Stunning views and rich history. - The trip to the Scottish Highlands and Loch Ness was spectacular. The landscape is unlike anything we had experienced in our travels. Our guide Brendan, alias “Bob”, was most engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about every aspect of the tour. His amazing voice and antics were a great added bonus. This tour was a memorable experience, particularly if your fortunate enough to have Brendan as your guide.

Such a nice trip - Brandon is a really nice and fun guide, that will entertain you telling stories and singing and laughing! He thinks of everything (like, if the places that we are supposed to visit will be full of people or not) and will have other paths to go! It was a really fun and nice day!

Good way to explore the Scottish highlands - The tour is a good way to kill time if you don’t fancy rent a car driving all the way to the highlands yourself. Our driver/guide Brendan was funny and knowledgeable enough, who shared the information you’d like to know as a tourist. I won’t recommend the cruise trip as it’s nothing but spending 45 minutes on a lake without seeing anything interesting.
