The tour was great. We left Edinburgh on time and arrived back at the time promised. Steven B was a lovely guide, explaining many stories about Scotland and the places we visited, and he was super relaxed and easy-going. We really enjoyed it, although the weather could have been better and some stops could have been longer, especially in Glencoe.

No bathrooms on buses.

Do NOT go on this companies’ tours if you have any urgency issues. They do NOT have bathrooms on their buses. At one point they expected us to go 2 3/4 hours without a break. Tour director was fun but got really boisterous near the end of tour. Drugs? Scenery was lovely.

The Scotland Experience That Made My Trip 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The best Scotland experience ever! This tour honestly made my entire trip. A huge thank you to Steven B—he was absolutely amazing! He knew so much history, and I loved learning about Scotland thanks to him. We had plenty of time to stop and take the prettiest pictures, saw the Highland cows, experienced the breathtaking views of Glencoe and Loch Ness, and even did a boat tour (extra fee). We also saw the beautiful castle on Loch Ness. The bus ride went by so quickly because it was super comfortable. I would 100% rebook this experience and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Scotland!
