Fun and informative Highland tour

Chris was amazing on his storytelling and choice of songs for the occasion and the story he's talking about. He's a lot of fun and has great sense of humor. Made the experience really fun. He's well informed on Scotland history. We've learned a lot about the places We've been today and about historical events happened in the past. We'd recommend Chris to anyone who's interested in Highland daily tour.

Perfect day for getting a taste of popular landmarks and the Highlands. Our tourguide Chris was very good at telling intresting facits and stories, and jokes, along the way that nicley connected to the sites we drove past. It felt genuine and personal in a way that made the day fun and relaxing. Defenetly worth spending the day.

Our guide was very funny and friendly. He kept us entertained throughout the entire trip, sharing lots of interesting facts and stories. It was clear that he genuinely cared about us and wanted us to have the best possible experience. The organisation of the trip was excellent, everything went according to plan. Unfortunately, the only disappointment was that we didn’t get to see the train. Apart from that, everything was great and we really enjoyed the experience. We would definitely recommend this trip!
