Have a great day in the Highlands! This was one of the highlights of our stay in Edinburgh. Nice, comfortable bus, very nice guide (thanks Willy!) And fun for everyone, even if you are not familiar with Harry Potter. Nice, various stops along the way and beautiful nature along the way.

In large part the enjoyment was due to our driver and guide, Alex. He’s knowledgeable and made the trip fun. He wanted to make sure all the guests had the best experience possible. The trip passed through very beautiful country.

Inspiring, relaxing, enjoyable at that was just Willy the driver, we all loved the tour will return with friends and happy to book again another trip with your selves to loch Ness

The aktivity gives an opportunity to see the beatiful countryside.

It was a well structured trip. Very interesting everyday.
