuits à Glasgow ce qui n’était avbsolument pas central pour nos visites . De surcroît notre guide était nul : explications et informations réduites à leur minimum . Impossible de poser des questions qui ne faisaient pas partie de sa préparation la qualité du tour dépendant à 50 % de la qualité du guide, vous pouvez en déduire notre niveau de satisfaction
