    Fantastic Highlands day trip!!!
    Amazing day, amazing guide (Brian), amazing scenery!!
    Can highly recommend this tour, its a long day, but it doesn't feel like it, plenty of photo stops to break the journey and incredible views of the Highlands all the way!
    Brian was an incredible guide, full of energy and enthusiasm with loads of facts, stories and good music! He really made the day for me.
    I had this company recommended to me by a friend, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone!

    Owen is the greatest!
    Owen is likely the greatest guide there is. Extremely knowledgeable on Scottish history. Every story, every history lesson, every terrible joke, was told with enthusiasm and excitement as if it was the first time he was telling them. The tour would have been good without him. But it was unforgettable and exceptional with him. Thank you Owen!

    Fantastic adventure
    I went on the 3 day tour with Jim as our guide, I absolutely loved this trip! Jim's knowledge of Scotland was second to none. He knew the best places to visit, the best times to go, and the best activities to participate in. He was always willing to answer any questions we had and gave us plenty of fascinating insights into the local culture and history. I was impressed with all the places we visited, especially the Quiraing which provided breathtaking views on the Isle of Skye.

    Highly informative and engaging tour
    This tour was perfect for us. Visited many historic sites, got to hear all the background about them and exciting historical events that happened in Edinburgh. Also saw many special places that we would never have found on our own. In terms of time, quite a long tour, but absolutely worth it! The guide was highly informative and very engaging.

    Amazing tour with Iain
    Iain was our tour guide and he was absolutely AMAZING!!! He made everything fun and kept us entertained with his jokes. The trip was stunning and having a fantastic tour guide like Iain made it even better. I could not recommend this trip more, 11/10 experience.

    Highlight of our trip
    Highlight of our trip! Keith was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable. The mountain views were unforgettable. The village of Fort Augustus was quaint. Lunch at the Lock Inn was a nice stop. Highly recommend Heart of Scotland tours the smaller tour size made it more personable and we were able to fit in and make stops the larger tours couldn't.

    Wonderful way to start our trip!
    We did this tour on the first day of our trip. It was a wonderful way to familiarise ourselves with Edinburgh, both in terms of the geography of the city as well as identifying places to eat for the rest of our visit. Keith is an excellent guide- not only is he well informed, but he is warm and engaging. We also enjoyed having a chance to chat with the other family on our tour.

    A HIGH-5 for Skye!....
    The 3 plus hours our group spent walking through parts of Edinburgh where only 'those- in-the-know' go was not only edifying food-wise but was also filled to the brim with nonstop local knowledge from our backwards-walking encyclopedia named Skye.He was a compendium of knowledge spiced with goodly humour.Don't miss this tour!

    A Very Enjoyable Day
    A great day. The weather was kind and the tour ran smoothly. Peter was an informative guide, kept the tour interesting and had a good sense of humour. He also drove the coach. The itinerary was perfect for one day and there was plenty of time to enjoy the places visited without any pressure . Good lunch as well. All in all a fine day. Highly recommended.

    Beautiful leisurely trip.
    Our guide was Kelly and she was awesome though she had a lot of cheesy jokes😄 we had such a beautiful day and Kelly was so informative and helpful. St. Andrews is amazingly beautiful and we visited the cathedral as well. The fishing villages we visited were so clean, friendly and interesting. An excellent trip and well worth your time.
