Scotland Shore Excursions

Fantastic tour with an incredible guide! Johnny, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing! He knew so many fascinating stories about every place we visited, from local folklore and famous filming locations to where well-known people had lived. He was incredibly warm and friendly and had great recommendations for food and shops at every stop. He even timed our visits perfectly to avoid the crowds!

I can't recommend this tour enough! Johnny made us feel so welcome and really made the experience special. He definitely deserves a raise!

Stuart was an outstanding tour guide. He gave detailed answers to lots of questions about the environment, history, and languages of Scotland. I really enjoyed learning all about Scotland and seeing beautiful sights with him on the west Highlands tour.

Excellent experience Very good experience with friendly guide.

Absolutely brilliant day, it was the highlight of my wee solo trip, the Scottish Highlands are stunning, an Kyle really made the experience special.From putting together a Scottish playlist for the journey to sharing loads of interesting Scottish history, he made the whole trip feel that bit more memorable. He also pointed out the mountains and lochs at our stops and recommended local places to eat and drink, which was a really nice touch and made it feel like we were getting a genuine taste of Scotland rather than just ticking off tourist spots.You could tell Kyle genuinely enjoyed what he does, and that made a real difference to the day. The scenery was incredible, the trip was well organised, and the atmosphere throughout was great.A massive thank you to Kyle and the team for such a fantastic experience. I'd highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Scotland!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Big Al was: safe, comfortable, informative, entertaining and witty. A very enjoyable day touring the Highlands out of Glasgow!

We did a small group tour of Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands Tour from Edinburgh. It was a full day trip that seemed to fly by. Our guide, Douglas, was excellent and gave us the highlights of the areas history and overall Scottish history.You will get to see the hairy coos!You will not be disappointed by this trip!

St Andrews and Falkland in Sep 2026 Everything went perfectly—no logistical or other issues. We heard fascinating stories from our wonderful guide, Sandy.
He infused a touch of his own personality into every story about Scotland.
Thank you, Sandy!

I usually don’t write reviews, but Discover Scotland genuinely deserves one!My mum and I had a wonderful time exploring Scotland with Stuart, who was both our driver and travel guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, flexible and incredibly accommodating, making the whole trip enjoyable and stress-free.Thanks to their mini coaches, we could explore remote and beautiful places like the Fairy Pools without needing to drive ourselves. Stuart made sure we had a memorable experience, sharing interesting insights along the way and always making us feel comfortable and looked after.It was such a special experience travelling around Scotland with my mum, and we came away with beautiful memories. A big thank you to Stuart and the Discover Scotland team — I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore the real beauty of Scotland, especially those who don’t drive!

Highlands castles and lochs tour from Edinburghwas a very good day. Brian is an exceptional tour guide. Ask for him!

Visited Kilmartin in the lower Scottish Highlands September 2026 with Harry as our guide. My sister and I and three others enjoyed a beautiful day starting in Glasgow. We left on time, stopping at a Loch, then proceeding to Kilmartin with Harry providing commentary and leaving us to relax and enjoy the scenery at appropriate intervals.I was really happy with my choice to visit Kilmartin and grateful Discover Scotland offers it as a one day tour since other tour companies only go to Kilmartin as part of a multi day tour which we not have been able to do because of time limitations.Harry played a lot of great songs by Scottish artists on our return trip back to Glasgow. I liked the songs so much I noted several so I could add them to my music library when I returned home.I liked the small group, Harry was a great guide, loved our tour and would 100% recommend Discover Scotland, Harry and visiting Kilmartin.

We, two independent persons, hade a marvellous time with Ciaran to Kilmartin Glen on Oct 5. It is such a lovely tour and it saddens me to know few people book it. So, go to Kilmartin and discover more of the true Highlands! I love the standind stones, castle, Dunadd (thank you, Ciaran, for helping me on the very muddy and slippery path!) and rock carvings. It was a very rainy day so mud pit everywherw, but Ciaran did his best. In Lochgilphead I found the most charming café run by two elderly ladies that makes me want to return. Inveraray was as charming as always and I had a great cuppa and cake there.
