September 2023 – Isles of Mull, Iona & Skye 6 Day Island Hopping Tour from Edinburgh
We are slowly getting back to our home routines after a wonderful two weeks in Scotland, featuring our Discover Scotland tour with Gary and Jerry. Nothing but the best compliments for each of them. It was so interesting to see how each welcomed and supported our “United Nations” of passengers. We were especially grateful that both driver guides were comfortable in working with my husband, who is blind. Each easily tuned into providing descriptive details as well as just the right amount of gentle assistance, if needed. Gary was especially good at calling him by name so that he would know that he was speaking to him. He was also so supportive with our decision to remain on the boat during the Staffa trip, since we thought that the uneven surfaces might be too great a challenge. It was lovely to circle the island, enjoying our lunch, and visiting with a few other careful passengers. We could not have asked for better weather—you have a beautiful country and we have many happy memories—and pictures—to treasure. Fran and Joe
September 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I had a great time on my tour! The tour guide, Fran, was friendly and knowledgeable. I felt included even though I was traveling alone. The Jacobite Express train ride was breathtaking! The scenery was amazing. We made a number of stops throughout the day, which was great. We had time to explore the villages, take photos, and grab a snack. Overall, I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this trip! So.
September 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had Garry as our tour guide and we LOVED him! He was engaging, had great banter, lots of amazing facts about where we were and what we were seeing as we drove past it. Stopped for photo opportunities and also had flags we could use. He was just all around lovely. The bus was clean and tidy, the windows were nice and clear so we could take photos through the window. The bus mascots were a lovely touch and garrokey on the way home was a wonderful way to the end the bus trip. There were no boring bits. My friend and I had booked a few tours with different companies but yours was the best and I’ll definitely be booking all my tours through you in the future. I’ll be back next year and I’ll be bringing my sister along with me. Clairissa
September 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
My wife and I loved the Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Tour on 9/14! We were lucky that the weather was great. Marco, our tour leader, was outstanding! He shared a lot of history with joy, and answered all the questions, along the way. He was asked to be in many photos, holding the Scotland’s flag, and he did with pleasure. The stops were great. Nice places to visit, fantastic scenery as well. Doug.
September 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands tour from Edinburgh
The tour was simply great: the van was comfy and clean, the view unbeatable and the Tour guide John a real pleasure to meet, he made the experience better for anyone that was on board, and everyone could see his love for the job and his will to let us know more about the Highlands. It was an unforgettable experience. Tommaso
September 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands tour from Edinburgh
The tour through the Highlands, to Loch Ness and back to Edinburgh was beautiful and the highlight of my trip to Scotland. Our driver and guide Robert was absolutely outstanding, both as a driver and a guide. He had so many stories to tell, played great music and took us through the gorgeous landscapes safely and well informed. The tour lasts all day, and I thought the pauses were well spaced out, with time enough to get a bite to eat and a cup of tea. At Fort Augustus you have enough time to get lunch as well as take a boat cruise or look around the town. It was great to have a longer break! All in all, I loved getting to see so much of the Highlands in one day. If I were to take a tour like this again, I’d love to see even more of Scotland and its beauty. The highlight of the tour for me was Glencoe, and I would have happily spent all day just looking at the landscapes of the area. Thanks again to Robert for being such a great guide, and safe driver.
September 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Discover Scotland helped me discover Loch Ness, glencoe and Highlands with them. Mr. Collin was fabulous and knows in detail about everything. He was polite, funny and experienced in taking tours. The cab was also clean and comfortable. Definitely going to recommend it to everyone. Special mention that team put in efforts to return my belongings which I left behind in cab. Nanveet
September 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Had a fantastic time on the tour! Very interesting, had great rapport with the driver . We were able to make a couple of extra stops which were great! You guys have a great operation going, I found out about it on the internet specifically looking to go to Loch Ness and Northern Scotland. I will recommend your company to others! Jay
September 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We were a group of 8 Aussies on the tour and we all absolutely loved it. We could not have asked for a better guide than Gerry. He looked after us from the moment we boarded. He had us singing and played beautiful Scottish music in between telling us tales about Scotland. We all loved the little goodie bag of Scottish treats when we boarded. That was an unexpected and very much appreciated gesture. We highly recommend Discover Scotland Tours. Kym
September 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We were very pleased with our day tour with Karen. The size of the group was just what we were hoping for, and the individual welcome bags was such an unexpected and wonderful surprise. No other tour companies we traveled with did anything like that. Karen was very knowledgeable about all the areas we visited but she didn’t make it too much information. She was accommodating to all the different guests on the bus which included children. We would definitely use your company again if we came back and will recommend you to anyone else. Jim and Debbie
September 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We cannot express how much we enjoyed our tour to Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle. We were met at the pier and greeted with a smile. We were introduced to our guide Dave. I have to say that I have been cruising for many years and this was by far the best tour we have ever taken. Dave was amazing. He was so knowledgeable, and we learned so much from him. We can’t wait to come back. I had let them know when we booked that it would be our 30 year Anniversary. They had a gift bag with some chocolates, other goodies and a sweet card waiting for us when we arrived. We loved the smaller tour group size as well. It felt more personable. What we got from our tour far outweighed any cost. We want to thank everyone at Discover Scotland tours for making this a trip we will never forget. Christine & Stevie
September 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
We were so impressed with our tour from Glasgow to Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle. We are not normally “tour group” people. In fact, my 24 year old daughter had concerns. No need to worry, It was just a joy. The right blend of fun and informative. The pace of the tour was excellent. Enough time to stop for tea, bathroom breaks, lunch, and the sights. Gary was attentive and professional. Also, fun and knowledgeable. I cannot say enough good things. We were limited in seeing a lot of the country as we are traveling by rail. The tour was the perfect way to see a larger part of this beautiful country. Thank you so much! Barbara.
September 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We had such a great time and our tour guide, Colin, was fantastic! He was kind, funny and helpful! We especially loved the Scottish music and Scottish bands that we listened to along the way. It gave to such a fulfilling atmosphere and energy to the beautiful Scottish scenery. We also loved the small tour group, that was one reason we chose your company. Thank you very much for an experience that will last a lifetime! Nasena & Hannah
September 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We had the best time! Our guide, Gary, was extremely professional while also being hilarious. His local knowledge is excellent and contextualised our stops with historical facts and legends, making the day even more memorable. The views across Glencoe were stunning and stopping for lunch at Mallaig was a treat. Our return was timed perfectly to see the train crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct and we were blessed with a beautiful sunny day to enhance the scenery. Rachel
September 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We had a great time on this tour. Stuart was an excellent host and guide. I feel we were able to fit in many sights to make this a special and worthwhile trip. When we asked about highland cows, Stuart even took a short side trip to a field he knew would have the cows in them. I like that the tours are smaller (rather than a large coach) so that it felt more personal. Well done! Bruce
September 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Let me start off by saying how FANTASTIC this tour was! We hadn’t done a tour before and didn’t know what to expect. The balance between seeing so many beautiful sights, the excellent commentary, the music, and the drive to get to them could not have been any better. BILLY IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!! His sense of humour and easy going attitude made it an amazing experience for everyone on the bus. He made us feel like it was a private tour with our closest friends – something not easily achievable when you consider that it was a tour with 16 strangers! He even brought carrots and apples along just in case we came across any harry coos – and we did….just amazing! I truly believe that only a few special employees go above and beyond to make the adventure and experience truly enjoyable for their customers. Scotland is a beautiful country and when you add in the exceptional people like Billy – the memories will last a lifetime. Thank you for such an amazing 3 days! Jo & Rene.
September 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My wife and I recently took part in a 3 day tour of the Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Skye with Discover Scotland Tours. The tour was hosted by our driver Gerry and was a treat from start to finish. We knew very little about Scotland as this was our first visit to this country. Gerry was full of knowledge about the area and its history and made the trip so interesting. Thank you Gerry. Our BnB for 2 nights in Broadford, Skye, was excellent. I would highly recommend taking this tour. Nigel
September 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Everything was perfectly good including the guide/driver. He’s very helpful and arranged sufficient time for us to spend on each spot. I have a wonderful time and experience during this trip. Thank you and the Team for tie good work! Carmen
August 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible experience we had during our recent tour of Scotland. Our tour guide, Frances, truly made our journey unforgettable. Frances’s exceptional warmth and friendliness were truly remarkable. Both my son and I found her to be not only knowledgeable but also incredibly kind, making us feel right at home. The thoughtfulness she put into curating the music during our trip was astounding; the melodies were not only delightful but also perfectly complemented the landscapes we visited. The tour was more than just sightseeing; we had the pleasure of learning some Scottish Gaelic along the way. Phrases like “Glen,” “Ben,” “Loch,” and “lochhos” now hold a special place in our hearts. The attention to detail in selecting the destinations was evident; every stop was a testament to the beauty of Scotland. The rest stops during our journeys were well-timed, providing a perfect balance between exploration and relaxation. The villages we visited were truly enchanting, each one offering a unique glimpse into the Scottish culture and way of life. Scotland’s natural beauty left us in awe at every turn, and Frances’s knowledge and enthusiasm added a rich layer to our understanding of the places we explored. One unforgettable moment was when Frances took us to see the Coos. The opportunity to capture those charming creatures on camera, along with the gift of the Scottish flag during our photo session, showcased Frances’s creativity and thoughtfulness. Your vehicles were not only immaculate but also modern and comfortable, ensuring that every aspect of our journey was seamless. The insightful introductions and explanations throughout the tour expanded our horizons, allowing us to appreciate Scotland on a deeper level. Once again, thank you for crafting a journey that will remain etched in our hearts forever. Frances’s exceptional guidance, the breathtaking landscapes, and the enriching experiences have left us with treasured memories. We look forward to recommending your services to fellow travelers and hope to cross paths again in the future. Warmest regards, Chara.
August 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I booked on to the Glenfinnan viaduct, Glencoe and Loch Shiel tour on Sunday 14th August. My driver was Robert and from the moment he pulled up at the pick up point , he was polite, friendly and chatty. We left on time and immediately Robert was in tour mode. His information throughout the tour was brilliant, informative, historical, local and everything in between. He is such a personable gentleman. I would highly recommend Discover Scotland tours and will certainly be booking again soon. Thanks for a great day Robert. Steph
August 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I would gladly like to share our unforgettable experience with Discover Scotland Tours. We truly loved everything in the Highland Lochs, Glens and Castles Tour, beautiful scenery, landscapes with sheeps and cows, lakes, villages, castles so much to see! If you choose this tour, I believe you are getting a great picture of this amazing country! I was looking for something genuine and I found your website well presented with very good reviews and the fact that the group was small made me choose it without second thought! Last but not least, the leader of our tour Robert was the key of success for this excellent daytrip, knowledgeable, professional and intimate too, benevolent and great photographer! I would like to thank him once again for this great day, I appreciate so much the quality of scottish people, you are one of a kind! Totally recomended!! Aikterini.
August 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I loved the trip to Lochs and Castles. I enjoyed all stops, and appreciated our Tour Leader, Francis, whose enthusiasm is contagious. I had already had a wonderful experience with Discover Scotland Tours (a day trip to the Highlands and Loch Ness) and I recommend it. Paola.
August 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
I had the most amazing tour with James. Even though the weather wasn’t great it was still absolutely magical. James has such a depth of knowledge and true love for Scotland, it just radiates out of him and is so wonderful to experience. Along with that he has a great sense of humor and creates such a warm, safe environment with excellent driving skills. If I were looking for another tour, I’d check your website first before all else — because my experience was just perfect. Gwen
August 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We were very impressed with the entire process from the online booking to the pick up point and the very clear instructions for planning the trip. On the day of the trip the bus was already there and Francis gave a very warm welcome. The bus was very clean and the itinerary was excellent. Francis was an excellent tour guide and driver. I would like to think of myself as a professional driver and Francis was clearly a highly trained driver and got her guests enthralled with the stories of the trip. The various stops were well placed and timely. A highly enjoyable day seeing the delights of the highlands and lochs. I would readily book with the company again. Alan
August 2023– Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour itself deserves 5 stars. The views, the history, the adventure! If I could give this an extra 6th star I would because of our guide, Billy. He was informative, fun, and an absolute blast to have along! I’m not sure if you can specifically request someone, but Billy is worth the price of admission by himself! We were blessed with perfect weather the whole day which only accentuated all the beaitiful sites we saw. What an amazing trip and journey and exactly what we were looking for on our honeymoon! Charis and Josh.
August 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Our Discover Scotland Tour far exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide, Michael, felt like family from the start. He got to know all of his passengers and truly seemed invested in getting to know us all. I can’t speak highly enough of him and when we return to Scotland we will be booking another tour with him. The stops and the scenery were absolutely stunning. Every place we stopped leant itself to breath taking photo opportunities. The weather was gorgeous and we felt we had ample time at each stop. I would not change a single thing about our tour and have highly recommended it to everyone I know. We cannot wait to come back to Scotland and Discover more of your beautiful country! Thanks for the memories of a lifetime! Marianna
August 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We spent the day yesterday with Discover Scotland and highly recommend their service. We were met at cruise terminal by a couple of crazy guys wearing kilts and they set the tone for the day. The bus was really nice and we each got a treat bag with local snacks which was a great touch. Billy was our guide and although Dave thought he was better, we still believe that Billy did it better! Mother Nature provided the perfect weather and Billy’s narrative was entertaining. The small tour size is perfect for getting on and off at stops. Again, highly recommend Discover Scotland! Thanks again, Barbara
August 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We very much enjoyed our tour – Highland lochs, glens and castles and would not hesitate to recommend it to others. The motor coach was very comfortable and it was a nice touch to be provided with water and ‘Scottish snacks for the journey! Our driver and tour leader was excellent, providing information and commentary with humour. The day was well organised and we got to see a great variety along the way. The visit to Inverary Castle was great and also gave us the opportunity to visit the town which we really enjoyed. I much prefer travelling with a local company than ‘ship tours’. Thank you for a great day. Jennifer.
August 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
The very comfortable tour van was waiting right outside the port gate which was very convenient. Our tour guide, Karen, was very informative and accommodating. We really enjoyed our tour, especially Stirling Castle. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Scotland. Vickie
August 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Karen was an absolute rockstar tour guide. She was fun, high energy, informative, spontaneous, yet also kept us on track to see the Jacobite steam train cross the viaduct on schedule. She suggested things to do in Mallaig and let us stop for photos many times along the way. We even got to have a wee paddle at the Silver Sands beach. She told stories and legends along the was so we felt more connected to Scotland and it’s people. We learned so much. We are 100% glad we spent our day with her and got to see all the moods of the changing terrain as we passed along the route in the gorgeous Highlands. History, culture, legends, lore, songs, stories and facts—plus her witticisms. You couldn’t ask for a better day or guide. Thanks! Jena and Nina
August 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Our guide Billy was exceptionally energetic and knowledgeable throughout the long 12-hour trip. He kept the entire group engaged from start to finish with his bubbly personality, funny jokes, and wealth of information about Scottish history and culture. I was very impressed that Billy maintained his high energy level and passion for sharing details about each location we visited over the full day. He clearly loves his job and conveying his expertise. The stops he chose showed the best of the stunning Highland scenery. Overall, it was a fantastic tour experience thanks to Billy’s efforts. Please pass along my gratitude and compliments on a job extremely well done. Experiences like this will bring me back to book future tours with your company. Jeetender.
August 2023 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow.
The whole trip was amazing and loved every minute, though Fingals cave was something I’d wanted to do for a long time. Son’s favourite was Glencoe. The Fuaran BB was a clean, beautiful, comfortable place to stay and very peaceful. Breakfast options were varied and delicious. Susan, the host was lovely and welcoming and very accommodating. The driver Stuart/Stewart was friendly, very knowledgeable and we had a good laugh with him. Can’t wait for next trip. Margaret.
August 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
This tour was beautiful. The sights and landscape were fantastic. The weather was typically Scottish. rain and sun. The bus was very clean. The driver, Karen, she is an excellent driver and tour guide. Your stories very informative. There were breaks for photos, restaurant. Enough time for sightseeing. We enjoyed it very much and are happy to have booked this tour. It was our first visit to Scotland. We are very happy to recommend it. Many thanks to Karen and the tour team from Andreas and Maria.
August 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We went on the Oban, Glencoe and more trip on August 16. We had an AMAZING time! Our guide, Jerry, made the trip exceptional with his facts, history, music, jokes and knowledge about the area. We even had time for extra stops along the way. When a car accident blocked the road home, Jerry found another route and updated us all the way. We did not feel like we missed anything because of the road-block. The castles, glens, lochs and mountains along the trip were amazing! There were always enough time to take pictures and enjoy the sights, while also moving on and experiencing more. All credit goes to Jerry! He was amazing and we 100% want to go back on more tours with this company. Thank you for a wonderful trip! Two Norwegian girls.
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Our 3-day trip around the Isle of Skye, the Highlands and Loch Ness was perfection. We road in a Luxury Mercedes Coach and had the best tour Guide in Billy. Billy was kind, knowledgeable and engaging to all of us. The tour went on without a hitch and we enjoyed every minute of it. Price was great for all that we received – especially the respect for our needs that we were shown. Billy and my tour mates are now fast friends. Spectacular views, Harry Potter Train and wonderful history of a beautiful country. Highly recommend this tour service and would certainly travel with Discover Scotland and again. Tom & Nancy.
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
The trip was impeccable, we were lucky to have a perfect weather. Stuart is very knowledgeable, he really knows everything in the area and shared a lot of stories that we couldn’t have learnt without joining this tour. The whole journey is well planned, we saw everything that we should have seen. B&B on Isle of Skype was a great choice too, with the best view and wonderful breakfast. Thank you for organizing everything! Please help pass our appreciation to Stuart. Best, Yi Zou.
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We were not disappointed by the tour. It was everything we thought it would be, and we thought there was sufficient time provided at most of the stops given the jam-packed itinerary. Our tour guide, Jerry, was very personable, and we enjoyed his anecdotes; his knowledge of Scottish history and “fun facts” that he shared throughout the tour at the appropriate moment – including music; his humor; and his personal care of us when we got dropped off in Glasgow. We also appreciated the help in booking a B&B in Breakish and the dinner recommendation; both were amazing! Overall, the tour accomplished everything we were hoping, and we would highly recommend Discover Scotland! Thank you for the wonderful experience, and we hope to join you again in the future. Maddy.
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I had a fabulous time, the group was a lot of fun and the bus was very comfortable with enough rest stops to stretch our legs and use the washroom. The scenery was stunning and the weather was good for a change. Our tour guide Dave was so fun, entertaining and very knowledgeable….very nice fella and played good tunes. The stay at Winkle Beach B&B was exceptional , Loved it there and Fiona was a gracious, lovely host. I’m rating the tour a 10 outta 10. 😁. Thank you, Caroline
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I honestly loved everything about my experience and I was sad when it ended. I loved our guide (Colin) so much. He looked after us so well, he was such a great driver & so considerate of others on the road, our needs, etc. I truly can’t say I would change anything. I feel like the 4-day tour was great because we got to see and do a ton & I feel like the time frames at each stop were good to be able to do as much as I wanted. Colin was great at communicating expectations, time frames, etc. He was super prompt and overall had a really good read on what we needed. Thanks again!! I had the best time! Diana.
August 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
You guys did an amazing job from replying to all my inquiries before booking, following up on suggestions, dos and don’t, helping us with the B&B was great. The tour itself was awesome, Dave our guy was always polite and explained everything, provided us with history, insights, lots of music. I would rate you 10/10 and recommend the company. Thanks for everything. Amanda.
July 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
We recently came back from our Scotland trip. We booked 1 day of Highland lochs, Glens & castle with Discover Scotland Tours. Thanks to our tour leader Frances for giving us the best experience and sharing insightful information about various lochs, castles and history of Scotland. She was flexible with the haults during the travel. The tour was full of amazing experiences, scenic landscapes & great conversations. If you are looking for exploring Scotland, we would like to recommend Frances & Team Discover Scotland Tours. Trust me, you will have the experience of your life.
July 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
The tour itself was great! We really enjoyed it. Our tour guide, John, was very informative and seemed to know a lot about all the places we passed. His amazing storytelling abilities and sense of humor made the tour very enjoyable. I specifically liked the fact that tours are done in small groups, which makes the experience even more personal. The buses are also very comfortable, which is always nice. Overall, we had a great experience, would definitely book again when we come back and will highly recommend to friends and family! Amber
July 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Our Tour Guide/driver, John, was the best, including his commentary, safe driving and even his choice of music. Rod Stewart’s “Maggie May” among others. Everything ran on schedule, from leaving to arriving back on time to Edinburgh with sufficient time at the various stops. John was ever present and ready to answer any questions, with a Scottish Gaelic joke thrown in for good measure!😂🤣 I’m only sorry I didn’t have more time to do a longer trip with your company to Inverness and Isle of Skye. Your brochure is well done and informative. I wish your company all the best in your endeavours, and look forward to using you again in the near future. Kathryn.
July 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Even if you only have a few days in Scotland, don’t just stay in Glasgow or Edinburgh. A day trip to the Highlands is well worth it. We were lucky enough to have had an almost private trip. Our driver/guide Karen was just great. She personified everything you could possibly expect on your way to learn about Scottish history and nature: humanity, knowledge, insider information, wit and an enviable passion and pride for her beautiful country, its moving history, and its breathtaking landscape. And on top of it all: she gave us a valuable tip for a great steak at Miller&Carter in Glasgow :-). Milan & Oliver
July 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I would like to thank your tours for making our holiday complete. We enjoyed your tour so much we can’t wait to come back and do one of the 3 day tours. Our tour guide Colin was amazing. So full of interesting snippets of Scottish information and kept the full bus laughing with the famous Scottish sense of humor. He definitely made the tour fun and interesting from start to finish. I will definitely be telling all our friends in Canada about Discover Scotland Tours and you can be sure you will see us again. Marion.
July 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We LOVED this tour! Beautiful and interesting stops and plenty of time at each location. Loved the pub for lunch. A real highlight was Gary! He was so much fun and so engaging! We wouldn’t change a thing. Patricia
July 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We had the pleasure of being on the Loch Lomand tour with Michael. We loved this tour. We loved the stops in the small villages, particularly Luss. We really liked the unexpected addition of the stop to see the Highland cows. It was a highlight for us. Michael was a great tour guide and made sure we had a wonderful day. Thank you, Dusty.
July 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I would like to say thank you for the most wonderful trip I’ve ever had in my life. Scotland is magestic, its indeed a beautiful country.❤thanks Esp to our tour guide , Dave. He is very funny, respectful and a trustworthy driver. I’ll definetly book your company again in my future travel.❤Janica
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My wife and I had a very nice tour. The tour guide cum driver, Dave, was excellent. His pleasant and helpful attitude made the tour very pleasant. Ours was a small homogeneous group and we made a few friends. Our B&B at the Isle of Skye, Cliffehouse, was very good with excellent location. We really loved our stay there. Overall, we are carrying lovely memories of Scotland back to India. Our best wishes, Nallepilly.
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I was on the 3-day Tour from Edinburgh to Skye and it was just such a great experience that I highly recommend. The sights & the stops were all perfectly planned out with plenty of time to enjoy, take photos, shop, have a tea or lunch, etc. Additionally, I felt fortunate because we had a great driver, Gary. He was on top of everything! Very detail oriented. He made it entertaining and fun from start to finish with stories & history all in the mix but we also had moments of relaxation with music in the background and not just bagpipes lol which btw, I love. The group was the perfect size, not too big and not too small – around 16 people from different nationalities was really nice. If you want to know more go for the Discover Scotland Experience. Great professionals! Thank you guys for going the extra mile: Gary on the front-end and the team behind him that made it happen! Thank you thank you thank you! Wishing you the best of luck! You deserve it! Eva
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
We loved our tour guide Stuart Ferguson. He was fun, personable, and very accommodating. His stories were entertaining and a useful part of the tour experience. The music was great, too! We would do this tour again. Lisa
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
I had the most wonderful experience on the 4 day Isle of Skye , Highlands and Loch ness trip. Scott was great, kept us busy with tuning to the great songs played on the coach. My stay was convenient and the tour was hassle free. My group members were amazing as well, very friendly and warm. Undoubtedly, I would give this trip a 5 star. Keep up with the good work.Thank you once again for having memorable 4 days in the paradise. Sneh
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Our trip was amazing – the best part of our entire England, Scotland, and Ireland trip. Our place of accommodation was fantastic. David at 16 Kyleside was the perfect host. All the food recommendations that were given to us (by your company) were great. Our driver was Stevie – who I have to say is one of the best tour guides I have had. He was extremely knowledgeable and easy going. Thoroughly enjoyed all the information he shared with us. Just a lovely guy – always felt safe and well looked after. Thanks so much! Will definitely recommend this tour company to others. Natalie
July 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Thank you very much for the wonderful and unforgettable tour. The sites were fantastic, and the itinerary did a good job of breaking up the ride, especially to/from Edinburgh, so that there was not too much consecutive time sitting on the bus. Through the Highlands and on Skye, I’m not sure what else we could have seen as Gary did a fantastic job of packing as much in as possible, including adjusting plans as required due to rain. Speaking of Gary, perhaps the best way to pay compliments to him is to share that when friends ask about our tour, my wife always begins with, not the amazing scenery, history, etc. that we experienced, but with how great our guide Gary. His knowledge, friendliness, and gregarious sense of fun is infectious. Finally, thank you very much for setting us up in our accommodations with David in Kyleakin. David was a gracious and personable host, our room was comfortable, and Kyleakin had all we needed with Saucy Mary’s and King Haakon. It was great to be able to experience the village. Thank you again, Dan.

We are pleased to give some feedback as we were very pleased with every aspect of our trip. Our tour leader James was very good and entertaining, he was informative , helpful and a very good driver . He gave us a lot of local history which made each place even more interesting. We left on time and arrived back on time which is amazing with traffic on winding roads. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would recommend friends and family to use your company. Many thanks for a day to remember and we would definitely book again when we return to Scotland. Stephanie
June 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We are happy to give you feedback on our trip on 05/06/23 Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel. We were greeted warmly at the meeting point by our driver John. We really liked his typical outfit :-). Throughout the tour we felt safe on the bus. John was an excellent driver. We really enjoyed the tour. The landscape of the Highlands really impressed us. Mansur & Carina
June 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I found your tour on TripAdvisor and it seemed to have a balance of everything we were looking for. The tour was the last day of our 9 day England and Scotland trip and we saved the best for last! Our guide Robert was amazing; he was a wealth of knowledge and we learned so much. My daughters and I asked if we could stop and see some Scottish highland cows and he squeezed in a quick stop to feed them! It was great being in a smaller group than those mega bus tours, and I wouldn’t change a thing. Scotland stole our hearts and we will return soon and will be booking more trips with Robert if possible and Discover Scotland Tours! Well done! Bonnie.
June 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
Robert was a wonderful guide and went out of his way for us. He would stop at sites if we wanted to take pictures as long as it was safe. He was full of information about the sites and Scotland. He was also was honest if he did not know the answer, which is refreshing. I would recommend Discover Scotland Tours to everyone. It was one of the nicest days we had in Scotland. Katherine.
June 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
James was a great driver who provided plenty of interesting facts in between the locations we visited and even played some appropriate (and beautiful) Scottish songs on the way. In addition, I can say that we absolutely loved our tour: James was early at meeting point and always friendly and courteous. He was also a great source of information It was a pleasure to listen to his relating of pertinent history, as well as pointing out locations of interest for HP and Outlander fans. Taking us to see the Highland cows up close was a lovely and very much appreciated Daddituin to the tour. We also appreciated his suggesting to book Stirling Castle tickets online. He was a safe and very competent driver on quite challenging roads also. I liked his playing of the Scottish music at a relatively low volume too. Well done James on all accounts. I would not change a thing about our tour. Ingrid
June 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We loved our trip! We were amazed by the views, and we loved the fact that we had so many little stops for taking pictures and enjoying the landscape! Moreover, our tour guide Billy was a great driver and a lovely person! The size of the group was also perfect! In case we ever come back to Scotland we will definitely book another one of your tours! Thank you for this awesome experience! Celine & Melina.
June 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
My wife and I would like to thank you very much for this magnificent day out to the Highlands. So much ground was covered, the scenery just stunning. Our wonderful tour leader who took care of us for the day was Karen, friendly and so very knowledgeable. This trip I would truly recommend. Mike & Jo
June 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
My wife and I visited Scotland as part of our anniversary celebration and we are very glad to have chosen Discover Scotland Tours! Gary was an excellent guide and driver and his wife made some delicious shortbread for the group! That personal touch plus the individual “goodie bag” on everyone’s seat started everyone in a good mood. While on our cruise, we had seven guided tours and Gary was the only guide who took the time to display a map in the front of the bus and tell us of the route before we started driving. His commentary throughout the day was very much enjoyed, blending humor and history which kept everyone engaged. The route took us through some breathtaking countryside! We enjoyed all the stops and had ample time at each location, never feeling rushed. In the last half hour, when all the other tours become silent on the drive back, Gary has the entire bus singing along with YMCA and other songs! What a great ending to a fantastic day! Thank you, Gary, for the great memories! We wholeheartedly recommend Discover Scotland Tours.
June 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Striling Castle Shore Excursion
We enjoyed it very much. We really liked the itinerary and all the places we visited. The small group was ideal much better than large bus tours. The cost was very reasonable and well worth it. Our guide Billy was very personable, friendly and provided just the right amount of information for us. The bag with water and chocolate was a very nice added touch and made the excursion even more special. Thanks for a great excursion and making our stop in Glasgow one of our favorite stops. Judi
June 2023 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Striling Castle Shore Excursion
Michael O’Bryan was our guide for a fun day out and about in Glasgow. He was very knowledgeable of the history & made it fun for everyone. The highlight was Stirling Castle! Magnificent. We would recommend Michael & Discover Scotland Tours again. Judy, Ryan, Lynn & Joe.
June 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
My partner, Charlie, and I enjoyed it very much. Colin was a great tour guide – relaxed, funny and very thoughtful. He was also a safe and skilled driver – I guess that’s a must in the Highlands! In my opinion, Colin went above and beyond at several points to show us special aspects of the area: a cruise on the Loch, a stop at Doane Castle for a photo opp on the way to Stirling, buying veggies to feed the Scottish cattle Hamish and Honey (well, mostly Hamish). We also learned about where a lot of musicians were originally from – due to his playlist. In sum, we very much enjoyed our tour and appreciated that it was such a small group as well. It allowed for flexibility and not feeling rushed. Denise
June 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
I can honestly say that your day trip to Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle was my loveliest day in Scotland. Not only were the places and scenery superb, as it is everywhere in Scotland, but the tour itself was very well put together with regard to timing and scheduled stops. I liked your little bus, too. It seemed to be more spacious than other mini buses I’ve been on. However, what made this tour so special was the tour guide / driver, Steve. He was brilliant. He had a wonderful personality. He was funny, witty, kind, very informative and spoke beautifully about the places, landmarks and history of the items on the itinerary without any boring, overly-detailed talking at clients. What a marvelous ambassador for Scotland he is. Also, for Glasgow and your company. He made my day by playing a beautiful version of the song Loch Lomond as we drove away from its fabled shore. He also bought some carrots etc so we could hand feed some famous highland cattle along the way, Hamish and co. I can’t recommend your tour highly enough, but really it was all down to Steve, a truly charming and engaging person. So thank you Steve for giving me such a fantastic, memorable day in Scotland. All the very best. I hope the years ahead treat you kindly. Derinda
June 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I had the pleasure of touring with Scott on Sunday, June 4. He was an absolute delight and I loved every second of the tour. He was the right mix of fun, personable, professional and knowledgeable. I loved how he created a friendly atmosphere amongst the group—the sing alongs were a great idea😊 One unexpected gift I took away from the experience was the music we listened to on the bus. I am now home in Michigan listening to a couple of new-to-me artists that Scott was playing that day. I obviously loved the locations we visited on the tour, but the whole thing was elevated with Scott’s involvement. Please tell him it was the best tour of the trip. Thanks so much for offering a great experience. Next time I’m in Scotland, I’ll definitely book more with Discover Scotland Tours! Thanks again, Heather.
June 2023 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
I wanted to drop you a note to say what a wonderful trip I had to the Isle of Isle of Mull and the Isle of Iona with your tour company. I went with my mother who booked the trip and it was amazing from start to finish. From the cleanliness and comfort of the bus, to the scheduling, to the tasteful pit stops at some gorgeous cafes, to the locations and accommodation. It was superb. Of course, the added bonus was our wonderful driver/tour guide/singer (with a huge repertoire of tea towels used to declare our next destination) ~ Gary Mulholland, who was amazing. Please pass on a big thank to him as he went above and beyond. I really love the fact that you are a family business, and I have spread the word of how great the holiday was to a bunch of people over here in Canada. I will be booking again next year for sure. Keep doing what you are doing and thank you to all the team – those behind the scenes too! Wishing you all a lovely summer. Sarah
June 2023 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
What a wonderful few days, magical. Great fellow passengers and the excellent Stuart Ferguson who is a first class tour guide and the nicest person. Couldn’t do enough for us, making sure we were all happy and supplying us with lots of information. We also had the bonus of the nicest sunniest weather possible. A very big thank you to Discover Scotland Team, you are all very professional in every way from booking to fulfilling our holiday and the welcome back gift of delicious Scottish goodies was very much appreciated and a very thoughtful gesture. We hope that someday we get to enjoy another tour with Stuart Ferguson as we enjoyed his company and care very much. Elizabeth and David
June 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
We booked the 4 day tour to the Isle of Skye. Our driver and tour guide was Gary. We look back on a wonderful time. The Highlands and the island are simply a dream. We saw everything we wanted to see beforehand, even if we would have liked to have been longer or shorter here and there, but that is part of an organised tour. The programme was balanced and the destinations numerous. But it was never stressful or even boring. The rides between the destinations are an event in themselves. Even if the roads are bumpy, you can take good photos and movies from the bus with a good camera. Gary always cleaned the bus and drove us safely over the narrowest roads and most breathtaking scenery. We just had to look and marvel. We stayed in Kyleakin. A wonderful coastal town and a warm host. Be sure to book a restaurant well in advance. The bus is very comfortable. Gary, you are great and Discover Scotland Tours and all future guests are lucky that you love your job and do it the way you did. There were moments every day when we laughed heartily with him and enjoyed his ideas. We will never forget the 15 minutes high up at Niest Point on the bus in the heavy rain outside. But we don’t want to spoil anything. We give 6 out of 5 stars. Björn and Alex.
June 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had an absolutely fabulous time on the tour! We covered all the parts of the Highlands and Skye that I was hoping to see, and Jerry provided great explanations and context for each stop. The accommodation at the Sheiling was lovely, and the hosts were great. Overall, a great experience and I wouldn’t change anything! Thanks! Tara
June 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Everything from the van we rode in, to the itinerary and stops we made were fantastic but what truly stood out and what will be the reason I recommend your company to anyone traveling to Scotland was our tour guide Stevie. Stevie provided us with such an amazing experience. He not only gave us a wealth of information as we experienced the beauty and history of the Highlands and Isle of Skye but he was a true entertainer. Stevie not only gave us the history but constantly made us laugh and the time between stops flew by. My wife and I have been reminding each other about all the things Stevie did for our group that was truly above and beyond. Stevie really cared about making sure that our experience was as good as it possibly could be. As a result my wife and I had an absolutely wonderful time. Justin.
May 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had an excellent experience on the 1-Day Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel tour on May 2nd with James! From start to finish, James choreographed the tour in such a way that we had lovely scenery, fun music that complimented our route, and/or stories at all times. Every stop on the tour was worthwhile, and James ensured that we knew the history and facts about each place we passed by or visited. The tour itinerary was perfect for us! We particularly loved the stops at the Glencoe visitor centre and Loch Shiel, and the stop to see the hairy coos! James expertly drove us very safely across the highlands, and got us to our destinations ahead of other tours so that we had a more quiet experience. There were lots of wonderful surprises along the way, with very exciting destinations that had not been mentioned in the itinerary. We were also provided with plenty of “comfort” breaks so we could go to washrooms or find food. This tour was our first full day tour on our trip, and James set the bar extremely high, definitely challenging other tour companies that we used over the course of the trip. We would highly recommend Discover Scotland Tours, and especially send our gratitude to James for being such an outstanding tour guide. Caroline
May 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
My husband and I really enjoyed our day trip with Discover Scotland to Glencoe and Glenfinnan Viaduct. We had Robert as our tour guide, and he was very knowledgeable and told great facts and stories along the journey. The absolute standout of the trip was seeing the Jacobite steam train going over the Glenfinnan Viaduct. Discover Scotland Tours makes seeing Scotland more accessible for travellers who only have a short time in the country. For us, we only had 3 full days in Scotland and utilising one of those days for this tour was the best decision. 10 out of 10! ☺️ Krystal
My fiancé and I had a fantastic trip with you on the Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Tour. The tour was incredibly well thought out as the perfect 1-day trip to get a taste of the highlands, Scottish nature and history.
May 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
My fiancé and I had a fantastic trip with you on the Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Tour. The tour was incredibly well thought out as the perfect 1-day trip to get a taste of the highlands, Scottish nature and history.Our Tour Leader, James, is probably the best and most dedicated guide I have come across on all my travels. He was very polite and enthusiastic, dedicated to give us a good tour – and to provide us with a lot of interesting and charming information about the tour, Scotland and Scottish history. In other words: Perfect work from James! Keep up the good work! Nicole & Mads
May 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
We had a really lovely time!. Everything was on time; small group and you really did not feel rushed or in a big group. You had plenty of time to enjoy the sights on your own. Our driver was wonderful, lovely sense of humour and amazing knowledge. You could tell it was not just a job, but he had pride in showing us Scotland. Nazira
May 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We took one day tour to Highlands, Glencoe and Loch Ness. It was awesome! The weather was at the end great!! Driver/Tour leader and his colleague were amazing! They answered any question, was really nice and made an amazing job that day! The tour was perfectly putted together. We are from the Czech Republic and we would like to thank you for an amazing time with you guys! Have a nice day. The Family of Latinovi
May 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I absolutely adored the tour! I have recommended it to many people that I’ve met while travelling in Scotland. I really enjoyed it!! Our tour leader, Michael, was funny, and very knowledgeable. Thank you, Veronica
May 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Great Experience! We were joining the loch ness tour on the 10.05.2023 and it was absolutely great, the weather wasnt perfect but our excellent tour guide Karen, made the tour an absolute highlight. She had the right stories the best music and made us feel very comfortable. It was absolutely great and we had an fantastic time. Thank you so much. Elisabeth
May 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
Karen from Discover Scotland Tours was an absolute delight and provided an outstanding tour through the Scottish highlands. She even made extra stops and catered to our groups interests. I have a prosthetic medical device that require frequent pit stops which is a bit tricky in the highlands. Karen was wonderful about discreetly playing the song “loch Lomond” which she had told me before hand that would give me the cue that a possible stop was ahead. She was also wonderful about making the coach a nut free space as I am severely allergic. She went above and beyond to be accommodating and was the best guide in our entire trip to Scotland. Karen is a natural story teller with captivating narrative and vast knowledge. Her tour was absolutely incredible, and our very best moments were on her tour. Should we ever go to Scotland again (and we hope we do!) we will 100% be seeking out more tours with discover Scotland and be requesting Karen by name! We recommend this tour to anyone of all ages and promise it won’t disappoint- 5 stars! Catherine
May 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
Our tour guide was Billy and he made our tour very entertaining, his wealth of information was amazing. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone. Thank you Billy for a grand day out.
Jane
May 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We had a great time, our tour guide Michael was really funny and he told us a lot about Scotland/Glasgow. I really liked the music he played after telling something about a specific subject. It was the total package. The alternation between driving, being outside and leisure was good too! We came back to our hostel very happy and we still talk about it every day. Would definitely recommend! Thank you. Janey
May 2023 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day tour from Glasgow
To say we had the best time on our recent tour would be an underestimation! The itinerary has to be commended for its variety and allowing time for exploring in the most breathtaking scenery was much appreciated. As a small group , it was really lovely to share our experiences and to have the opportunity to make new friends. The b and b you booked for us was also really lovely run by kind and attentive hosts. But, without our leader Scott, the tour would have been a shade less memorable ! His enthusiasm and obvious commitment to ensuring the best experience for us all, was so much appreciated. He was caring and empathetic to the needs of all the passengers and his sense of humour and knowledge of the spectacular places we encountered were second to none. Thankyou Scott and all at Discover Scotland. Joan and Brian
May 2023 – Isle of Skye the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I would like to share our feedback because the experience with Dave has been fantastic! He went above and beyond to make the Highlands trip unforgettable! Overall it was very informative, authentic and fun. The Scottish landscape is beautiful and the accommodation you arranged for us was perfect! Really, I can’t say anything negative about our experience and I definitely want to return to Scotland! Keep up the good work and wish you all the best, Marlene
May 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
This 3 day tour was amazing. So well planned, and it really made the most of each day. I couldn’t get over how much was packed into 3 days, and yet it never felt rushed at any of the stops – just really effective planning. Our guide was Billy who was wonderful!! Not only was he very friendly and entertaining, he also really seemed to do everything he could to make sure we saw as much as possible and got the best value for the trip. Lisa
May 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
I absolutely loved the tour and thought John was so wonderful, he had a great sense of humor and seemed really interested in sharing information with us about Scotland and the history of the Highlands. I jokingly asked him (because we were listening to a Scottish cover of an Australian song) if there was a cover of an American song, and he ended up telling us about a Highlands folk dance called America and the history behind it, and played us a song about it. I mean, it doesn’t get more impressive than that! I really had such a wonderful time!! Jackie
May 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
We had a great time on our tour and would highly recommend it to others. The combination of Colin and Dave worked very well. They were both very friendly, engaging, and clearly very knowledgeable about Scotland. The highlights for our group were the Fairy Pools and the Fairy Glen. We enjoyed all of the active components of the tour especially. We found out about this tour because I took a few 1-day tours with you guys in 2019. I enjoyed them and brought my family back for a bigger tour. We also really enjoyed our 1-day tour to Obam yesterday. We went for the Grand Platter at the Green Shack and weren’t disappointed. Our tour guide was great as well. Thank you, Lucas.
May 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
It was great. Aside from the beautiful scenery, what really made this trip fun and interesting was because of your tour guides Stevie and Karen. I spent most of my time with Stevie and he couldn’t have been more helpful. What makes him such a great guide is his combination of personality and knowledge. To begin with he’s a nice man with great people skills and extremely funny. He is also very knowledgeable on the history of the places we visited. I found Karen to have the same qualities. Between then, they made our tour the best. Please thank them again from myself and my wife Ann. One other point. The B&B we stayed at run by David was one of the best we’ve stayed at. Thanks again for a great tour, Denis and Ann
April 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
My tour was fantastic as was my Tour Leader! Great day-long experience that allowed me to see key Scottish landmarks that I wouldn’t have been able to otherwise without a car. Perfect size group as well. Thank you! Jessica
April 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
! I attended with my partner on my birthday. I was incredibly nervous to choose this activity for my “big day”, especially since we had never been on a tour like this before. I was worried that it would be a bit hokey, boring, and that I would miss out on the experience that I could have had if I had just “gone it alone” by renting a car. But wow, it was such a wonderful choice! I truly couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend the day. Our tour guide was super positive, knowledgeable, and always showed how invested that he was in ensuring that we received the best experience on our tour. I learned so much more than I ever would have by traversing alone, and I loved that our tour guide was a Scotsman. Coming from a touristy town ourselves in the USA, there’s nothing more infuriating than hearing people that are not local to the area telling YOUR story. Having a Scotsman telling us Scottish history was incredibly meaningful. We loved the smaller group sizes. It created a peaceful and intimate atmosphere – again, perfect for my birthday! It made getting in, out, and around our stops so much easier. I thought the van was top notch – sparkling clean, perfect windows to see through, and super modern in appearance and comfort. The music was perfection, and we even looked up some of the songs so we could listen to them again later after the tour. A.B
April 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
This tour was our most favorite of all the tours we engaged with while in Scotland! James was a true professional who was so easy to connect with during the entire tour. He was well versed in all things Scotland, it’s history, good stories and a fantastic personality to boot! The tour bus was clean, which we greatly appreciated – and it wasn’t overcrowded. We had a really great group of folks on our tour. The fact that James was able to both drive and narrate the tour was noteworthy! Also – to note – every place we went – James was known to the people working at the locations – and they really seemed to like him. So he has good repertoire with everyone! I would absolutely recommend your tour agency – and you can tell the difference between a smaller family owned business versus a larger one. Our experience was night and day between the 2. Your tour agency was hands down the best! Amy
April 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
This tour was the best experience of our whole trip to Scotland! The van was very comfortable and the views were indescribable. Because of our amazing tour guide Michael it never got even close to boring sitting in that van. He had so many interesting stories about Scottish history and fun facts about everything we saw.The stops were planned to perfection – never got so long that you were bored or so short you felt you didn’t have time to explore and take pictures. My goal with this tour was to see the dramatic Scottish highlands with its lochs and mountains, and the beautiful castles of Scotland. I got all of this and much more thanks to Michael and beautiful Scotland. I would recommend everyone traveling to Scotland to take this tour. It’s still hard to take in all we got to see during just one day! Amazing. Hanna & Oscar
April 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies tour & Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands tour from Edinburgh
We very much enjoyed our trips with Gary (I believe the surname is Mulholland–may not have spelled that correctly). We went on the Loch Lomond, Kelpies and Stirling Castle Tour as well as the Glen Coe, Loch Ness Tour. We were with Gary both times. I would like to say that Gary is perfect for the job. He is entertaining, has good stories, provides interesting information about the sites, and is quite friendly. It was nice to meet someone who is a true local, as well. The tours are well planned and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! The bus was comfortable, as well. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for one! Heather
April 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies tour
An excellent tour and thoroughly enjoyed by my family (2 x adults, 2 x teenagers). James was our guide and was very informative, humorous and engaging, an excellent driver too. I particularly liked this smaller tour and the mini bus. Felt very safe at all times; the journey was very pleasant with some lovely scenery. Well thought out itinerary with frequent stops and enough time to enjoy the castle and Loch Lomond. Would certainly recommend this company and would use them again as we’re planning to return to Scotland as we were so impressed with Edinburgh and the country. Thank you. Karen
April 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We loved the tour! Our guide, Robert, was very kind and informative; provided interesting facts and trivia about the history of the areas we visited along with informing us of places that had even been featured in movies and tv shows! We were very happy to take photos and ask questions about the areas, wildlife and historical locations. We’re definitely returning and recommending your company to anyone we know who would be interested in traveling to Scotland. Anonymous
April 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
This was our third time traveling with Discover Scotland Tours. It was a special day for us as it was my birthday and Scott made it memorable with his energy, humor, and enthusiasm. Each location we visited was scenic and we had enough time to explore the locations and take photos. Scott told us several interesting facts about the highlands and Scottish culture. We enjoyed Scottish music throughout the trip. Especially the “I would walk 500 Miles” song, the whole bus was singing and enjoying the song. Loch Ness Ferry was a unique and scenic experience. I enjoyed the food at the restaurant that Scott recommended. Thanks a lot for an amazing experience and we look forward to booking our next trip soon. Chinmay
April 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour was a beautiful experience! Our Tour Leader, Collin, was very funny and approachable, and we learned a lot about Scotland and Scottish culture and history. Collin made sure to let us know in advance when and where we would stop, and made recommendations for each location! The atmosphere in the van was great and relaxing, and the music was lovely! Nothing negative to add, overall a very enjoyable experience, and I would definitely recommend this tour! Eleanora
April 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I just wanted to pass on how much I enjoyed the the tour I took with your company. I thought it was well planned and covered a lot of ground. The scenery was breathtaking and it was a relaxing, enjoyable experience. The tour guide, I believe his name was Billy, was awesome. He was knowledgeable and friendly and wanted to make our experience as great as it could be. He made sure each of us was happy and was an enchanting host and a very good driver. Koodoos to this company for a very good tour. Debbie
April 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I took the Glenfinnan, Mallaig and Glencoe tour. This tour was a great option as I only had one day to visit, and I was happy to see many sights which for the time we had, was very impressive. My tour guide Karen was fantastic! Very funny, knowledgable and made us feel welcome from the start and throughout. Despite the tours schedule and intensity which was to be expected of course, she did not make us feel rushed and made sure we had time at the photo stops of which were extra special, and also regularly checked our comfort. Thank you Discover Scotland, I plan on booking the Stirling and Loch Ness tours when I can in the future. Eleanor
April 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I would like to give a very positive review on Dave, today’s tour guide for the Orban,Western highlands trip from Glasgow. He was absolutely brilliant! Huge amont of information , history, music, superb sense of humour, kindness. He went out of his way to please us and even wrote some ideas for future trips in Highland. Thank you ever so much. Barbara

Gary was great and really made it a special day we will always remember! More importantly we would recommend your company and Gary without hesitation. Thank you again for making it speak and easy. Barry & Judy
April 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Thank you for your very good service, you guys managed all our questions and requests very efficiently and always provided solutions. The tour guide, Michael, was fantastic. He explained many things and it didn’t feel like it was too much at any time. He was funny, kind, and had great sense of humor, which made everything even better. The tour has great pace, everything was done on time, and we absolutely loved it. Marisol
April 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
All good things deserve to be appreciated, so from picking up me from Edinburgh to dropping me back at Edinburgh, everything was fabulous. Though I was in a solo trip, I never felt alone. My co-travellers were so nice but there is a person who made it all amazing-yes Steve! He is just a gem of a person. He made us all so comfortable, explained everything he could, took us to exciting places, told us about histories and mythologies, safely taken drew us to each of the destinations, suggested about food places and must tries with honest reviews, took pictures for us, bought carrot by himself to feed highland cows and above all he planned trip so well, everything was on time and ensured it will go according to the plan. I had the best experience and I’m so grateful, content and satisfied with my trip and I made the right choice to travel with you. Steve is amazing and he deserves all the appreciation. I got to know about Discover Scotland from a friend of mine at university. He showed me the website, I went through it and booked without a second thought. I was really in need of a break from everything, so I don’t want to plan anything myself- I wanted someone to take me to every beautiful places and guide me. You guys did it so well and Steve deserve all the appreciation. It was so safe and nice to travel with you. I have already referred you to my friends who enquired about the trip seeing my social media stories and I’ll keep on doing it. Because I had the best experience and hope they’ll be having too.

We had a truly lovely time on our tour! It was amazing. Our tour leader was so engaging—he was funny, informative, and easy to ask questions to. We will all miss him. We loved each stop and felt like we had enough time at each location. Our guide had great recommendations for each stop that ensured we got the most out of our time. This experience has shown us how amazing tours of this style can be & we are all so excited to come back for another tour and find similar tours wherever we travel. Thank you for an amazing time, Delani, Shelby & Kat
April 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We want to thank you for providing a top notch experience for us. Besides having the perfect guide with Stuart being the ultimate expert guide having lived on Skye, we somehow got perfect sunny weather the entire trip! We were also lucky to have a very small group tour with lovely people. We can’t say enough about how great Stuart treated us, how friendly, kind and funny he is and our relief to also find he was an expert driver with inside knowledge of how and when to go to each of the many sites. We enjoyed his company as much as the beautiful Scotland countryside. We would highly recommend this tour and your tour company! We were also pleased with the B&B accommodations and hosts at Dunedin. . Thank you again for a fabulous tour that was a most memorable part of our travels. Deb & Doug
March 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We passed by the Kelpies and got to take a picture with them, we passed a little by Stirling Castle (this is probably the only extra thing we would’ve wanted to check out on the same day, but I realize that it isn’t possible in such a short timeframe.). Glencoe, Fort Williams, all the landscapes we saw on our way to the Glenfinnan Viaduct were all amazing and we took some great photos. And of course, the Glenfinnan Viaduct was also great and it satisfied the inner Harry Potter geek. Frank was an amazing tour leader and everytime we passed something, he was always on point with historical information and fun facts. We absolutely loved to listen to him and engage with different conversations. A very careful driver as well, I might say, never rushed. We felt very safe on our travel route with him. He paid attention to details, offered to help us with the photos as well, just absolutely lovely. 10/10 would recommend the tour itself and Frank as the tour leader 🙂 Arina & Basil
March 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I had a really good time on the tour! Marco our guide was very friendly and was very accommodating and informative. I learned a lot of Scottish history from him. The tour was also perfect and not too tiring and allowed me to see more of Scotland. Laurence
March 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I would like to say that I throughly enjoyed my tour with Discover Scotland Tours and looking back on the experience, I would dedicate the “success” of my tour on a number of things. Firstly, the tour guide was amazing! James was my tour guide and he is amazing! His high energy, wealth of knowledge and just personality overall made the tour so enjoyable. When I visit Edinburgh again, I will look to see what yours James is conducting and if it isn’t the Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles tour, I will be sure to book! Secondly, I loved that the group was small. Well in general, a 16 person max group was one the reasons I booked with Discover Scotland Tours and to find out that there were two others including myself, made for an amazing and intimate experience. When I go back to the states and when I hear about anyone coming to Scotland, I will be sure to recommend your tour company because it was seamless to schedule, your tours are packed with information and history, and it’s just an amazing experience! Brandon
March 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
The trip was amazing. I want to write a big compliment and thank you to our guide John! He made that day so special (besides the stunning landscape of course) with his humor and his knowledge. Both seemed to be endlessly 😊 he also was always a sunshine – even though the fog never disappeared. We will definitely recommend your tour! Sandra
March 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
My boyfriend and I took a once in a lifetime trip and I am so glad we decided to do this tour. We took the Sterling Castle, Loch Lomond, and Kelpies tour with Marco as our guide. Marco was so great with all the history, the music, and conversation. If you are even just thinking about going on this tour DO IT, and cross your fingers you end up with Marco. Alane.
March 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour was SUPERB. I really enjoyed every single location we visited with such breathtaking views and lots of history behind. The tour guide, John, was extremely professional and friendly. He provided lots of information on the places we visited and a really enjoyable soundtrack to our journey. He also managed to create the right atmosphere among those participating in the tour…who were just strangers a few hours ago. I am really thankful for all this. Excellent value for money. Please, keep on providing this experience!! Carles
March 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
My friends and I had a wonderful time on the trip, everything was organized perfectly, and the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Everything was timed perfectly and our tour guide was very helpful at all the stops, helped us get to the viewpoints that were a bit harder to reach, and gave us great recommendations. He was very accommodating towards the end and made sure everyone was able to get to the right stop and avoid the rain as much as possible. If we had more time, we would have booked the other 3 trips your company offers as well. We all had an amazing time, and bonus points for our great tour guide! 🙂 Nora
March 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We would rate our tour and tour guide a 12 out of ten if we could. John was a great guide who was knowledgeable, funny and aimed to please. We loved the tour and without him sharing his expertise it wouldn’t have meant as much. John was also very compassionate as my wife suffered a severe migraine attack on the way back. He went out of his way to assist in her comfort.
I will definitely recommend your tour company to anyone and already have to friends that are coming to Scotland in May this year. Thank You, Doug.
March 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Our day with Gary was fantastic! I wouldn’t change a thing. We had an absolute blast and would definitely book another tour with this company for our next trip. He’s a fantastic tour guide and lovely man who was making me laugh the whole time – couldn’t have asked for a nicer guide. I can only say positive things about our tour and am very grateful for the amazing day we had. Thank you again! Claudia
March 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highland & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
This was just the most wonderful experience and I would like to commend you and Jerry (our tour guide) on what will likely be the absolute highlight of our trip to the UK (we still have a little while here but you’re going to be hard to beat!) A million thank you’s for this experience. It was all round amazing, from every annoying enquiry I sent last minute to the office, through to the on-the-ground offering. The carefully researched commentary, lovely bus, caring on time guest service levels provided by Jerry and well, the scenery -though not your making 🙂 – was next level heavenly. I cannot recommend your tour more highly! Warm regards, Helen and Whitney-May
March 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highland & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We LOVED our tour with Discover Scotland! Our guide Michael was amazing we could not have ask for anyone better. We enjoyed our whole trip from the bus rides hearing stories, history, songs and much more about Scotland, to our quick picture stops, all our longer spots where we had time to explore, and our free time in Kyleakin. We felt like our interests were heard by our guide and we were given options and suggestions to do things we would enjoy. The only thing we wished we could change was staying longer. We are very thankful for our guide and discover scotland for everything. Thanks for everything, Taylor
February 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel

February 2023 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
John was a fantastic, welcoming and informative guide. What a great tour – we saw so many beautiful places and learned so much about Scottish history. Thank you John for welcoming my family and I to Discover Scotland Tours! Kiera
February 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We had the most wonderful time and Frank was the most lovely guide, telling us about the history of all places we passed and even putting in an extra stop specifically so we could see highland cows up close. The trip was fantastic, not just because of the beautiful landscapes but because of the group and guide. This was easily the best thing we did in Scotland, we cannot recommend going enough. Thank you very much! Leoni, Javiera and Anna
February 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I just wished to relay the entire group’s joy and gratitude at providing such a wonderful and memorable experience. Dave has been a hilarious, friendly, extremely informative and wholesome guide. As an ardent lover of all things music and history, besides taking in the beauty of all the Lochs, Mountains, pleasant winds and the mesmerising expanse of the highlands and the sea, the (carefully curated?) playlist and commentary that accompanied it really enhanced the overall experience and we definitely see ourselves coming for more in the future years. Sarah
February 2023 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
It was indeed one of the best tours I have experienced so far. We joined the group as a family of three and it was an amazing trip for all of us. The best part of the tour was our Group Leader Gary who made the trip very informative, engaging and full of entertainment. I would like to extend our gratitude to the team of Discover Scotland and especially to Gary for being so wonderful. Asif
January 2023 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had a great day and our tour guide was great. Very knowledgeable about the area and the history. I would like to thank you for still going ahead with the tour even though we were the only two people on the tour. It felt like our very own private tour and it was an amazing day. Amy
January 2023 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
My family (it was my wife, kids and myself) truly enjoyed the tour. John was exceptionally and impressively good.. Really shows he loves his job coz the day really flew in his company and the information he was sharing with us was really interesting and entertaining at the same time. The van was also really comfortable and the fact it was not a big group helped. We also really enjoyed the places we visited.. We will certainly be back in Scotland soon. So well done and keep it up!!! Roland
January 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
If you’re in search of the ultimate Scottish Highlands tour, look no further than ‘Discover Scotland Tours’! We were lucky to have Frank as our guide for the day. Not only does he have a wealth of knowledge and experience under his belt, but he also has a knack for finding those hidden gems that make for truly breath-taking photos. Plus, his personal recommendations for the places we visited were spot on and really added to the overall experience. Frank’s attention to detail was unparalleled. He made sure everything went according to plan and his schedule was perfectly executed, allowing us to make the most of our time in the Highlands. In addition to all of this, Frank made sure that our coach was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed, including chargers and air conditioning. And as if that wasn’t enough, he even treated us to some beautiful music from Scottish artists during the tour. Overall, Discover Scotland Tours is the perfect family-owned company for anyone looking to fully immerse themselves in the stunning beauty of Scotland. Frank’s expertise and dedication to making the trip a memorable one truly set him apart. Thank you for an unforgettable experience. It was the highlight of our trip to Scotland and has given us lots of memories and beautiful photographs that we will cherish!
January 2023 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Despite being unfortunate with the weather on the day, we really enjoyed the tour of Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands. Our guide Stuart was very knowledgeable, friendly, and provided lots of information during the tour. There was plenty of stops along the way to get out and take photos of the fantastic views around us. We booked the cruise around Loch Ness which was a great experience before getting back on the bus to continue the trip. We look forward to booking another tour for the next time we are back in Scotland. Sam
January 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I had such a great time on the tour! It was my birthday and I couldn’t spend it any better, genuinely one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! There were only 3 people on our tour and I think the small number really made the experience, we got to bond for the whole day (Even though we didn’t know each other before) and had more time to visit several sites, we also had the weather on our side (somehow it only started raining only whenever we got back in the van!). My favourite part of the tour was the Loch Lomond stop that we did first thing in the morning. We managed to catch the early sunrise and the place was pretty empty, it was truly beautiful! Our guide told us that the stop wasn’t always included but I think that was one of the highlights of the trip. Also absolutely love Conan’s Kirk, I think it’s a definite must, it’s such a lovely little place with a lot of history and a beautiful lake in front (all 3 of us wanted to stay there forever)! Just wanted to say thank you to the whole company for such a perfect trip, everyone’s amazing, really friendly and warm. Especially thanks to our guide Colin, who’s been a great friend and took care of the 3 of us throughout the whole trip 🙂 He was really lovely, understood each of our needs and was generally an absolute pleasure to get to know, he also drove really well and we had such a good time chatting away in the van (please give him 10 stars from me!) and still picked us up from the station even though there were only 3 of us. I would def recommend it to a friend and would def come back to the highlands with Discover Scotland! Florencia
January 2023 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Please be advised that we took a tour with John on January 12 and had a great time. John is a very interesting person and kept us abreast of everything that we were seeing .He has a lot of information which he shares with his passengers and made the tour very interesting! He is also very friendly and put all his passengers at ease . I commend your company for having such a great tour guide! Frank
December 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
My husband and I want to say great thanks for the amazing service and the tour your team provide. We enjoy it a lot. Here are some aspects we enjoy a lot, and we hope the feedback could be helpful for you. Firstly, we want to say great thanks to our driver as well as the tour guide. He is so responsible, caring and humorous. He has an amazing knowledge of Scottish history and the highlands, as well as a passion for the environment and cultures. We really enjoy his guidance and appreciate his passion and responsible working ethic. The second thing is about the routine is well-organised. The music playlist is amazing as well. We love it! We are really glad that we book your day trip and we will definitely come back again and introduce your team to other family and friends! Brendan and Janet
December 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
I picked Discover Scotland off google after getting the vibe from the website that it was a small business and not a big chain. We wanted something personal with a tour guide who cared about their group and that’s what we got!! He had a lot of patience as many in our group weren’t following his timings making us late quite a few times!! His knowledge of Scotland history was super vast and we learnt a lot from his commentary along the tour and he was also super warm and friendly! Tour was awesome and covers a heap of ground in one day! Don’t think you could realistically fit any more in it’s already a huge day! We came all the way from New Zealand and felt with this tour we got to see a large amount of Scotland that we wouldn’t have seen without Discover Scotland! Would definitely recommend as a tour company to friends travelling in future! Thanks for a great day! ☺️Alice
December 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We had a marvellous trip to the Highlands. Everything went perfectly thanks to Frank who kept us updated along the way on timing and what to expect next. Frank knows his stuff and has a lovely gentleman manner. He is an excellent tour guide and we felt very comfortable and safe in his good hands. Thank you for making our trip memorable!! We will cherish them. Cheryl & Davinder
December 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Mallaig
Our trip was fantastic! We had a really good day and John our driver made it extra special with his knowledge and patter. Just what we needed coming back home from Australia after 14 yrs. Already recommended it to family & friends and told them to ask for John as their driver. Eleanor
December 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We had a lovely trip and our tour with you was one of the highlights of the trip! Our tour guide John Sheedy was amazing, he was informative and you could tell how much he loves Scotland and sharing its beauty with us! The only thing I am bummed about is that I did not book more than 1 tour on this trip! Next time we come, we will be sure to book more tours! Amanda
December 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Thank you for an amazing experience we had with you. A big shout out to Karen our tour leader. It could not have been better, I would definitely suggest all of my friends who are planning to visit Scotland. Karen was amazing, funny, detailed and thorough about everything, the entire tour was really comfortable and enjoyable. Thanks again for the experience. Mohammed
December 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
I booked this tour for myself, brother and husband and we absolutely loved it! John Black our tour guide was amazing; funny, informative and always going that extra mile to ensure all of us got the most out of our tour. John kept us incredibly safe on the road whilst driving through the snowy highland roads on day one, and ensured each guest was dropped at a convenient location at the end of the tour. The itinerary of this tour was fantastic and really showcased Skye. A real highlight for us all were the Fairy Pools and Fairy Glen! Our accommodation in Skye with David couldn’t have been better and we had a lovely two nights stay. We found Discover Scotland tours through a basic Web search on Google and our definitive factor in booking was that accommodation could all be organised by the company. Thank you for this tour; for my brother and I, seeing parts of Scotland properly for the first time as we now live in Australia was amazing. Olivia
December 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
It is safe to say that all credit goes to our driver-guide, Stuart, who was jovial, humorous, and professional from the get-go. Even though we ended up being a small tour group, Stuart never skimped on the stories and jokes on the ride. A seasoned driver familiar with the highlands, he also took us through some shortcuts that would definitely have felt unsafe if not for his driving. We went to as many sights as was possible during the short daylight hours in early winter, which is quite a real feat. With a wee bit of help from the weather (we went right before it snowed), we were given ample time to walk/hike around certain places to take in their vast beauty, such as the Fairy Pools, Loch Ness, and Glenfinnan. And of course, the shorter stops like Ben Nevis and Five Sisters were equally stunning. Everything we saw felt like a feast for our eyes and souls. I only wished we took a photo with Stuart (but he is in many of our videos!). Many thanks also go to our b&b host, Fiona, for offering a warm place, a big breakfast, and her own stories. Yee Win
November 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
As I did the tour with my parents, which were visiting me here in Edinburgh and never have been to Scotland before, I wanted to take them on a versatile tour that shows them all of the beauty Scotland has to offer. The Glenfinnan & Highlands Tour was the best choice I could’ve made, as it captured a broad extent of what Scotland has to offer. Especially our tour guide, James, was the best person we could’ve wished for. My parents don’t speak English very well and he tried to talk slowly and understandable while being extremely polite and attentive to all the needs of the people on the coach. I’ve been to a few Scotland tours before, but this one was the absolute best. Especially because it was only a group of ca. 14 people attending the trip, which made the whole experience way more familiar. The stories and information James had to offer were impressive and he was able to find a perfect combination of speaking and letting us admire the views at all times. Even though the Jacobite steam train wasn’t operating at that time, the experience was impressive nonetheless. Especially because our tour guide made a few extra stops to show us as much as possible. I will definitely book another tour at Discover Scotland Tours and can’t stress enough what an amazing day this has been. I’m very glad I found the website randomly while searching for Scotland tours from Edinburgh. Pauline, Liane, Andreas.
November 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Loved your tour and so happy I attended. Buses were clean and modern. Locations were excellent. Driver was knowledgeable, humorous and most of all, very safe. I had a wonderful time ans would highly recommend your tour. Beatrice.
November 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
We very much enjoyed our tour. Everything was on time with ample of time for sightseeing at each location. Our driver/tour guide was excellent – courteous, personable, witty and knowledgeable. Absolutely no complaints or suggestions. Robert
November 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We absolutely loved the trip and everything about it. Firstly, Scott was brilliant , fabulous personality that made it fun yet very very informative too. The music on the bus was great and really made it feel very ‘Scottish’ and very appropriate to the places we visited. It was a very well balanced trip with lots of stops , including a couple of extra ones that Scott managed to fit in. Loved everywhere we visited and we were very lucky with the weather which obviously helped. The bus was very comfortable too with lovely big windows. We have been on many trips around the world and have been crammed on vehicles of similar size but with tiny windows and low roof so very poor visibility. I’m so pleased the visibility on your vehicle was great. The cost of the trip offered great value for money and we do plan on returning to Glasgow and when we do we will try and incorporate the longer 3 day tour to Skye that you do. I would definitely recommend your company to friends and family. Claire
November 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I had a wonderful time with Discover Scotland Tours. We had an amazing tour guide also our driver named Jerry! The tour had plenty of photographic stops from day 1. Driving through the Highlands into the Isle of Skye and to Loch ness the group and I could feel the magic Scottish atmosphere. Thank you Jerry for taking care of every single one of us and thank you Discover Scotland Tours for this fantastic experience. Sergio
October 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had the best day ever! The time of my life really! Thanks to James our tour guide who was the best we could ever ask for! We loved the amazing stories he told us making the tour even more magical! James is a great storyteller, and a great person too! Funny, helpful and made us feel like home! It was our first time in Scotland, so we were very excited for this trip, because we waited 2 years due to the pandemic to travel, and the tour day was my favourite day of the hole week in Scotland, it was beyond anything I ever dreamed! Mindblowing! We will come back to Scotland to take another tour next time for sure, because we fell in love with the Highlands! The Glenfinnan viaduct was the best! I was tearful all the time, a true Potterhead drunk with happiness! 🙂 Very magical seeing the viaduct and the train (again crying the hole time)! I dreamed with that day for more than 20 years..so it was really special and the memories will stay close to my heart for the rest of my life! From my heart, thanks especially to James, I know driving the hole day can be hard in those conditions raining all day, but he kept his light spirit and humor all the way, just great, providing us with the best day ever! Laura and Alex
October 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I would love to talk about our experience because it was beyond our expectations. First of all, our tour leader was awesome. He was really funny. He told us many important things about the places during the journey. I forgot his name and I am so sorry for that. Maybe you can check the driver`s name on that day and thank him on our behalf. The journey was well planned. We never got bored because we stopped at many well chosen places. The view was incredibly impressive at all the places we stopped for a break. The coach was also very comfortable. I am surprised to hear that you are a small family company because it looked like a really professional travel company to us. This tour was the best thing we did until now and we will definitely do it again with you in the future. We have already decided to take a 3 or 4 day tour next time. We are really excited for it. It is worth every penny and I already told my friends and family about how beautiful it was and told them they should book a tour if they ever have a chance. Thank you so much for everything. I guess Discover Scotland Tours will become our way of travelling for me and my husband until we book every tour you have 🙂 See you next time! Melisa
October 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Wow is all I can say! It was absolutely fantastic- saw so much of the highlands and Locke’s ! Scott , our tour guide was just the best- funny, gave us so much interesting history- I will be coming again to see Oban 😁 Thankyou so much at least 10 stars🤩🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Anita & Nicky
October 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Our tour guide, James, was amazing. There was a wide range of ages within the group of eleven and he maneuvered through all questions so so well. His driving was very safe, I even fell asleep on the way home (in no way because I was bored!) His directions and times to return to the bus were very clear. Over all I would recommend this tour to anyone looking to have a very comfortable, easy day getting pictures and learning about the country! Willow
October 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Let me start by saying that the trip (and Gary) made our day! I went on the day trip to glencoe and Mallaig and glenfinnan with my brother and what an amazing experience!!! As amazing as the places were , Gary made them even more interesting and (funny!). He took extra care of all those on the tour. Must do for any HARRY POTTER FAN OUT THERE!! The trip did cover a lot of places but did not feel cramped or hurried at all. I would definitely recommend them for being so punctual, informative and freaking awesome 😎 Shilpi.
October 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
The day tour from Glasgow to the Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig and Glencoe was a spectacular journey. Our local guide, Dave was thoughtful and caring as well as entertaining and informative. Dave did his best to arrange the stops in concert with the sunny breaks so we’d enjoy them and get the best photos possible. It was the easiest day of our holiday as everything was taken care of for us! Funny thing was, I’d seen a number of recommendations by travel vloggers to go to Mallaig by rail and that had been my plan but for the ScotRail strike. We ultimately lucked out because the seats were more comfortable, we got music, colour commentary and weren’t stuck in a train for 5 hours each way…that plus fantastic pictures. Kathleen.
October 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Scott – our tour guide was very knowledgeable, flexible and entertaining. He was the best tour guide we have ever had. The bus was comfortable. I would highly recommend this tour to all. Frank
October 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I was traveling solo for 10 days in Scotland, and booking this tour was one of the best decisions I made. It was great to be able to sit back and enjoy the magnificent scenery while Stuart regaled us with tales of history and geography and his own very interesting life story. He had just the right amount of patter mixed with Scottish tunes. The day was very well paced, with ample time for photos, touring, shopping and eating. Highly recommend!! Amy
October 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had an amazing time! John our guide was perfect! I can’t say enough good things about him! He obviously loves his job and the island. I appreciated how you kept in touch with me leading up to the tour and how responsive and clearly you answered my questions. I will most definitely recommend John Black and your company to everyone willing to hear me go on about what an amazing experience we had. Thank you for everything and with some luck we will be making more plans with your company. Vanessa
October 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
The trip was fantastic! The Scotland views are stunning. In addition, we were such lucky for having two sunny days, making it even more beautiful. Scott, our guide, was incredible with us. He drove us to awesome places and was always in a good mood throughout the trip. Always patient with our time for pictures and relaxation. He is so funny. His playlist was amazing as well. I enjoyed the support on the live chat. It was so helpful. Furthermore, your support to book our accommodation is something that I appreciated a lot as well. Thank you for this fantastic time in Scotland, Scott and Discover Scotland Tours! Magda
September 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had long dreamed of Glennfinnan and Glencoe, little did we know the spectacular fascination that would await us. James brought every destination to life far beyond even our most hopeful expectation. From the very beginning he made us feel right at home. The journey to each place was filled with folklore and history to rival even the most studied expert. Captivating Scottish music played thoughtfully to accompany the places of most significance. We truly felt like we were walking in the footsteps of these historical characters. James careful driving and kind safety reminders ensured we reached our destination soundly. He knew to plan ahead as well since we arrived the first tour bus in each location-affording plenty of time to get ourselves comfortable and scope out the best view. We enjoyed splendid conversation along the way as James related tidbits of the culture, local suggestions and personal anecdotes. It was evident James truly loves his job, making this a tour unlike any other. 100% RECOMMEND WHOLEHEARTEDLY! Vanessa
September 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
My husband Bill Barron and I had a fabulous day on the Discover Scotland Tours with Marco as our guide. His local knowledge, enthusiasm, and care for the tour participants was extraordinary. The day was well organized and the sites and experiences as promised. We loved the extra special insight into Scottish music shared through the trip. Would highly recommend this team!!! Janet
September 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
We had an excellent day out. Michael was very funny and packed in a lot of places to see. So pleased we choose this day out of the city. Countryside was beautiful and worth seeing. Sterling Castle, Lock Lomond, and Kelps. Very enjoyable. Hamish the Highland cow was lovely to see. He was very chilled. Thank you we had a lovely time. Bernie and John
September 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
My Mom and I had an amazing time on our trip, especially with our tour director. He was extremely knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable for our journey. He never made us feel rushed, and gave us plenty of time to ask questions, explore the sites, and take beautiful pictures. We would definitely recommend this to a friend. Meghan

I spent the best day with our guide Gary on this 1-day tour ! The group was really nice and I loved the amount of places we could visit in only 1 day. We had enough time to enjoy every stop. Gary was really caring, remembered all of our names and was very eager to satisfy everyone one the tour, with special stories and really fun moments ! I would recommend this tour to everyone visiting Scotland and wanting to see a lot in little time, Thanks a lot! Mathilde
September 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Colin was wonderful! Knowledgeable about the history, amusing comments, and upbeat and positive throughout. He kept us informed of when we were arriving where, what to expect and get done in a timely fashion, and when to be back to the bus to depart. So there were no surprises, just more time to enjoy the areas. The stops were beautiful, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour! We would definitely recommend others to use your services. Shannon
September 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I had an absolutely amazing time on the western highlands, castle and lochs tour with James. We were able to see so much yet had plenty of time at each stop. Places I would never have been able to see if I didn’t take the tour and James even added extra stops to see Sterling castle and to see the Forth bridges. The highlands are so beautiful. The castle at Inveraray was magnificent and James was so knowledgeable and made our trip so much fun. Big thanks to James and the team at Discover Scotland tours. Suad
September 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
The tour in Glasgow was the best we had over our 12 days cruise. Our guide Michael was so nice, funny, professional and knowledgeable. We highly recommend your tour to anyone visiting Scotland.. Thanks Michael for us. He is such a wonderful person to talk to. It was great to listening to all the stories he told us. And his music choice was lovely. Roger and Johanne
September 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
On the day of travel it was easy to find the minibus at the bus station. The minibus holds 16 people although our group was only 10. The driver/guide Karen was brilliant, she is extremely friendly and she kept us entertained all day with lots of facts and very amusing stories about the areas we travelled through. You can do an optional boat trip of Loch Lomond which Karen sorted out on our behalf and booked the tickets. We visited a couple of villages, one for morning refreshments and one for lunch with plenty of advice on food opportunities. Last stop of the day was Stirling Castle, with the town to explore for those who didn’t want to visit the castle. Most of the day was driving through extremely scenic countryside and I thoroughly enjoyed my day (despite the changeable weather!). I definitely want to return to Glasgow and I wouldn’t hesitate to book another trip through Discover Scotland. Julie
September 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
The trip to Glenfinnan Mallaig and Glencoe was the highlight of my trip to Scotland. Our tour leader was cheery, knowledgeable, and absolutely the best. We managed to cover all the promised spots and had an extra stop at Hagrid’s cabin. In fact, I find myself advertising your trip to all my friends back home 🙂 Soumyadeep
September 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
The tour was excellent – Colin was superb! He had so many stories to tell us about the things we were seeing and also his knowledge of history and Scottish culture was great. The only thing I can say is keep Colin! He is great! 😊Lydia
September 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I want to say that my sister and I totally enjoyed the Discover Scotland tour to Oban and the Western Highlands. Karen was our driver and tour leader and she was the best. Friendly and knowledgeable with a wonderful sense of humor. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you and Karen for a tour we will never forget. Lorraine
September 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Our journey started with a very friendly welcome from John Black. The scenery was amazing and the entertainment along the way from John was excellent. He even had a great range of Scottish music to accompany us. We loved Oban and tried the fish restaurant recommended by John which was excellent. It was a long day with plenty of things to see along the way. We would recommend this tour to anyone and the fact it is only a 16 seater bus made it more personal. We are hoping to return to Scotland again and will definitely be booking another trip. We love the idea of going to Skye for 3 to 4 days and being shown all the sights by an expert. Give John a bonus – he deserves it!!!!!! Sandra & Paul
September 2022 – Isle of Skye Private Tour
I am writing in to tell you how wonderful our time with Colin was this week. He was knowledgeable and really made our trip special. He anticipated everything we needed before we even knew we needed it. Every recommendation he made for shops or restaurants were perfect for us. We were able to get to attractions so fast with the private tour and loved not having to wait on anyone, that’s why we do private :). He was early for pick up, helpful with anything we needed, and along the way made us laugh. My mother, sister and I have been wanting to do a trip together for so long and finally made it happen. If it wasn’t for your quick responses and Colin, it would not have been as special. We had the absolute best time. Please pass along our gratitude to Colin. Thank you again, Claire
September 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Our tour was fantastic With Jerry as our guide! He had a wealth of knowledge, great jokes and really knew how to engage all of us. He made the trip so much fun and we didn’t know what to expect next. The quiz bowl, Scottish music, karaoke sing along, props for taking pictures, the books on Scotland he passed around and his delightful stories made your beautiful country come alive!
The sights along the way were amazing and it’s difficult to choose our favorite one. The minibus was comfortable. We give 5 stars to Jerry and your company!! Sincerely George and Vera
September 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Our tour to Skye was above and beyond expectations even if the weather on Skye didn’t fully cooperate. Our tour driver and guide John Sheedy set the tone for the trip with his local knowledge, humor and knowledge and expert driving. He took extra good care of us, even making sure there was a taxi waiting for us at the end of the tour. Our accommodations at Kyleside 16 was top-notch. Agnes is a lovely accommodating host with a super clean, comfortable room and a delicious breakfast to start the day. We have had a wonderful holiday in Scotland and the Discover Tour to Skye was the icing on the cake. Thanks again for a lovely time. Brian and Carol Anne
September 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My husband and I joined the 3 day Isle of Skye, the Highlands and the Loch Ness tour. From beginning to the very end, it surpassed our expectations. Michael was our driver and his passion for Scotland, his knowledge of Scottish history and sense of humor kept everyone engaged. He went out of his way to connect with his passengers. His timing is perfect for story telling as well as keeping to the agenda of the day. We had ample time at each spot. We saw areas that we would not have seen on our own if we had rented a car. Michael played music that was always turned on at just the right time and often had a story that went with it. He also had visual cards to match his stories, an excellent addition! Besides historical facts of Scotland, Michael introduced us to local lure as well. We would be remiss if we did not mention his driving skills. The Highland roads are narrow, windy and hilly…a few even being a one lane road…..Michael drove the bus with precision and expert skill. If was as if he could anticipate the next curve in the road. Everyone felt safe and secure at all times. We had a wonderful stay at the BB that “Discover Scotland” booked for us. The Mo Dhachaidh, was slightly out of town and the owners, Greta and Andrew, were welcoming and so “down to earth.” The walk to the restaurants was part of the charm. We found “Discover Scotland” on Trip Advisor and we would highly recommend them. It was a wonderful trip all around! Doreen and Bill
September 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Hello.. We really enjoyed this tour! The itinerary was well planned and John, our guide was great. He was we’ll informed, thoughtful, considerate and lots of fun. He incorporated lots of humor into the historical facts. The customers who joined us on the tour were very diverse and a mixed age group which kept things interesting as well. A small group of 14 is the best!! We all got along well. The Highlands scenery is breathtaking and we were so lucky to have very little rain. Every place we visited had it’s own history and charm. I would highly recommend this trip especially if you have limited time and would prefer not to drive. Those roads can be a challenge! We located Discover Scotland tours while doing a Google search. I was impressed by the positive reviews and it’s my preference to use local companies when I travel. Everything about this tour was easy and care free from the start. I appreciated your offer to book our accomodations and the Winkle Beach B&B was delightful. I found this tour to be a good value.. nothing about it will disappoint! Marie
August 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I took part of Glenfinnan Viaduct & the Highlands Tour on Tuesday 16th and I wanna use just one word to review it: INCREDIBLE. Amazing places, well planned route and, most important of all, Frank, our incredible tour leader. He was so polite and kind with everyone. He told us several curiosities about Scotland and the Highlands, always smiling and with a good mood. He knows everything about these lands and it was a pleasure listening to his anecdotes and curious facts. Luckily I found this tour surfing on the web, my holidays in Scotland wouldn’t be so special so far. Thank you for the amazing experience – unmissable not only for fans of Harry Potter. Fabio
August 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We were 4 people with different expectations to the trip. They were all met. Beautiful nature, storytelling from Scotland and wonderful Harry Potter memories put into life. The bus was very comfortable and the driver very kind and helpful. The driver was also the guide and provided us with useful information and he was a wonderful storyteller. The trip is warmly recommended. Tori
August 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
The tour was absolutely wonderful, we saw the beautiful landscapes of the highlands and our tour guide James was very friendly and he knew a lot about the History of Scotland. It was a beautiful day, thank you so much! Emma
August 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
I took the Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle tour yesterday with Frank, and it was delightful!!! I had such a great time and Frank was great with his explanations and pointing out sights along the way. It was easy to find him after the tours and his getting our cruise tickets so we didn’t have to wait in line was very nice. The town we stopped in for lunch was a great break! Liz
August 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Our tour “Glens, Lochs and Castles” was really amazing. Our driver/guide Marco was really fabulous: he showed us the most spectacular views, let us time to stroll around and take photos and enjoy the landscape, entertained us with historical information, curiosities and funny stories and even chose a special playlist fit for the places we were going to visit! We really enjoyed every single stop. The minibus was so comfortable! Marco drove really very well and as the weather at the beginning of the trip was a bit rainy also apologized for it…but we were lucky and it stopped. Daniela
August 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We arrived earlier than the expected time and Nick our guide was already there. He was friendly and very informative the entire drive. He made the tour feel very personal. The sights were all beautiful and there were plenty of potty and snack breaks. Every stop he gave us plenty of time for photos and interesting trivia. We got back right on time. Highly recommend! Thank you, Hazel
August 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
While at the world Soil Science Congress in Glasgow, I decided to savour a bit of Scotland. I have taken many tours in many countries, but the trip to Glencoe and the Highlands was one of the best I have experienced, and excellent value for money. I hope to bring my wife on my next trip to Scotland and take the same your again. I want her to experience what I experienced. I want to savour it again. The driver/tour guide Garry was in a class of his own, and simply the best. He was efficient, informative, cheerful…a real barrel of laughs. Even on the way back after a long day, he led a group sing-along. With his Scottish outfit, he really fitted the part. When I left him and the very congenial, mainly young people from Pakistan and the US, I felt a tinge of sadness after such a lovely day. Your company is to be complimented with such quality tours. Thank you again. John
August 2022 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had a great day and fitted so much in. Your driver Frank was cheery, professional, very helpful and knowledgeable. As a Scot I enjoyed it very much and so did the lovely people we met on the bus from all over the world. I would highly recommend your tours to Scots as well as world travellers and I will be booking with you again in the future. Carola
August 2022 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had a magnificent tour to Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle. Gary’s been a superb guide, provided great information, was funny, and extremely kind. With all best wishes and looking forward to another tour. Cesar
August 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Our experience was, in short, great. Our driver Dave was cheerful, patient and filled with knowledge about Scottish history and nature. He’s an entertainer and a legend as well. The itinerary was nice. Scottish nature is astonishing and even more important – unique. It is true that weather can change quite quickly, but I wouldn’t say that was an issue. We experienced it all, rain and sunshine, and I wouldn’t have changed it one bit. You just have to see it. Taking this tour is one of the best ways to explore Scotland and I couldn’t recommend it more. Leon
August 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We were delighted with our day tour last week. John the driver kept us happy, safe & entertained. We would recommend Discover Scotland to family & friends. Having smaller coaches made the day trip much more personable. Thank you, Gery & Suzanne
August 2022 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
We had a most enjoyable tour on the Isle of Mull and Iona. Our tour guide John Black was friendly, considerate, most knowledgeable and very entertaining. He is a remarkable young man and we were so fortunate to have him as our guide. He truly did his utmost best to accommodate everyone and make everyone feel welcome. We would highly recommend this tour, your company and John to anyone considering a visit to Scotland. Sophie and Joel
August 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We had an amazing time on our tour from start to finish. Colin was a brilliant tour guide, he was very funny and had lots of interesting information. Colin also went above and beyond trying to find ‘hair cops’ for me as I’ve always wanted to see them. The bus itself was very comfortable and clean. The tour was great with loads of stunning view throughout. Oban is a lovely town and was probably my favourite part of the tour. I would recommend your tour company to my friends and family and would even love to come back to do the Loch Ness tour. Sinead
August 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Michael was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable on the history of Scotland. He made the Tour extremely enjoyable. The scenery was absolutely spectacular. Very comfortable 16 seater coach with air conditioning was a bonus. Would highly recommend to family and friends.
August 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Our 3-day Isle of Skye tour with Scott was unforgettable! Despite road closures to start the trip, Scott maintained positivity that radiated throughout the group. Each day brought adventure and memories that we will always cherish. It’s easy to see that Scott loves people and Scotland as he went out of his way to make sure everyone got to see and do what they set out to. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and guide! Kylie + Corbin
August 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My friends and I recently went on the Isle of Skye, Highlands, and Loch Ness 3-day tour from Edinburgh, and it was the highlight of our vacation! Our tour guide, John Black, was quite the character. Throughout the whole trip, he was super cheery and always cracking jokes. His personal anecdotes, vast knowledge, and captivating story-telling provided us with a unique glimpse into the Scottish people, culture, and history. John was extremely accommodating for everyone on the tour, making frequent stops for bathroom breaks and food throughout the day. The bus itself was very comfortable, with AC and plenty of space for everyone, and had great views no matter where one sat. Our accommodation was booked through Discover Scotland as well, at Winklebeech bnb in Kyleakin. It had a quaint and homey vibe, and the owner was super welcoming. She was also extremely accommodating to our dietary restrictions and even offered us some bug spray after seeing all of our midge bites! The rooms were tidy and comfortable, with all the necessities one may need. We managed to hit all the destinations on the tour, and it ran very smoothly with no delays. We were especially in awe with the Isle of Skye- It’s a must-see for everyone who visits Scotland! Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend Discover Scotland Tours and would visit again in a heartbeat! Angelina
August 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
I truly enjoyed the 3 days tour to the Isle of Skye from Glasgow. The van seatings were very comfortable for long distance travels and with usb ports to charge phones and devices. Our tour guide – Collin was exceptional in making us feel entertained and safe on the ride. From the wonderful playlists of music he had put together, feeding the highland cows, and driving very skillfully and safely for us to enjoy the Highland views. I truly want to say thank you to Collin for putting such great effort in creating such memories for all of us on this trip to the highlands. And thank you Discover Scotland for making a trip up to the highlands so accessible and awesome. Will definitely and highly recommend my friends and family to take a tour with Discover Scotland if they ever decide to visit 🙂 Jacqueline
August 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
For me the Tour was excelente in all aspects. The stops are correct: interesting and with Good timings. I had the Best experience and I think it was Thanks to Gary (our guide). He knew perfectly when to explain things and when to let us rest and process all the information. He always made clear what was the plan for the next days, so we knew what to expect. He was super organize with the timings, pick-ups, cruise reservation…. And top of all that he also was funny making us enjoy a great holidays. Thank you for the experience. Anna
August 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
What an amazing time we had!! From the minute Scott picked us up in Edinburgh until we unfortunately had to be dropped off again. The bus was spotlessly clean at all times Scott had a fabulous rapport with everyone on the bus, and made sure he was understood by all passengers. We were given an itinerary everyday. He had good knowledge of the history of the area and his enthusiasm shone through. Our B and B in Broadford was delightful, our hosts, Yvonne and Rob were so welcoming. We would highly recommend you. Sharn.
July 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
Our tour date was 25th July and our driver, John, was a delight. Very informative, easy going and friendly but not too chatty as some guides can be. The tour itinerary was perfect, with just enough breaks to make it relaxing and the highlight of our holiday in Scotland. Will most definitely book again if we are ever in your area again. Caroline
July 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I absolutely loved the tour! It allowed me to get around and see all the sights and more without spending an absolute fortune. I loved that it was a smaller bus/group that meant we could stop for some extra photo spots and take in the beautiful scenery. Our tour guide was awesome, he has an absolute wealth of knowledge and was really easy to get along with, I loved that he knew the ‘better’ more local places to get coffee/food rather than just stopping at the tourist spots along the way and that he could recommend a bunch of places around Scotland. Absolutely loved the tour! Meg
July 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
We had a most enjoyable day on this trip to Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe and Loch Shiel. Our Driver (Frank) was a fountain of knowledge, very accommodating and nothing was a problem for him. All in all I don’t think that anything could be done to improve the experience. Thank you once again. Barry and Anne.
July 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and in particular Frank Mccafferty’s guidance and commentary. The mini bus was clean and in excellent condition. We were provided with adequate bathroom stops and “down time.” The structure of the tour was maintained with enough flexibility to accommodate differences in interests and energy levels among the various participants. There was a nice span of ages of the participants and we were probably the oldest of the group. Thank you and thank Frank for a wonderful experience! Susanne.
July 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I wanted to let you know that your company is FANTASTIC! The tour I took was to the Scottish Highlands with Frank (who was absolutely wonderful!!), and the pacing was fantastic- I never felt like I was in the car too long or that I didn’t get enough time at a stop (I could have happily spent days in the highlands, but now I know to book the longer tour! 😉) To start- the vehicles are VERY comfortable. Easy to get into, more than enough room for each person in their seat, and very clean. Once our tour started, Frank did his introduction and put on his Scottish playlist (love the mix, especially the inclusion of the Bay City Rollers and Lewis Capaldi). He was a fantastic tour leader- he gave a great amount of information, kept us updated on our route and what was coming next, but also gave us time to just relax and watch the view out the windows with some great music. He was also SO SO KIND and took time to connect with each person on the tour- made sure we all got enough time at our desired spots and got all the photos. I even got some photos with his sidekick Heather the highland cow plushie! The actual tour itself was great- the loop was well thought out, there was enough photo stops that it never felt like the car ride was too long, and Frank was more than happy to tell us about each location and it’s history! (It also doesn’t hurt that the view out the windows is absolutely gorgeous!) I am very excited to come back to Scotland and I hope to take a longer tour with your company! I’ve already recommended it to some fellow travelers as well, and I’ll continue to do so ☺️Thank you!!! Jessica
July 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
I thoroughly enjoyed my day tour. I liked that the vehicle was smaller than a coach as it meant less people on board and better manoeuvrability for the driver. I also appreciated that we seemed to arrive at locations just before other tours and crowds which meant we didn’t have to queue too much. The driver was friendly and knowledgeable and gave clear instructions on where to go and what time to be back on the bus. I would definitely recommend your tours. Thank you for a great day. Julia
July 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We really enjoyed our trip, and we absolutely loved our Tour Leader Karen. She made our day really pleasant with her cheerfulness and kindness, and made the whole trip extremely interesting by giving us a lot of interesting information and fan facts about the things we saw. I was actually impressed by how many things she knows! And we also really liked the Scottish music she put in the car! There’s really nothing I could possibly complain about, we spent a beautiful and memorable day. Benedetta
July 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
My husband and I had a wonderful day and Scott our driver guide was fabulous. Yes it was a long day, but it didn’t feel like it as Scott kept us entertained the whole day. The bus was full but still very comfortable. I would not hesitate to recommend Discover Scotland, and ,in fact, we are looking forward to booking again with you on a 3 or 4 day excursion. Julie
July 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
This tour was outstanding. We couldn’t be happier with what we saw and heard. Michael our guide was very knowledgeable and very interesting. He provided background info to all the sites that really helped to better understand Scottish history. The Mercedes 16 passenger van was new and very comfortable. That size is highly recommended as it went were large buses couldn’t go and kept the group size to a better level. The extra touches as a gift bag and water at the start was really appreciated. Don’t miss this tour as it can’t be beat for quality or price. Arwood.
July 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
This excursion was amazing. John, our tour guide made the bus ride so much fun with his sense of humor. He told us all about the history of Scotland which was wonderful. We loved the castle/fort. I would recommend this tour to everyone going there for a visit. Barbara
July 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Everything was perfect! We loved the size of the van, all the locations, and the time spent at each one. However, the what made it even more enjoyable was Karen! Very funny, nice, and helpful. It was simply the best tour we have ever taken. Maria
July 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
John was welcoming and such a genuine happy person. You can see he is not only enjoying his job but he is passionate about his country too. He spoke clearly at all times and sitting at the back of the bus with my husband who has hearing problems we could hear him at all times. The history of Scotland was brilliant. John provided a unique experience and a format I have never had by any guide previously. As well as telling us about Scotland he shared stories of growing up in Glasgow and that of his ancestors along with other folk stories shared through Generations. Alongside these stories we got to hear a fantastic playlist of Scottish song writers, singers and bands. This was like the icing in the cake. I have to say with all the above John was wasn’t talking none stop but when he did speak, we were keen to listen to everything he had to say. Thank you again John for making our trip a one off experience which we believe is gonna be hard to match. Selma & Simon
July 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I absolutely loved the tour! Dave was phenomenal and personable, knowledgeable, funny, just the best! He was quick to answer questions and offer great recommendations on every town, even ones we were just passing through. He even found the hairy coos on the hottest day ever in Scotland! No joke, it broke records. Dave was ever the professional. Honestly, the trip wouldn’t have been the same without him! I wouldn’t change a thing about the trip; it was truly fantastic. Even the other passengers were awesome!! We’re so very glad we used Discover Scotland. It was the best experience! Shannon.
July 2022 – Oban, Western HIghlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Karen was our tour guide and was absolutely wonderful! She was kind, considerate of the needs of her passengers, and had a great sense of humor. We enjoyed having conversations on the side with her to learn more about Scotland and her work as a tour guide. We could also tell how much she enjoyed her job and getting to know new people. My friends and I will highly recommend Karen and the Discover Scotland Tours to our relatives and friends should they travel to Scotland. Thank you for an absolutely amazing experience! Samantha
July 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had a wonderful time and it was through this tour that Scotland came alive for us. Our Tour Leader made a point of getting to know each of us. In between the gorgeous countryside and the historical background Michael provided, he played songs told amusing stories and made it us feel like we were all part of one family. There were lots of stops for the bathroom and food as well. He was patient answering all of our questions and was respectful of the country’s we came from. We loved this tour and will be talking about it for quite some time. Also good value for our money. Roxanne.
July 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We were very happy with our three day tour. This being our first, and probably only trip to Scotland, we appreciated the variety of things we saw and the general information about your country.
We were especially impressed with our tour guide, John Sheedy. In addition to being an all-around nice guy, he was very attentive to everyone’s needs and well prepared with interesting stories. Having grown up on the isle of Skye was a bonus. John conveyed his genuine love and pride of Scotland and made our trip fun and comfortable. Darryl.
July 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Mark and I had THE BEST weekend. It’s my first time in Scotland, and although it was a whirlwind, I’m excited to get back and spend more time in certain places. Accommodation was great, Garry was FANTASTIC. So warm and bubbly and knowledgeable and fun. We’re both quite introverted and I was overwhelmed and missing my children and we never once felt pressured or intruded on, but also Garry made us both feel so seen and included, I was so grateful for how he handled us. Lots of stops, would be good to have a bit more time in some places, but I also really liked ticking lots of things off my list. It was also really relaxing, I slept on the bus all the time – as a parent it was just so lovely to not have to worry about ANYTHING. Garry added a few fun things in that I wasn’t expecting which was so great! Lots of Harry Potter stops! A DINOSAUR FOOTPRINT! I just loved every minute. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I hope you add some northern Scotland tours! Let me know if you do. Jessica
July – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
My tour guide was Michael and he’s one of the best! Considerate, funny , knowledgeable, driver par excellence, patient. This was my first ever trip overseas and my first tour experience, and it couldn’t have been better, thanks largely to Michael. I would recommend you without hesitation. Laura
July – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
We’ve done the 3 day tour from 14 to 16 July, we loved our tour guide, he was a really nice gentleman with so much cultural and historic knowledge, the overall experience was 5*. I will definitely highly recommend this tour to everyone that wants to visit Scotland. The bus was really comfortable aswell. Diana
July 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I am pleased to tell you that I had a marvellous experience. No complaints at all. Enjoyed the whole experience. The accommodation was excellent and the hosts friendly and helpful. Our driver, Stewart, was efficient, cheerful, chatty and supportive of our particular needs. I enjoyed the mixture of age in the group. Everyone was friendly. The itinerary was exciting and commentary good. Stewart was also good at changing plans as necessary according to weather etc. Marion
July 2022 – Isle of Skye 3 Day Private Tour
We very much enjoyed our visit to the Highlands! Michael was a tremendous tour guide. We all appreciated and looked forward to Michael’s stories and commentary on all of our stops. The itinerary included plenty of stops and hiking as we requested. The hike to the Fairy Pools was fantastic! Thank you for all your time and effort and giving us a tour of the Highlands that will not be forgotten! Glenn
June 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
The tour leader, Marco, was brilliant. Really insightful and engaging with everyone on the tour. He gave us a lot of historical background to the places we visited, kept an excellent time frame for our stops and allowed us a few extra photo stops along the way. My wife and I had an amazing time and we will definitely be choosing Discover Scotland Tours for any future day trips we will take. The smaller tour group size worked very well in my opinion and allowed a more personal and unique experience compared to going with a large tour group. We really enjoyed the tour immensely and would like to thank Marco and the whole team for getting the tour organised and having it run so smoothly all day. Cian & Jia Le
June 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
The tour was marvelous, I couldn’t expect more. This was my first time in Scotland and Thanks to John, I’m in love with Scotland. John is amazing and knows what he is doing. He is humble and generous. A true example to say Scottish people are the best in this world. For sure, I am coming back to Scotland very soon and will need your help to know it better. Thank you so much for being a part of my journey and making me fall in love with Scotland. Way to go. Yasha

I had a great time thank you! John, the driver, is like a walking, talking Scottish history book which was great! I asked him if I would see hairy coos on the tour and he took us to see Hamish and Honey which I really appreciated. Thanks for a great day out. Emma
June 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
We went on the Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle and Kelpies Tour with our guide Marco. The tour was fantastic with spectacular views and tons of photo opportunities. We chose not to take the Loch Lomond boat tour as we’d gone on the boat in Loch Ness on another tour. Instead we grabbed a coffee and a snack and wandered the town. Marco then took us to see the hairy coos, which was a lot of fun and, of course, the area was very picturesque. Then we went on to Stirling castle, which we LOVED. We arrived around 4PM and there weren’t a lot of people so we were able to see everything we wanted to see and get lots of pictures. I highly recommend touring this castle for the amazing views and the history. We’re from Canada and we’ve never experienced anything like this before. It was truly once in a lifetime for us. After the castle we visited the kelpies, which were quite beautiful. Marco was an excellent guide, full of local knowledge and history. He was also very accommodating, polite and kind with all the guests. Thank you to Discover Scotland Tours and Marco for a really wonderful day! Anna
June 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Overall great experience! Frank was a great guide, he was kind and witty and very informative without being overly-talkative. He gave us time to just relax and see the scenery and fielded many questions from the group with grace. Frank actually took the only pictures my friend and I got together during our whole stay in Scotland so we appreciate him for that! The tour sounds long before it happens but once you are on the road it really doesn’t feel too long. I thought we had a good amount of time to stop at each spot, especially given the Scottish weather of wind and rain. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the highlands with your company and would recommend you to anyone wanting to do the same! Thanks Frank! Colette
June 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
We loved the tour it was one of the best parts of our trip. We had a small group so that made it easy to get to see everything we wanted to see. Our tour guide Marcos was amazing he knew a lot about the area, the history, etc. We loved the small towns we stopped in – it made us feel like we were about to see many areas of Scotland. The trip was easy and fun. Thank you. Stacey.
June 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I found out about Discover Scotland Tours when I checked in at the EuroHostel in Glasgow, I am really glad I decided to book one of their tours for the next day. Fergie, our driver and guide for the day was simply marvelous, his humour and knowledge definitely made the day and the tour even more enjoyable; we visited Loch Lomond, Glencoe, Loch Ness (although I failed at finding Nessie), Pitlochry and more. My highlight of the day was Fergie playing the bagpipe for us at the Commando Memorial, listening to his tune whilst contemplating the Highlands scenery is an image that will remain forever in my head. Thank you Discover Scotland Tours and Fergie for the amazing experience, I’ll definitely recommend it! Edgar
June 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
What a wonderful day! The tour itinerary was perfect and our guide, Michael was truly delightful. He was knowledgeable, hilarious, kind, and laidback – he should be considered a national treasure! If anyone is undecided on which tour company to book with, trust me, Discover Scotland Tours won’t disappoint. Jennifer
June 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
The tour guide Stuart was awesome. I highly recommend him. He was very friendly and knowledeable about the sights. He also answered any questions we had on Scottish customs, traditions, music, food, politics, agriculture, etc. I learned a lot about Scotland from him and the tour. It was my first visit to Scotland. Your country is so beautiful. I originally tried to book an Outlander Tour, but they were all booked. I am glad I was able to utilize your services and the tour we took was great and I didn’t feel that I missed out on the Outlander sights. Stuart did a drive by of Doune Castle so I got a little bit of my Outlander. And we got to see a few sights in Glasgow before returning to the ship as we had some extra time. I will recommend to my friends who depend on me for travel advice to use your company and your tours. Thanks again for a great experience. Cheryl & Greg
June 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
I took the Highlands tour visiting the village of Luss and Stirling Castle with tour guide Michael. It was my favorite tour on my trip. I loved seeing Loch Lomond and the quaint village of Luss. We had plenty of time to have lunch in a nice town even though it was raining. We saw two castles and Michael was very knowledgeable and informative. He also warned us about the high prices at the dreaded gift shops. Lol. The highlight for me was the opportunity to meet a Highland coo. It was amazing. If I ever can return, I would do the day all over again! Many thanks, Kathy
June 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle and Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
A great experience! We greatly enjoyed two tours with your company, the Loch Lomond Tour on 19th of June and Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig, Glencoe on 20th of June. The trip to Loch Lomond was fantastic, Karen, our driver guide,was very kind, professional, competent, engaging, informative (we learnt a lot of things) , travelling with her was a great pleasure. The second trip to Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig, Glencoe, was interesting and amazing. We had a lot of fun with Scott, our creative driver, who involved us in the nature sceneries and provided us with all sorts of information, including popular local music. Both trips were delightful, everything (organization, times, means of transport, communication mails) was just awesome. Thanks and surely we are going to recommend your company to all the people who want to visit Scotland. Ornella and Marzio
June 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We booked your tour last minute and it turned out to be one of the best tours we have taken in the UK. We have tried all the big name tours too and by far yours was the best. That is mostly due to Dave and his hilarious and informative commentary. My kids were throughly entertained and we would definitely take a tour with you again. Thanks so much for making our time in Glasgow so fun. Liesel
June 2022 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
First off, our driver John Black was excellent! Very cheery guy with lots of interesting little tidbits of information during our journey. He even checked the weather forecast for our trip to Iona and Staffa and arranged the trip for the day with the best weather. So grateful for that as we had a perfect, beautiful day for that part of the tour. The next day was rainy and windy so we would have missed Staffa if John hadn’t have looked at the forecast and rescheduled it. The tour bus is very, very comfortable and it was also very nice that there were only 9 of us onboard. Made for roomy and comfortable travel. Lots of “comfort” stops and plenty of time to tour different places that we stopped in. We would definitely recommend your tour company and wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again on our next trip to Scotland. Cheers, Callum & Lynda
June 2022 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I had a ridiculously good time! From the very first moment John jumped out of that bus.. full of energy, of a sunny, cheerful disposition… I was relieved. I’m still smiling when I think about our tour. I felt so safe while he was driving and the roads aren’t that easy to drive at all.. I had lovely fellow travellers. John entertained us and shared all of his knowledge (trivial or not) 🙂 And there were other small things too that I loved.. for instance, he only played Scottish Bands on his bus. 🙂 He really put effort in it. We saw how much he loves his job and that he really wanted us to have a good, unforgettable time! And he excelled! I’m still so happy I ended up on that particular trip and think about doing another tour any time soon. So thanks to John in particular and all the other people in the background organising! I had a great time! Claudia
June 2022 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
The trip exceeded my expectations. Our guide – Stewart – was exceptional! He did a fantastic job of always keep us informed of the daily schedule and the upcoming events. Another other highlight was the B&B in Tobermory – truly exceptional. I look forward to booking another tour with your company. Aaron
June 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
‘Despite pouring rain for a significant part of the day, this tour to Oban en Glencoe was a real success for me and my 19-year old daughter. I wanted to give her the opportunity to see more of Scotland than just the cities and it worked well. Our guide John was very friendly and enthusiastic and had a lot of knowledge about all the places we visited. We have learned and seen a lot and now know where to go back next time. Thank you very much for this wonderful day! Naomi
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My tour was the Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour with Gary. The itinerary was great. Loved all the stops. Loads of time at each stop , didn’t feel rushed. Our tour guide, Gary, was fantastic. He had loads of fun facts and quips and kept us all motivated even though the weather was against us. Will definitely recommend Gary and the tour to anyone! Gráinne
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had an amazing tour in every way. You are highly regarded, and now I know why. Every aspect was seamless, mostly due to our fantastic guide, Jerry. He was so kind, informative, accommodating and fun. Just a lovely person. We got to see and learn so much about each destination, along with Scottish history, culture and music. So nice to be able to enjoy the stunning landscape without the worry of driving. We had an amazing and unforgettable experience. We have good friends who are planning to visit Scotland next year, and I will most certainly recommend your company to them. Thanks again! Heather
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Both me and my travel companion were extremely satisfied with our tour! We had an amazing time and Scott, our tour guide, did a fantastic job showing us the great landscapes and views of the highlands and the island of Skye! The tour exceeded all my expectations. The stay at Winklebeech B&B was perfect, both in terms of the rooms and the breakfast and the bus was comfortable. We stopped at all important sights, had plenty of opportunity to explore the landscapes and take photos and got a very nice introduction to the history, culture and beauty of Scotland. In summary: The tour was a really relaxed and pleasant way of exploring Scotland and I would fully recommend it. David
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
What a tour ,we had the best time ever.Scot was wonderful could not do enough for everyone, felt very safe with his driving ability. His knowledge of the places was very good. Coach was fresh and clean, he went out of his way to help everyone have a good trip. Will be booking again with your company. Thank you for such a terrific tour. Robert
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Our trip to Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour was amazing. Jerry, our Tour Lead was excellent, his knowledge of every where he took us was incredible, he new facts, figures, history and had amazing stories to tell. He was helpful, very kind and great fun (with his stories and bag of props!) to be on tour with. The guest house Mo Dhachaidh was also excellent and the host was very welcoming.The places Jerry took us to were absolutely beautiful, and if we had not done the tour we would never had known about. This was our first ever coach tour and as it was a small group of 16 we found it very friendly. Jerry dropped us off and picked us up on time every day, he even came to the guest house front door to pick us up. Thank you for such an incredible experience. Rachel & Eddie
June 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My daughter and I had a wonderful tour. Our tour guide, John, lead us on an interesting and scenic tour. We were given flexibility and even though I have some mobility issues I felt completely relaxed with our tour. The small group allowed John to give us an opportunity to experience Scottish culture as well as visiting the tourist destinations. We particularly enjoyed the Skye Weavers. The information John gave us on the bus along with the music made the drive more than just a drive. The weather on our trip was not very good but because of John and the fine people on the tour it didn’t dampen our spirits instead it added to our memories. This tour was a highlight of our visit to Scotland. Highly recommend this tour. Thank you tour guide John and Discover Scotland Tours. Jean and Catherine
May 2022 – Glenfinnan, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
It was a very nice tour and we were very happy with the driver/guide Marco. Friendly and fun guy. Overall it was a nice experience. Great views and nice stops. Trausti
May 2022 – Glenfinnan, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
Just to let you know that we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Highlands, especially to the Glenfinnan Viaduct. The driver John was excellent with his courteousness, attending to our needs and a tour guide as well. Hasan
May 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
The tour I joined was through the Highlands to the southern town of Fort Augustus. The tour leader was John. I was really impressed at his knowledgeable, friendly & easy going he was. As there were only 3 of us participating in the tour, communication was pretty straightforward however John great sense of humour and ability to relate to people, made for a very enjoyable day. I would not hesitate to recommend your company to others coming to Edinburgh in future. Wishing your compact every success. Emily
May 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Our experience was fantastic on both tours. Marco and Frank answered all of our questions, were incredibly friendly, informative and approachable. Nothing was too much trouble and we had lots of laughs! Despite the rain. We think you are doing a fantastic job and would highly recommend. If we come to Scotland again, we’d be very interested in any Scottish Island tours you may have. Thank you again. Rhodri and Sarah
May 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Our guide, John, was amazing. He made the trip entertaining and we learned a lot about culture and Scotland. He made sure every guest had a great time. You can tell he truly likes his job and being with your guests. The overall experience was also great. Scotland is a beautiful country and we are happy we scheduled our tour with you. Keep up the great work. Please pass on our appreciation to John for a great tour. Greg

May 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Our guide was fantastic as he included stopping to see highland animals. He also told funny stories, gave some history and took us to where we were supposed to go. Loved that our tickets to the castle were included. A very enjoyable tour. Wendy
May 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Not a lot to say about our tour except it was fantastic, from first seeing your fleet convoy into the dock area, it looked like we had made the right decision, 1st impressions were of a very well run company with brilliant vehicles. Our meet and greet made us feel at ease within the first minute. Fergie looked brilliant in his Scottish attire . The gift bag was a great bonus. all the destinations were very well chosen and exactly what we were hoping for with plenty of comfort/ toilet breaks. the stops were just the right length and I’m sure everyone comments of the bagpipes being played…what a treat. The guide was informative and extremely knowledgeable on Scottish history. He got us back to the ship exactly on time. Thanks for a great day. Steve & Clare
May 2022 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We had an amazing time. The guide was knowledgeable, pleasant and the bagpipes put the tour over the top. The goody bag of local food and drinks was a pleasant surprise along with the fact that the admissions were included in the price of the tour. I would highly recommend you to anyone who wants the best immersion in Scotland you can get in one day. Thank you for the best tour on our cruise. Howard & Janice
May 2022 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Glencoe
We did the Mallaig tour with Scott as ourdriver/guide. Firstly Scott. You have a real gem there. He was fun, welcoming, and informative from start to finish. It was a rainy day but we still loved every minute. To be singing Loch Lomond on the banks of LL was a true memory. Unlike other tours we have done we did not feel the stops were geared up to us having to spend money. There were opportunities but these were our choice not ‘forced’ upon us. A lovely feeling. Would not change a thing. Would definitely recommend. Sarahjane
May 2022 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Glencoe
The Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe tour with Collin was one of the best experiences we have had in Scotland! Not only were the views breathtaking, Collin was really knowledgeable and made our tour really enjoyable! The choice of music and stories told by Collin 👍! He really took the effort to make sure that we were making full use of our time during the tour. Bernice
May 2022 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Glencoe
To start with Colin, our tour leader was amazing. We started on time and everything there after was on time. Colin has great knowledge about the culture and history, which is an authentic experience for anybody exploring any new place to go with the traditional dress that he wore. All the spots mentioned in the Itenary were covered and there was sufficient time given to customers, be it for a quick refreshment or just to stop on the way and appreciate the beautiful scenery that the highlands had to offer. Kudos to the team and I look forward to many more trips in the future with your team. Aditya
May 2022 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Thank you so much for an amazing holiday. The information before booking was really good and we used the online chat function to ask questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour it had the perfect balance of visiting all the sights with leisurely time and regular breaks. There was something there for all ages even our 5 year old enjoyed it. Our days in Iona and on Mull were in glorious sunshine. Our tour guide John Black genuinely went out of his way to make sure everyone was happy and had everything they needed. It was obvious that he loves his job. He helped my mum down some steps and did high fives with my son. He was an excellent driver working long days and navigated the single track roads in Mull in a big vehicle with ease, we were grateful to have someone else doing the driving for us. He was flexible and had lots of advice and recommendations. We’d definitely recommend the tours to others and hope to book the Skye tour next time. Many thanks to the team. Vanessa
May 2022 – Isles of Mull. Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
I can’t say enough good things about Discover Scotland tours! My husband and I took the Isles of Mull, Iona and the Highlands 4 day tour in May ‘22. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide! Nick was so knowledgable about not only every stop we made, but every question we had along the way. He was personable, yet professional, and was able to tailor the trip to the groups’ interests. He even surprised us with a stop that we hadn’t expected would be possible (at Rob Roy MacGregor’s grave), and we really appreciated it (as we are MacGregors ourselves)! The small coach itself was also very comfortable, and we made stops at intervals that were optimal for using the restrooms. I love the smaller group size compared with other tours. I love and miss Tobermory already and cherish the memories of this tour. I wish we had booked them for the Skye trip as well! Thanks again for the wonderful experience! Alice
May 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
The tour exceeded my expectations. Although the tour itself , the timing the locations and the stops were all amazing, I must say our guide, Scott, is really what put the tour on the above expectations scale. He was awesome. Your vans are great, the place we stayed which you organized for us was outstanding. A sincere THANK you. Brenda
May 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had a fantastic time on your tour.It was an experience that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.Our host and driver, Scott, made the journey extra special for us with his cheerful and friendly nature – his enthusiasm rubbed off on all of us, making the whole group gel like one happy family. Alas it had to end after only 3 days!! We have highly recommended Discover Scotland Tour company to our friends and relatives. Jitendra and Mina
May 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Thank you for your email. We had already decided that we were going to email you some feedback as we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. We have never taken any sort of group tour before. When we decided to visit Scotland I looked at what tours were departing from Glasgow and Edinburgh. Yours came up as an option along with a range of others. We chose your company as the tour itinerary was what we wanted, with the stay on Skye.( Some tours travel back to mainland Scotland each day, some do not include accommodation options ). Jerry was a superb tour guide. He made sure everyone was comfortable , he knew exactly where to go for toilet stops, coffee, photo opportunities etc. He gave us so much information about Scotland, the places we were visiting, etc. Nothing was too much trouble for him. He made the trip go very smoothly. We were able to sit back, relax , and enjoy the scenery. We have also been very impressed with your company and the quick efficient and friendly voices on the end of the phone when we have rung with queries. We have already had a number of friends enquiring as to who we toured with, as they have seen our photos on Facebook. We have no qualms about recommending you and hope that we can tour with you again next year, hopefully to Mull and Iona. Joy and George
May 2022 – Isle of Skye, Loch Ness & the Highlands 4 day tour from Glasgow
I had a wonderful time on this tour. As an ‘older woman’ travelling alone, I was a bit apprehensive, but I need not have worried. The beauty of travelling in a small coach is that you all get to know eachother very quickly. I had soon gelled with my travelling companions and of course our driver/guide Michael, who was superb. From the very start Michael was giving us loads of information about each place that we passed through. I learned and saw so much that I’d never have known or seen if I hadn’t been on this tour. Michael’s knowledge, humour, and caring attitude towards us all made such a difference. There were plenty of stops along the way to photograph the spectacular scenery, and for coffee, lunch etc. It was so convenient that you organised accommodation for me, and that we were picked up every morning and dropped at our hotel/B&B early evening. Everything was well planned throughout and we never needed to worry about a thing. I have no hesitation in recommending Discover Scotland Tours. Thank you! Jean
April 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
My trip with you to Glenfinnan was amazing and John the driver was such funny, very kind person and full of knowledge. I have seen even more Scotland than I imagined. I could have seen Scottish cows and I have eaten a whiskey ice cream. I really enjoyed it. Alicja.
April 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
A truly enjoyable tour. Our tour guide, Jerry, was most welcoming, attentive, entertaining and knowledgeable. We highly recommend this tour. We learned so much and saw so much of this area of Scotland. Thank you Discover Scotland Tours. Laura.
April 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Myself and my 15 year old son met your wonderful tour guide and driver Gary at Buchanan bus station. Right from the outset we found Gary to be very friendly and most knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed the breathtaking scenery and had the opportunity to take plenty of photos.It was quite a long day for us but we found there were enough breaks to keep us comfortable, mid morning coffee and lunch. The transport itself was extremely good, the seats comfortable and the driver second to none, we felt very safe. We couldn’t fault the day at all; my teen was very engaged, taking plenty of photos, learning very interesting facts from Garry and is still talking about it now so an amazing time was had by us both. The cruise at Loch Ness was brilliant and the skipper quite the comedian which made us laugh. We will definitely come back and tour with you again when we are next in Scotland. Keep up the good work. Lucy.
April 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Me and my partner greatly enjoyed the day tour with your Company on the 16th of April, 2022. Michael was a great guide and driver who gave us important information and entertained us with his jokes and Scottish music in the van. The tour was very well conducted and managed in the exact way as promised. You guys are doing great work and I hope I’m able to book a tour with you during my next visit to Scotland. Good luck!! Harsh.
April 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I have to tell you that we had a wonderful time!!! The small group, the price, the type of bus, and our tour guy, were all great! Our tour guy, John, made the whole experience more amenable and interesting. We were able to keep our phones charged so I didn’t miss taking pictures. We truly enjoyed the tour and will be recommending your company to others. Olinda.
April 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I wanted to give feedback on our tour on Wednesday April 20, 2022. Our tour guide was John. He was fantastic. He was full of facts and information. The scenic points were well planned out. He let us take as much time as we wanted with giving us an allowable time to explore and take pictures. The sites were fantastic. We made it to the viaduct with plenty of time to find a good viewing spot. We did get to miss out on Drover’s Inn but that’s ok. He got us back at an acceptable time. Your company found themselves a great tour guide. If we ever find ourselves back in Scotland, we would love to try the 3 day Isle of Skye tour that John was talking about. We will definitely recommend your company to friends and family. The bus was also comfortable and clean. Tercy, Mauricio & Oscar
April 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Honestly….everything was just awesome. The small group size made me not feel like part of a tourist heard but more like a group of friends on a road trip. My tour leader was Colin and he was an absolute doll and so much craic, I loved how he also made the driving parts worthwhile with the stories, the music… Those myths, stories and history actually got to me, which really set me in the mood for my time in the highlands, making my whole 3 days there so much more immersive and worthwhile, I’m so grateful for that. Eveline.
April 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I greatly enjoyed the Mallaig trip on the 17th of April just the right amount of stops and time to wander also the driver guide Colin was outstanding very informative entertaining and knowledgeable and also accommodating to all his passengers needs once again a lovely trip and as this is my second trip with discover Scotland I have no doubts about booking again in future Thanks to you as a company and a special thanks to Colin. Michael.
April 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The trip out to Oban, and the various stops along the way, was delightful. Our driver, Colin, was knowledgeable, fun, and engaging. He went out of his way to ensure we had a positive experience. We were slightly ahead of schedule, and he stopped at St. Conan’s Kirk to give us 15-20 minutes to explore it. It is a place I’ve wanted to go, but didn’t think I’d ever get there, as no tour included it as a stop off point. That was a total BONUS. I was shocked to find out that our tour was only Colin’s 6th one! Would never have guessed, as he was very comfortable in his role as guide. Looking forward to next year’s visit, and another tour. Lorraine.
April 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Ive been traveling with Discover Scotland for a number of years. Brilliant company and the drivers are first class. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking to book a trip. You will not be disappoint. Thank you once again for a fantastic trip. Carol & Arthur.
April 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I’m still speechless over the total amazing experience I had on this trip. Everything was spot on with timing, super organized, everything went seamless. Our driver Jerry was amazing and attentive, totally safety conscious and a great wit and sense of humour. We also had Scott and I forget the other wonderful young man’s name, but they were all great. The whole time felt like we were a family group. My accommodation was wonderful all round. Cindy.
April 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
Our tour of the Highlands was undoubtedly the highlight of our trip. From start to finish our driver/guide John was absolutely fantastic. It was great to hear stories and information about sights that you otherwise wouldn’t get to hear. The tour itself is very well designed. Plenty of stops along the way and the appropriate amount of time at each stop. John was absolutely brilliant. Great to hear local stories and he had some solid recommendations for food and drink throughout the trip. Thank you so much for such a great trip, it was brilliant! Don.
April 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Our Family of 5 enjoyed a great 3-day tour of The Isle of Skye, the Highlands, & Lochness. Jerry was our driver and a fantastic tour guide. Jerry had much history and stories to share along the way and he was very punctual, responsible, and kind. Our favorites included Kilt rock, the Harry Potter train, the Lochness cruise, and the fairy hills. We highly recommend this tour if seeing all breathtaking aspects of Isle of Skye and Lochness is on your bucket list. Thanks for a once in a lifetime experience. John.
April 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highland & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
The tour were absolutely fantastic. Kudos to Michael the driver/guide, who made the trip memorable with his knowledge of historical events and his sense of humor. He’s very accommodative and go easy with the group too. The trip was relaxing, no rush for time, made many stops to take pictures as well as covering all the itineraries that was given. Our 3 nights stay at Broadford Town was comfortable and cosy. Above all every morning we were served with good breakfast that was beyond our expectation. Appreciate DiscoverScotlandtours for the accommodation arrangement and tour itineraries that make it a memorable moments for us. Patrick & Nelly.
April 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highland & Loch Ness 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
My tour was truly outstanding. The areas we visited were unmatched, as was the comprehensive knowledge, charisma and care that my guide (Stuart) gave us. It felt like we truly squeezed every drop of incredible memories out of everyday without being too overwhelmed or rushed; a perfect balance. We also had the lovely opportunity to meet new training guides Scott and Collin and I couldn’t be more excited for the future of this little family company with them in it. If I’m ever in the area again there’s no doubt I’ll be back:) Thank you so much. Aneka & Xander
March 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
I have to say that going on a tour to Glenfinnan viaduct through yourselves at Discover Scotland with my daughter and I was pure bliss. We had a brilliant driver in John, who was so informative and knew so much about what to look out for. (Ask John about the owl he called out from the tree that fed from his hand.) We had enough stops for photo opportunities to make us happy and enough time to enjoy it all. The scenery going through the Trossachs was enough to put a tear in my eyes and if you get the chance to enjoy a haggis pie from Mhor Bakery I would highly recommend it. Thank you Discover Scotland , you have given my daughter and I wonderful memories. Dave.
March 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel
Super trip, perfectly drafted tour and guide seems to be aware of intel and history of Scotland which made it more pleasant. Overall 10 on 10. Aryan.
March 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
I didn’t want to come upto Edinburgh from London just to go shopping, I wanted to see a different part of Edinburgh hence why I booked the trip to Loch lomand national park, The Kelpies & Stirling Castle. We had fabulous weather which was an added bonus. John was brilliant, very knowledgeable. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would certainly use your services again in the future. I would recommend the tour I was on to anyone. Corrine.
March 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Just wanted to say a BIG thank you – our day tour from Edinburgh was really great value for money and the tour bus was really comfortable, spacious and clean. Most importantly, our driver and guide (John) was really great – knowledgable, helpful and all with a great sense of humour! Harry & George
March 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We recently visited Loch Ness Glencoe and the Highlands with Discover Scotland and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We were impressed with all aspects of the tour including the organisation, standard of cleanliness and safety measures of the vehicle and of course the magnificent scenery. However the star of the show was undoubtedly Jerry our guide and driver! Jerry was able to keep us entertained for twelve hours with his vast knowledge of Scottish history and personal anecdotes interspersed with music appropriate to the region we were travelling through so never a dull moment. Thank you, Discover Scotland, and particularly Jerry for providing us with such a wonderful trip. Well Done. Wendy.
March 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Thank you so much for reaching out! And we had a wonderful time! We went as a group of seven university students and it was one of the best experiences of our long midterm break! We absolutely loved our tour guide, John Black, and he was the kindest, most welcoming guide ever! He taught us so much about Scotland and we all want to come back! It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Thank you. Gemay.
March 2022 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
From the moment we met Michael our tour guide we knew we were going to have a good time, he was very warm, welcoming, funny and had banter from the start, just what we liked. He kept us entertained for the whole tour with great music, interesting facts and great history about your country. Nothing was ever too much of a bother with Michael and we couldn’t of asked for a greater tour guide, he is a real asset to your company. The itinerary was great!! I have previously done a tour to Loch Ness and wanted to explore a different part of Scotland. There was plenty of time to visit each part and nothing felt rushed. It’s a wonderful tour with many stops along the way. Michael even gave us two extra stops. There was a great combination of Lochs, Castles and view points. Our favourite place was Loch Lubnaig! Next time we visit Scotland we would love to do another tour with you guys! 10 out of 10 for value and experience! Regards Gemay
March 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
Thank you for the lovely tour. We very much enjoyed Nick and his charming tour of loch Lomond and Sterling Castle. We loved the cleanliness and comfort of the bus and Nick’s hospitality. Since we are a large group and wanted to see more than just Edinburgh, but we’re afraid to drive on the left, we wanted just a day tour so we could do the rest on our own. Thank you again, it was magnificent. Erin
March 2022 – Loch Lomond National Park & Stirling Castle
I just wanted to write to you and thank you for our amazing tour. Everything about the tour was outstanding and perfect. I wanted to give a special thanks to Scott and John who were with us on our tour. They made the day even more perfect. In our group were 2 persons from the Icelandic search and rescue team and John provided us with so many information about the mountains and gave us great information about hiking options in the Highlands. He was also very well informed and has a good presence. Scotts commentary and sense of humor topped the day! He did so well this being his first day as a tour guide. We would all love to come again on his tour! 🙂 We would love it if you would send greetings and compliments to them from us and thank them ones again for the tour 🙂 You are very lucky to have them on your team 🙂 With great thanks, Elva
March 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Scott and Stuart were absolutely fantastic on the Oban Tour from Glasgow last week. They kept us entertained the whole trip. This tour was the highlight of our trip to Scotland. Have already recommended it to friends and family. Lots of hidden Gems and the knowledge was second to none. Will be coming back and will book another trip next time with Discover Scotland Tours. With thanks – Alastair and Romina
March 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I cannot recommend the tour enough, it truly was the highlight of our trip to Glasgow. Fergie was an excellent tour guide, providing really interesting facts on the history of the places we visited alongside some funny anecdotes. The structure of the tour itself was spot on. I was worried that we’d be on the coach for a long time, but every stop was timely and didn’t make it feel like we were just sitting on a coach all day which was fab. Each picture stop was phenomenal and it was great to have time to enjoy lunch in Oban and a drink in the pub on the way home. Everything was perfect, as as I said I could not recommend enough. It’s a great day trip, with brilliant spots that make you really appreciate the beautiful Scottish highlands! Thanks, Anna
March 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We did the 3 day tour of the Isle of Skye, Loch Ness, and the highlands. There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that I would change about our tour. It was perfect. The weather was absurdly perfect (considering the unpredictability of Scotland weather) the absolute best part of the tour was our guide Michael. He had a layout of pictures and song playlist, and the best stories of all we were seeing which was a ton. He was very charming, funny, and so easy to love. He is an incredible asset to your company. Worth his weight in gold♡ I will cherish these memories forever ♡♡♡♡ thank you so much. Lisa
March 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We wanted to take a moment and thank Discover Scotland tours and especially Nick, our tour guide, for a fantastic three days in Scotland. Scotland is absolutely beautiful, the cities, mountains, lochs, wildlife and people. From the moment we met the tour group in Edinburgh we felt right at home. Our tour group consisted of 13 people which gave us the opportunity to meet people from different countries and experience their culture. Nick did an outstanding job at helping the group mesh and interact with one another. From the moment we loaded the bus on Friday until we were dropped off on Sunday night Nick imparted his knowledge of Scotland to the group. Nick told us of Scottish history, both good and bad. He told us tales that had been passed down from generation to generation and from century to century. His knowledge of landmarks, names of mountains, fairy pools, fairy dens and where to find Scottish cows (coos) was second to none. It’s one thing to see a landmark it is quite another to see tha landmark and learn of its history. The way Nick spoke almost put you in the moment as if you were there as these historic events took place. Nick knew of films which had been shot and their locations and passed that knowledge to the group. Since we’ve been home I’ve watched a couple of movies which Nick spoke of and was able to say I was there. Our lodging on the Isle of Skye was at Winkle Beech, a bed and breakfast in Kyleakin. Fiona was an outstanding host and the views from our rooms was breathtaking. When we first planned this trip we thought about driving ourselves. I am so glad we did not. We would have never seen all of the sights or found the views which Nick treated us. We would have been lost and constantly asking for directions. Nick took us to places and overlooks we would never have located on our own. Because of Nick we had an experience we will never forget. We hope to come back soon and if we do we will definitely be using Discover Scotland tours and hoping, even praying, for Nick to be our guide. Nick, thank you for the memories and introducing us to fairy haggis!!! To the rest of our tour group thank you for making the journey memorable. Jason, Lori and Laney
February 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I give 5 stars! Everything was really good and I will recommend your company to my friends and family. Your driver, Michael was the perfect guide, interesting, funny and helpful. We spent a wonderful day. However it would be nice to be able to spend a little more time in some places because it’s very fast, but I know it’s very complicated because we only have the day. I thought it was great that the driver gave us food to feed the animals, it was a nice moment of sharing . The values of your company are very well represented throughout the journey, you are a small but friendly and sustainable company. Nema
February 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Thank you so much for the great tour! I had so much fun! I’m sorry Michael, the Highland coos were really a (the?) highlight of the tour, but your stories and fun facts about whiskey, the horse of the water (Nessie is not a monster!), and James Bond were a close second ;D And your road trip songs are now playing constantly on my phone! Even though we did not have the best weather (there was a storm on our way back to Glasgow!), the landscape of Scotland is stunning in every weather and it was such a nice and relaxed atmosphere in the bus. Thank you again Michael, for being so forthcoming and even bringing us back home. Annalena
February 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I think you absolutely deserve to know the Tour was amazing. It was an amazing trip, even if the weather wasn’t the best, the tour guide (John I think) killed it!! Amazing driver, super mega funny and interesting, I would absolutely repeat it, thank you so much!! Sabrina
February 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip, Nick was amazing and incredibly accommodating to what we wanted to see and encorperated everything into the tour in the time available. In the instance that we were the only people on the tour we got to see some perfect areas of scotland and Nick was both engaging and knowledgeable about all the aspects of scenery and sites. Could not have asked for more. 5 stars well done. Lindsay & Mariana
February 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The tour was excellent. John the tour leader/driver was so very knowledgeable and helpful. I now have an urge to find out more about Scottish history from his information regarding the different Clans. He even played tracks by Runrig for me and gave some shocking insights into the lyrics of their songs ie again about Scottish history esp Isle of Skye. I would absolutely highly recommend this tour to others. John gave us lots of photo stops and I felt comfortable with his driving even though i can be a nervous passenger. Fantastic trip highly recommend. Belinda and Jessica Baker
January 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour and tour guide was FANTASTIC – Michael was brilliant – he should be on the stage. When you are on a tour – you don’t just want facts – you want to be entertained too – and Michael did that too – LOVED his outfit . Yvette
January 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We were very suprised when we were greeted by John at the bus station that we were going to be the only ones on the tour. John was professional and engaging as well as playing some good music we may have added a song or two to his playlist. He was very informative and it showed through the vast knowledge he had about each location. Any questions that we had he was more than happy to answer. The weather held up all day which was great and meant that we were able to see everything along the tour in all its glory. John was also right in saying the we would see every season in one day as that is exactly what happened.
We were also impressed by his ability to talk to animals (Dr dolittle 2.0) as the cows came running as soon as they saw him. We ended the tour in Pitlochry which had the most amazing whiskey ice cream that was recommended by John. We hope to see you again soon. Meera and Tamika
January 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Hello! Firstly, I would like to say a big thank you since our tour was more than amazing! Me and my friends had a really great time and not only did we had fun and enjoy ourselves, but we also learned so much about Scotland (its people, history, culture etc.)! Everything was great, we had the chance to do many stops and take videos, photos, grab coffee, snacks and souvenirs and we had a lot of bathroom breaks too (something that was really important to us). Special thanks to our tour guide (Jon) who took care of us and kept us both safe and comfortable as well as excited, while also recommending us things to do and giving us as many information as possible! Again thank you very much and keep up the good work! Markella
January 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Hey, I really enjoyed my trip It was soo worth it, the discount was cherry on the top. I loved the whole experience and the tour leader John was amazing. I had so much fun talking to him. It was very comfortable and he gave information about every places we visited with a touch of humour, which was really fun and it didn’t get boring for even a second. I would definitely recommend anyone to go for this trip and would myself visit sometime again. Thank you for the experience and keep it fun! Vallari
January 2022 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I cannot stress enough how much of a great time we had on the tour, we thoroughly enjoyed it and Nick, our tour guide, was fantastic and very kind – he really made it happen for us. The time was filled with interesting facts and tidbits and he was able to “read his crowd” and tailor the experience. He quickly picked up on my interest in landscape photography and he suggested a couple of quick stops based on that, since we were making good time. Everyone in our group had only positive comments afterwards. Overall, a fantastic experience and well worth the price and I’ll recommend your business to anyone who asks! 😊 Georgios
January 2022 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I had a lovely experience, John was our guide and he went above and beyond. Very easy going and bright smiles to really show how proud he is of his land. This tour actually made me realise how much I want to come back and live in the highlands. So, it was exceptional to say the least. It was absolutely astounding I loved every bit! Neena
January 2022 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
This tour was the highlight of our trip to Scotland. We’ve been looking forward to it for weeks, watching videos, and researching as much as possible. We got really lucky because the weather was perfect –cold but a sunny day that made it so much easier to take in the beauty of everything we saw. Our tour guide was John who warmly welcomed us, told us interesting stories, gave a great informative tour on the bus, showed us the best sights to see within the areas we were visiting (even giving recommendations for where to eat in Oban), and played Scottish music in the bus. We were a small group of 7 too which made us feel safer given COVID. The bus also had air purifiers and hand sanitizer available. The itinerary had many stops along the way but it never felt like we had too much or too little time in any spot. It was very well planned! 10/10 would recommend 🙂 Felicia
January 2022 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
My tour was absolutely amazing. Scotland is so beautiful and every person I met in Scotland was so kind, including the guide Michael. Michael was great, he had stories to tell for all the locations we visited and even some of the sites we passed along the way. I love his personal touches such as songs that related to the locations and his little tapestries that he hung up at the front of the bus made each day special and unique. I enjoyed everything about the tour, I wish I could have stayed in Scotland longer. Samantha
December 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
We have enjoyed a truly wonderful day where all pieces of the puzzle did fit together perfectly. The weather was great for taking pictures – cold but dry and sometimes even sunny – and the scenery was wonderful as most of the mountains were snowcapped. The route was great and felt like a chain of highlights and the real winner was our excellent guide and driver John. We owe him lots of thanks for telling us wonderful stories about Scottish history, heroes of the past and the making of the famous Outlander series. My wife and daughters are big fans so this was a significant plus for us. Harry
December 2021 – Loch Lomond National Park, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies
The tour on Friday was fantastic. We saw everything we wanted to see, had enough time to walk around. Our tour leader, John was great. Had great tunes on the bus and he was very accommodating and informative. Thanks a lot for the tour and extend our thanks to John. Kate
December 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
The tour was a lot of fun even in the rain and wind. The scenery and locations speak for themselves but John our tour guide was lovely and provided some interesting facts the whole journey. He definitely was a highlight of the tour and gave us some local knowledge for when we venture on our own during our week stay. He went above and beyond. I was very impressed with the value for money and the overall experience. It was a long day but worth it! Thank you so much. Komal
December 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
The tour was absolutely fantastic, the first thing we said after doing it was : it was really worth it. John the driver was so nice and explained a lot of things to us, very useful to get to understand the culture and to know new and amazing places. We were only 4 people so the van was great and so comfortable. Thanks! Maria
December 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We had a trip to Glencoe and Loch Ness on December 17th and it was an amazing experience! Our tour was so great! Our driver was Jerry and he was incredibly helpful. We got lost when trying to find the meet-up place and he was kind enough to pick us up at our hotel. Throughout the trip, he was also patient as I had to translate what he said back and forth to my godmother who doesn’t speak English. We really loved how as we went through all the different locations, we also got to listen to the soundtracks of some of the movies that were recorded there, such as the Harry Potter and Skyfall soundtracks. It added a lot to the overall ambience and enjoyment of the trip. The tour was my favorite part of this Edinburgh trip and I’d definitely recommend Discover Scotland Tours. Thanks for your kindness and patience! Lais
December 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
My friends and I had been wanting to explore the Highlands and Isle of Skye for our winter holiday, but many tours only operate in the summer, so when we found Discover Scotland’s 3-day tour of the area in December, we were ecstatic! The tour itself, led by an awesome guy in plaid pants and a leather jacket named Jerry, was surreal. Each stop was strikingly unique from the last, and many of the sites made us feel like we were on a different planet from Earth entirely. Jerry struck a great balance of driving past places and letting us off the van to explore on our own; he also balanced chatting with us and giving his tour explanations very well. We didn’t get to visit the Fairy Pools due to weather, which was unfortunate but understandable. However, Jerry made his absolute best effort to prioritize exploring the areas that the travelers were interested in. The B&B we had booked through the tour was lovely as well, with a hefty breakfast provided for us each morning. Thanks Discover Scotland and Jerry for an unforgettable time! Best, Rachel
December 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
Thank you very much for a nice tour! It was so good to get out of town and spend 3 days in nature. I really enjoyed the spectacular sightseeing! Thanks to the cool driver! I look forward to meeting you next trip! Best Wishes Mara
November 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Tour was great. The driver was brilliant, friendly and very informative- kept everyone engaged. Couldn’t fault him would use your company again. Jenny.
November 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I went for a day tour to Highlands Loch, Glens and Castles from Edinburgh. I had an amazing experience with beautiful views of Castles, Lochs and finally the village of Luss. Our tour guide Jeff was friendly and informative. We were only a group of two, yet he kept us engaging throughout the tour by sharing his vast knowledge of Scottish history. Above all, he managed to show us all the planned spots despite interruptions with lashing rains. I highly recommend Discover Scotland tours and Jeff for his excellent job as a tour leader. Praveen
November 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
I had an amazing Highlands tour with John (I believe his name was) on Nov 11th. He was the perfect guide–knowledgeable, passionate about Scotland, interested in his clients, funny and also drove very safely. I recommend Discover Scotland Tours to anyone visiting and hope to book the 3-day Isle of the Skye trip next year in November as well. Thanks again! Kevin
November 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I absolutely loved my experience with Discover Scotland to Mallaig via Glencoe and Glenfinnan. I don’t remember my tour guides name but he had an impressive moustache and played the bagpipes for us which was one of the highlights of the day. I never expected to love Scotland as much as I did and I will definitely be back, and this is largely down to this tour. While the weather was shoddy, I saw everything I wanted to and I loved hearing the stories of the clans from the driver. I really appreciated that the tour wasn’t over on the way back from Mallaig and that he continued to tell stories and do a couple of stops on the way back. So many similar tours just let the customers sleep etc on the way back and I liked that we got our moneys worth. I also loved that our guide played scottish music in the van as it really added to the overall experience. Thank you so much for this tour, I really did enjoy it.
November 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour was superb and John the tour guide was exceptional. I’ve put a trip advisor on singing your praises. Would definitely recommend you to friends. Thanks. Elaine.
November 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
We booked tour as a good way to see the highlands. The mini bus was warm and extremely comfortable and we were comfortably spaced. The driver/guide John was informative and knowledgeable. The stops were timely and well chosen for their outstanding beauty. The cruise was informative and seemed over too quickly. All in all a great day out and guided by John who was a joy to spend time with. Would recommend highly and would book another if we pass this way again. Derek & Yvonne
November 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
From the outset, Cliff our driver was polite, friendly and keen on making sure we enjoyed our day. Remembering my and my wife’s name after we checked in and chatting with us at stops makes a real difference. We felt very comfortable with the precautions taken against Covid; temperature check and asking if we had any symptoms recently. Further, he ensured that masks were worn, bus had been sanitized, air purifier in place and regularly wiped down handles. The itinerary was spot on, great selection of places visited and just the right amount of time spent at each stop. Commentary was just right, not overloaded with dates and held our interest. Having done tours with other companies in other places, I rate this tour as one of the very best. Thanks again for a great day out. Keith
October 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
You guys gave an absolutely phenomenal tour on Monday. Our tour guide was Cleff (Maybe Cliff with an accent? Apologies!). His stories were highly entertaining and his knowledge was comprehensive. He was even kind enough to direct us towards the church we couldn’t find in Luss after our intended departure time, and to take us through and give a mini tour of Glasgow (with personalized recommendation for a hostel near a concert venue I am attending in December) on the way home. Wouldn’t change a thing about the experience. Even though it was rainy, Cleff (Cliff?)’s energy was buoyant and sunny for the entire 10 hours. We also got to stop and see a highland cow, which was the TOTAL highlight. All the pitstops for coffee, tea, and bathrooms were greatly appreciated. Laura
October 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles
Trudi and I enjoyed our tour. Your driver was excellent, nice guy, very genuine, drove safely. Regards to him please. Richard & Trudi
October 2021 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park from Glasgow
I had a very nice time with an amazing driver to Stirling, one the most beautiful city in Scotland. As you know we could not visit the castle but I believe we had enough fun to cover this unfortunate event. Our driver, (I can not remember his name but I think it starts with F), was one the most expert divers with amazing knowledge in history and well traditional dress. He surprised us with a bag piped instrument and I would say it was one the most amazing music I’ve ever heard. He is extremely talented in music and I really enjoyed it. I would say it was one of the best trips I’ve ever had. I highly recommend travelling with Discover Scotland and I believe you are one the best team with the best tour guides. Palmina
October 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Last weekend, October 2nd, I took the Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe tour. Our driver was excellent throughout the whole journey and gave us multiple stops and opportunities to see the steam train and take pictures of the scenery. I loved that he took the time to speak about the lands’ history while driving and gave us plenty of opportunities to see the Highland areas beyond our three main stops. I really loved this experience and will definitely recommend this tour and tour company to my friends and family. Thanks for a great tour! Keara
October 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Thank you for the email! I had a great time with the 1-day trip tour lead by Jeff.It was full of fun and the trip was amazing! Lulu
October 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Everything worked very well without any complication. The mini buses are very comfortable, clean and safe. Our driver, John, was one the best drivers and he is very educated about history and geography. He is one the most friendly, patient and supportive tour guides I’ve ever seen and he was extremely on time and charismatic. He gave us a chance to listen to traditional Scottish music which is one most beautiful music I’ve ever heard and I really enjoyed it. I would love to hear some even more Scottish music while travelling. I would like to say I had a lot of fun in a friendly environment from the time I got into the bus until the last second, everything was amazing and I am completely satisfied with the trip. I highly recommend your company and I believe everyone should try. Thank you very much for providing those unforgettable beautiful moments. Palmina
October 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
I really enjoyed the tour thank you 😊. From start to finish I cannot remember any bad moments at all, which is rare to experience. The tour leader was excellent, this day was the best day of my holiday to Scotland. If I come back to Scotland, I would book again with discover Scotland tours. I would want the same tour leader because he is such a good tour leader. Razia
October 2021 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands from Edinburgh
For me, all was perfect – the itinerary (who could possibly dislike a boat trip to Staffa?), the comfort of the mini-bus, the wonderful B&B you booked for me and, of course, Cliff, our driver and guide. He was considerate, very informative, and funny. So many marvellous photos and memories. Thank you so much for a great holiday. Maureen
October 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Hello, I had a really good day thank you. Highlights were- the bus was really comfy, Jerry the guide friendly and pro, I also appreciate the fact that the tour was not cancelled in spite of having only 3 people on it. Mathias
October 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We were really looking forward to a snapshot day out of Glasgow to experience the highlands as much as possible. I wouldn’t usually do a group tour but from doing a Discover Scotland Tour I now feel confident about trying them as the day was such a natural, fun and informative experience. The minibus itself was excellent condition, felt modern spacious and not cramped as I was worried about feeling car sick – which I didn’t at all. It was very clean and as there were only 4 of us on the trip, felt spacious and very personal in Jeff speaking to Emily and I, and the other two people on the tour. Jeff explained the day to us, his hopes of what to show us and I really found this valuable. I wouldn’t want to change anything, Jeff had the perfect balance of talking about the facts and local stories and history, allowing us to ask lots of questions, and playing wonderful music which was tailored to our discussions! Emily and I both told Jeff the day was 10/10! Lucy
October 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We did the Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles and Glencoe Tour on 16 October 2021 and had a wonderful day. We travelled with our son who is presently studying in Glasgow and it was great to be out in the countryside to see more of Scotland. Our tour guide Jerry expressed his love for Scotland, its rich history and its beautiful nature and monuments with great enthusiasm and in-depth knowledge and he was a joy to listen to! You could really tell it’s not just his job, but his love as well and that made this tour really personal! We travelled in a small van with only eight other passengers which makes it easy to get in and out of places, much better than when you travel in a big tour bus. The small size of the company also gave ample opportunity to ask all the questions we might have and Jerry was willing to answer them all! The tour also offered a fine combination of nature, monuments and at the end a wonderful little pub that has been there for centuries, a really special place. During the whole day our pace was leisurely with plenty of time to see everything on offer. And time flew by, although it was a long day, it didn’t feel like that. My most precious memory is that of the ‘Rest and be thankful’ spot where we had a great view on the valley (glen) below. We hope to come back and would recommend Discover Scotland Tours to everyone!

October 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 day tour from Glasgow
I really enjoyed our trip to the Isle of Skye and would travel again with you. Our tour guide Geoff was fantastic. He went out of his way everyday to make sure we could see as much as possible obviously depending on the weather. On the second day he even visited the Old Man of Storr again in hope that the weather would have cleared up for us to see it but I love how he always had a plan b in place without even hesitating. We saw so many fantastic things in such a small amount of time. At the end of the tour we also appreciated him going out his way to drop us directly back to the Euro hostel after the rest of the tour disembarked in Edinburgh.
September 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Our driver John did a very good job with driving carefully on this very long trip and informing us about the places we visited; we appreciated very much his choice of music and the way he talked to us! Coming from abroad we always need some days to cope with the (charming!) Scottish way of pronunciation, but we could understand our driver from the very beginning – thanks a lot, John! The different places were well chosen, and the rainy weather didn‘t really matter. We were very lucky to see the train crossing the viaduct in dry weather and we’re very impressed! It was a lovely day!! Sylvia
September 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Thank you for a wonderful tour. We really enjoyed it. Clean, well-maintained bus. What made it so enjoyable was CLIFF our tour guide /driver. Very nice, friendly, knowledgeable! I would highly recommend your tour to friends and family. Clera
September 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We had a fantastic day on our tour, the scenery was amazing with the right amount of stop offs. Our driver/guide Nick was very friendly and informative and made the trip fun we enjoyed the music too, would love to do another trip when we return to Scotland one day! Kate
September 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
We had a wonderful time with Jeff his knowledge is second to none loved his music made the whole coach welcome throughly enjoyed our day will be back to do the Isles of Mull. Regards Margie and Sheila
September 2021 – Glenfinnan Viaduct, Mallaig & Glencoe
Everything was wonderful!! Weather was cloudy but no rain. Saw everything that we had wanted to see and more. Tried our first fish & chips. Tour Leader was excellent. Returned to our hotel exhausted so that is a sign of a good time! A great day and experience! Nancy
September 2021 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed all the places we visited. Our tour guide/driver Nick was professional and friendly, he took the time to get to know everyone on the tour. He had a wonderful sense of humour and an extensive knowledge of the highlands and the places we visited. Though one could get a little confused with all the Mcdougle’s and Mcdonald clans😊. Thank you, Nick, for your daily `People choice` music: I think we all enjoyed it. We were fortunate in having a really nice and friendly group and lucky enough to have excellent weather. The coach we excellent, we felt comfortable and safe. Nick worked hard ensuring the coach remained clean and covid 19 safe. All four days were different from the beautiful village of Luss on the 1st day to the visit to the Isle of Staff when we saw Dolphins, Whales and feeding gannets to our last the experience of the Kelpies. We would have no hesitation recommending the Discover Scotland Tours to any one, and we would certainly use them again. 10/10. Regards Kath and Phil
September 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
My friend Rochelle and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, it was our first real holiday since the pandemic hit so it was a real treat for us and felt like such a nice break away. We started off in Edinburgh and then travelled to Glasgow, where we took this tour on one of our days. We also had incredible weather on the day. Loch Ness was majestic and sparkling with the sun shining in the afternoon and Glencoe had a haunting fog covering it early in the morning. Our tour guide was Stuart Ferguson (hopefully I’ve spelt his name right!), who was so knowledgeable about everything. There were so many fun facts along the way, some that I wrote down! He was an incredible tour guide, with loads of energy from start to finish (no mean feat when he’s been driving all that way and back again). He also played the bagpipes for us at certain locations, which was an added bonus! He felt like a friendly history teacher who’s open to questions and is able to illuminate the story in a really engaging way. I loved his inclusion of Scottish music on our trip and his sense of humour. He really made the experience so worthwhile and interesting. Laura
September 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Big thank you for the tour, it was amazing! We really enjoyed it, definitely will be back for another trip, we hope to see Isle of Skye. Views were stunning and Tour Leader did a really great job! Thank you so much, Patricia
September 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
My friend and I went on this tour with Discover Scotland tours. The whole experience was excellent and the staff were friendly, helpful and informative. This started with Marghrad who I booked the tour with. Cliff the driver of the tour arrived early on the day which was extremely helpful. He was very informative through the tour and provided lots of useful and interesting historical information. He was also very patient and kind. The tour was much better than driving by yourself as we learned so much about the places we visited and the history of Scotland. I would certainly book again. Angela.
September 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Edinburgh
Thank you discover scotland tour team we had a brilliant time. We are happy with your tour company. This will also give us opportunity to book another tour next time we come to Edinburgh. Driver was very good and looked after us very well. Thanks once again 😊 Bharti
September 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
3 day tour Isle of Skye with Michael , the best tour guide in the whole wide world!! By the afternoon our entire bus were friends. I found your tour just googling it. Marghrad my booking agent was so thoughtful especially since she knew I was a solo traveller. She booked a lovely Bed and Breakfast – Corran . I was very comfortable and had a beautiful eggs and smoked salmon breakfast. Highly recommend the quality and service I received. Jimin
September 2021– Isle of Skye 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
I would like to say how impressed I was with the tour. I want to add that having Jeff as our tour guide really made it such an unbelievable experience. Please let him know how much he made that such a great experience and his personality is fabulous. He has such good communication skills and had a good understanding of people’s needs. I would recommend discover Scotland tours to anyone and hope you continue to provide these wonderful tours in the future. I hope to return sometime in the future to do another tour as I love Scotland! Jenny
September 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
We will never forget our trip. The weather was glorious, and the scenery, spectacular. Our photographs, no matter how hard we tried, were unable to capture the majesty of our surroundings. Even so, we forged memories we shall always treasure. The tour was paced well, and we were able to spend enough time at key locations. Michael was a responsive and well-organised tour leader. We spent a very pleasant two nights in Kyleakin during our three-day trip. We can’t wait to go back! Scott and Chun-yi.
September 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day Tour from Glasgow
My guide was Jeff, and I wholeheartedly want to state my thanks to him for his services this week. He’s a very charismatic and funny gentleman, and his storytelling skills are excellent. He made every location especially interesting by providing us in-depth history of how each site came to be famous and what the current events are regarding each place we stopped. He was helpful with recommendations for places to eat/drink, other places to see if we came back to the Highlands, and when I told him I’m an exchange student at the University of Glasgow he even took the time out of his day to answer any questions I had about the West End of Glasgow, as he informed me that’s the area where he grew up. On the first day of the tour, I’d mentioned how badly I wanted to pet and feed a Highland cow, and on the last day of our tour he surprised the entire group with a quick detour to do just that. That particular detour has been something of a bucket-list item for me for several years now, and Jeff made it happen for me. I cannot express how much I appreciated that kind gesture from him. My only regret is not signing up for a 4 or 6 day tour, as I was sad to leave the Highlands when we finally concluded our trip. I enjoyed everything we did while traveling this beautiful country, and I’ll be sure to book another trip with this company before the weather starts to get colder. Madison
September 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
The 3-day tour was everything I expected it to be and more! A huge thank you to our guide John for being so lovely and accommodating, and for being extremely informative in sharing about the sights that we saw. He was also cracking lots of jokes during the long drives through the highlands, which we definitely appreciated. We also highly recommend staying in Limestone Cottage B&B in Broadford. Jerry, the manager, was so lovely and the breakfast he made for us tasted amazing! Overall, we really enjoyed the tour and will be recommending this one to friends and family who want to visit! Katherine
September 2021– Isle of Skye 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
Thank you so much for a fantastic 4 day trip of the Isle of Skye, the Highlands and Loch Ness. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the multiple scenic breaks throughout our days. Our Team Leader Michael was always friendly and cheerful even when the weather wasn’t on our sides most of the days. Exceptional experience overall! Kind regards, Sandra
August 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
We had a great day and were able to see more than if I had driven. The excursion times/ places have been so well organized that we were able to enjoy it all. Our Tour leader Andy was brilliant, so friendly and welcoming and also full of interesting information. I would definitely consider using your company again as I hope to be able to show my Italian husband more of Scotland and these tours are a great way to do this. Once again we had a great day. Lorna.
August 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
What a great day my friend and I had on the Loch Lomond / Mallaig and Jacobite steam train tour. I spoke to the lady in the booking office as I had a problem paying on line and I knew we were dealing with a considerate company who had time and care – then on the day when we met Geoff our guide and he handed my friend with a goodie bag and birthday card ( although I’d only mentioned it in passing that we were celebrating a birthday) I was even more convinced we were in safe hands.
I know we were fortunate that the weather was perfect – a mixture of cloud and sunshine – I even had a paddle at Traigh beach in the ten minute photo stop – but the whole day was great! Great info and humour from the guide / great scenery / a great experience over all. This is praise indeed as I very rarely do reviews! If you don’t have a car and want to experience and see more of this beautiful country I’d highly recommend Discoverscotlandtours.com. It was the highlight of our 4 day trip to Glasgow. Moira.
August 2021 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Glasgow
On behalf of my wife, Ann, my son, David, and myself I would like to thank Discover Scotland for an excellent 4 day tour. From the moment we were picked up by Nick at Buchanan Street bus station until the end of the tour Nick was professional and friendly. At the end of the first day when we arrived at The Mishnish Hotel he helped us up with our luggage to our rooms which were on the top floor. Since my wife and I are both in our late 70s this was very kind and helpful. On day two we travelled to Iona and then took a boat trip to Staffa to visit Fingals Cave before returning to Tobermory.We were very fortunate with the weather on the day which helped make it a most enjoyable experience. On day three,which started off fairly wet and remained so for most of the day, we visited Duart Castle and then the group elected to return to Tobermory for some free time around the shops. On day four we were very busy with the beautiful scenery on the planned route down through Glencoe all the way to the Kelpies and then via Edinburgh to the Glasgow area. On all four days we were treated to descriptions about the upcoming points of interest, accompanied by a selection of relevant background music. Nick’s knowledge about the places and points of interest was excellent. We will not hesitate to use Discover Scotland Tours again and look forward to our next meeting. Sandy.
August 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
The tour was everything we could have wanted and more!! Our tour leader was amazing, very informative, knew exactly where to stop for the best photos. He kept us entertained during the journey but at the same time let us have our own time. He was very understanding when we changed our minds last minute about the cruise. We couldn’t have booked a better tour! We would highly recommend to anyone considering booking a trip. Thanu.
August 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
It was a privilege for my family to join the Loch Ness and Highlands tour organised by your company. The one day tour was compact and did achieve the purpose for us to see as much as possible. We had a wonderful time at the Loch Ness and Nessie cruise. The guide Mr Ferggy (hope I spelt his name right) did his job amazingly and he was funny and informative. I enjoyed seeing him playing the bagpipes when he paid tributes to the heros of the World War II. Thank you for the wonderful day in Scotland. I surely will recommend your tour to all my friends who are planning to travel to Scotland. Audrey.
August 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I wanted to share how great the experience was on the tour. Time was well-managed, we had a good amount of time to relax, do the boat tour and get food at Loch Ness. Fergie was great, brought character and life to the trip with his outfit, music along the way and playing the bagpipes at the memorial was highly memorable. Stopping at different viewpoints helped to make it feel like we were able to see things without constantly just being in the minibus- something other people on tours said was a problem with different companies but when when read about your tour on TripAdvisor, it seemed the better option! Great day. Thank you. Priya.
August 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
My friend and I were very happy with the tour – there was a lot of interesting info, plenty of well-timed stops to see the Highlands, grab a coffee and take some pictures. Jerry (apologies if I am misspelling his name!) was an excellent driver, told us fun and informative stories, answered any questions & the quiz at the end was a lot of fun! Also it was super impressive how well we were doing with time – Jerry organised everything perfectly, so we were not late to come back & have plenty of time for a relaxed lunch & stroll at Loch Ness. Rasa.
August 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour was absolutely amazing and our tour guide Jerry was funny, knowledgeable and always happy to help. It was 5 of us, my parents, my teenage daughter and her friend and myself who attended this tour, and we are all very happy to have taken advantage of this. The price is reasonable for a 12-hour tour, we stopped frequently and the views were just stunning. Thank you beth much! Zdenka.
August 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Hi, yes really enjoyed the tour we went on with Jeff? Jeoff? Geoff? Ha, sorry not sure how he spells it! Lovely day out and about. Very informative, would do another tour but we just didn’t have the time. When we come back next year we will definitely be doing the rest of them, thanks for your services, it was a pleasure Michelle.
August 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The trip was to show my mother-in-law and father in Law around Scotland and they had a lovely time. The driver was amazing and so friendly and took his time to explain all the location. I also loved the songs he played (which were related to areas we were in). I don’t normally provide feedback but the tour was exceptional and such a lovely experience that I just had to send a review. I will definitely be going on more trips with you. Thanks again for the experience. Titilope.
August 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day tour from Glasgow
We felt very welcomed when we met Clif (Tour Guide) in Glasgow. And I also liked the small group size of your tour. If group size is large sometimes it causes delay if someone doesn’t arrive on the time at meeting point. Clif’s knowledge and interest in the history amused us. I never thought there might be amazing facts, stories and history about the places we visited. We just went to enjoy the beauty and scenery of Scotland but Clif introduced us to the stories and history. To summarize, 3 days tour to Isle of Skye was very fun and interesting, we spent some quality time there. And this is definitely sure if I visit again then it will be Discover Scotland Tours 🙂 Thanks. Rammilan.
August 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day tour from Glasgow
Our trip was great in one word. The most amazing part of our tour was our guide Michael, he’s an amazing guide and an amazing person surely. We enjoyed every bit of our trip. Thanks for arranging such a great tour, it was so sorted and neat. Zarrin.
August 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day tour from Edinburgh
Would like to thank you for a great trip around Isle of Skye, thoroughly enjoyed the tour and Jeff was great. Excellent and experienced driver full of stories, looked after us all. Had a lovely stay at Corran B&B, too. Thanks again for your arrangement, all the best and take care. Angela.
August 2021 – Isle of Skye 3 Day tour from Edinburgh
We had a great time on our discover Scotland tours! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about all the sites and the history, we never would have been able to find these iconic landmarks alone. I enjoyed the instrumental & local music he played. Accommodations were booked through the company and we had a lovely breakfast. We are so happy to be able to support a small business!! Lyncoln.
August 2021 – Isle of Skye 4 Day tour from Edinburgh
We had an absolute cracking time, we were very lucky and had some wonderfully warm weather, which allowed us to enjoy beautiful sites such as the fairy pools all the better. Our driver/guide John was helpful, funny, and extremely knowledgable of all the fascinating Scottish (and sometimes Australian!) history that was relevant to the places we were visiting, plus some great recommendations on where to eat. The accomodation that was booked for us was wonderful and moderately priced, and our host very accomodating and kind. Overall an amazing tour that we would recommend to everyone! Tayla and Nic.
July 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow & Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles from Edinburgh
My friend and I throughly enjoyed our two tours with you during our brief stay in Scotland. We were delighted with both tours, Micheal and Fergi provided excellent entertainment on the bus and looked after us well. There honestly isn’t anything that we wish was different; we had two great days out of the cities and exploring outer Scotland! Thank you for your excellent service… we will be recommending you to others! Philippa.
July 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
Thanks for our great day trip. Very surprised by the running commentary by Andy. However, it was great and very informative about our local history. I would recommend this day trip to all tourists and local Scots as a local staycation day out. Thanks for a great safe day out during these difficult times. Best of luck for the future. Liam and my Dad Jim.
July 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
My party had an excellent day on the tour, tour guide Nick was excellent, very knowledgeable, polite and knew the best stops for photos, your coach was very comfortable probably just the correct size for a tour, I honestly can say was some of the best money I have ever spent. Could’ve went back again the next day. Highly recommend your company. Kirsty
July 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
We were only in Glasgow for a few days and were looking for a varied day trip seeing as much of the countryside as we could. I found your site via google, must say I was very impressed by your site, lots of information and pictures easy accessible. We regularly holiday via a cruise so are quite used to having one day trips out, must say this one was a WOW experience, from start to finish I couldn’t fault it, Cliff the driver was amazing, felt totally safe with him driving, the coach was very comfortable and Cliff’s commentary priceless, really brought everything to life. Couldn’t think how you could improve it, for me it was 10 /10. Thanks for an excellent experience, we will return to do more. Neil
July 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
I planned a long weekend with my girlfriend in Glasgow, and I always wanted to taste a bit of the Highlands and see Loch Ness. The guide (Nick) was absolutely friend and nice during the whole trip, willing to share with us some funny anecdotes and tips on the various locations and landmarks we contoured during the journey. He was really accommodating towards the groups’ request and create a chill environment to experience in this trip. I highly recommend DiscoverScotlandTours for the nice experience they provided us, will treasure the places and the time we spent in the Highlands for a long time! CR.
July 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The trip was amazing from start to finish and we loved it, our tour guide Nick was amazing, he made us feel so comfortable and safe and was full of information of all the different places, thank you so much and will definitely be booking the loch ness one next time. David and Michelle.
July 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Had great day out. Stuart was an excellent and knowledgeable guide with great sense of humour plus the weather was perfect. Thanking you, Geoff.
July 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I would like to thank your company for an excellent tour service. Its our first time in Scotland and we had the best experience. Andrew, our tour guide, is so accomodating. We never had a dull moment during the tour. We really love his sense of humor. I cant think of any changes you should do because it was really perfect for us. Will likely recommend you to our friends. Thank you again. Hopefully, we could visit the isle of mull next with you guys! Mark and Meryl.
July 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour from Edinburgh
I would like to say big thank you for that amazing tour. We had a 3 day trip we really enjoyed it. Our driver Michael was very kind, polite, funny and made our tour very interesting telling us a lot of stories, he drove very carefully. We visited so many interesting and beautiful places. We enjoyed our trip and would like to come back again. Ekaterina
June 2021 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles and Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands Tours from Edinburgh
My family had a great time during the tours. We scheduled two different tours, “Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles” and “Loch Ness, Glencoe & The Highlands”. We had no issue finding the pick-up/drop-off location and the guides greeted us immediately upon arrival. Our tour guides were Nick and Michael, both were fantastic and very knowledgeable of historical events, locations and traditions. The tour included plenty of stops throughout the day to grab a cup of coffee, walkabout a bit, take photos and do some shopping. My family and I enjoyed the tour and do not have suggestions to make it better. Both tours are wonderful! My wife and daughter enjoyed Glen Coe, viewing the Three Sisters and Doune Castle. Thank you for making our holiday a memorable one. Cheers! Josh, Mandy and Jalynn
June 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train 1 Day Tour
We had a tour today with John and it was wonderful! He was so knowledgeable about so many different topics. We will definitely be doing another tour and recommending to our friends! Brynn
June 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train 1 Day Tour
My guide was Andy and he was brilliant. Full of interesting facts and information, very easy to talk to. He offered to take pictures for those that wanted and asked. I really enjoyed my day, we saw loads without feeling rushed at all. Having purifiers fitted to the bus was a bonus. I have severe allergies and wear a purifier at this time of year anyway, but with covid still around its good to know. I’m already looking at other tours for my next holiday later in the year! Liz
June 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train 1 Day Tour
My husband and myself had a brilliant day on the above tour. Everything was perfect and Cliff was a brilliant guide and very knowledgeable about this tour even his choice of music was perfect. Alison
June 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train 1 Day Tour
Hi guys, we had one of the best days out with your company, our driver Geoff was a fantastic guy, he had us entertained from beginning to the end, very informative about where we were going and great stories about the historical sites we saw, nothing was too much trouble, and he was pleasant throughout our trip. We would definitely book with your company again and definitely recommend your company to our friends and family. Jacqueline
June 2021 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour from Edinburgh
It was great! Nick made the whole trip a delight – with his great personality welcoming us all onto the bus daily …..and discussing the days itinerary with us all and agreeing any additions / changes with us all . His knowledge of the places and their history was unbelievable together with his personalised stories along the way. There is not moment of the trip I would have changed for the world I loved every minute of it. I will definitely be travelling with you again later this year. Thank you to you all for a wonderful holiday from booking to getting back home I’m glad I travelled with you. Sue
June 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
My mother in law and myself took the Oban tour which was great from start to finish. Andy our tour guide was great, he was informative, funny and very friendly. He did more than he was supposed to, he pointed out all places of interest and asked us to let him know if any of us wanted to take photos. The stops on this trip were lovely, Inveraray was one of my favourites. This was our second discover tour and won’t be our last. Jacqueline
June 2021 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We had the best day from start to finish our driver-guide Nick is so knowledgeable (He put us to shame we being Scottish he new more about Scotland than I did (born and bred lol). The Mini bus was absolutely spotless and comfortable as for the scenery it was absolutely breathtaking from the Lochs to the castles the mountains. Oban is also beautiful we stopped there and had plenty time for lunch. There was in all 7 on the tour and each and everyone thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you, Nick, for the fantastic day your knowledge is second to none. The Broons.
June 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day tour from Glasgow
I just wanted to say, on behalf also of my daughter and son who travelled with me on this tour, a big THANK YOU for making our trip such a wonderful experience! Everything was perfectly organised and our guide Cliff was amazing and so very knowledgeable, friendly and kind.I would not change anything about this tour – I can’t wait to book another one soon with your company and I am definitely recommending you already to all my contacts! Once again, THANK YOU for an unforgettable experience – 5 stars on everything without a doubt! Best wishes and see you soon! Rosangela, Elisa and Luca
June 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day tour from Edinburgh
We really enjoyed the tour. The guide John was amazing – his authentic look, excursion, driving, music in the bus (!). He was always ready to help with any questions and made our experience. Also we massively enjoyed our accommodation at Skye Winkle Beech – many thanks to Fiona and her children who welcomed us – rooms with a great view, breakfasts and small talks with them – everything was great. I don’t think that there was something we did not like about the tour. Thank you! Best regards, Marina.
May 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train Tour
The tour was wonderful! Jeff (not sure if that’s the correct spelling) was extremely polite and helpful. He made us feel quite comfortable through the whole tour and his knowledge and stories sure made the day a lot more interesting. Personally, there is nothing I could suggest that could improve the experience (my only regret is that it only lasted for a day haha). Also, I was given extremely efficient and kind support from all the staff regarding my booking, they were brilliant in helping me reschedule my tour and my tickets for the Jacobite. Thank you so much for the beautiful memories, that was a dream come true and I cannot wait to join Discover Scotland Tours again for my trip to the Isle of Skye! Danielle
May 2021 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train Tour
Our driver Michael did an excellent job, his commentary was informative and when time permitted would stop at an additional view point which we appreciated. The scenery was simply stunning, different skies and colours going up and then back in the late afternoon. The train back to Fort William was very enjoyable. The final stop at the Drovers Inn was very welcome for a pint before returning to Buchanan St. There’s nothing I can think of that could be changed, we both had a really good day and are now looking at doing another tour, probably with a one or two night overnight. I think Fort William would be worth another visit. Thank you, we’ll certainly be looking at your other tours for another wee break. Bob & Maggie
May 2021 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 Day Tour
The tour was quite amazing, we were lucky to have mostly sunny weather and postcard-worthy locations everywhere. Staffa and Iona were the highlights for me. Our tour leader Cliff was most accommodating, and the tour atmosphere was very positive overall. It was my second experience with your company and I would definitely join your tours again. Anamaria
May 2021 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
Our tour guide was Jeff Carmichael who made our journey into a fun and informative one, giving us the real flavour and taste of Scotland by playing peaceful scottish music throughout while you capture the beautiful scenic highlands and lochs. Would highly recommend this day trip to anyone who is short on time bit yet want to know the real culture and history behind the beautiful Scottish traditions. This trip made me plan for my next trip to Scotland!!!! Rituparna via Google Reviews
May 2021 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour
I booked a three day long tour to Isle of skye and our tour guide was Michael. The best part of the trip was Michael and the amazing stories he shared throughout the trip! There was never a single dull moment. He took us to secret spots and allowed us to have enough time at the places. The accommodation was the best at winkle beach b n b and the breakfast there was a 5 star. I really recommend this trip and you are lucky if you get Michael as your tour guide 🙂 Bhakti via Google Reviews
October 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Hello! I truly enjoyed the tour and I cannot think of anything that I didn’t like. The trip was very well planned and if you can, please give the warmest thank you to the tour guide – Nick, as I think it was partly because of his funny stories and kind attitude that I enjoyed my trip so much. You all are really doing a great job, thank you again!
October 2020 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
Well, it was well worth the early start to get into Glasgow to meet the Mini Bus – the minute I set sight on Michael, our driver/guide, sporting his dayglo pink kilt, I knew it was going to be a good day! The mini bus was spotless, with access to hand sanitiser all day and the perspex screens between the rows of seats meant we felt safe and secure on the bus. From start to finish it was great fun – even with Michael’s jokes! The sights we saw were fantastic – who’d have thought I’d be standing on pristine white sands, looking out over clear blue water, with the shining down on my birthday, in October, in Scotland?!? The weather was a bit rainy in places, but in no way detracted from our enjoyment. The mountains, the hills, the waterfalls, the Scotch mist, the winding roads and the wildlife we encountered close up were all amazing and then of course our trip on the steam train from Mallaig back to Fort William was the highlight, having already seen the viaduct from one of the view points we stopped at en route, that just increased the excitement even more! Then a pit stop on the way home for a swift half in a great old pub, just before the early closing kicked in, was the perfect end to a perfect day. The trip was fantastic, but Michael really made it for us, he is such a credit to your Company. He made the whole day really enjoyable for us, regaling us with historical tales and so many facts and figures about Scotland and the places we visited – how he can just keep reeling them off, all whilst negotiating those narrow, twisty, winding roads I’ll never know – I’m just glad he can! :o) Michael even went above and beyond when this numpty left her souvenir pictures of the Jacobite and her calendar on his bus, he arranged to meet me the following morning to drop them off to me before we headed off home, for which I am truly grateful. When we are back in Scotland we will definitely be looking to book another one of your great value tours! Thank you :o) Nikki
October 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands from Glasgow
My opinion about the tour will be extremely positive: I really liked what I saw, the view was amazing. The organization is fine and precise, particularly about the timetable and the route. Not only did we several stops for taking pictures, but also for any other things that we needed. My tour leader was very nice and available; I liked the fact that he explained us the history or small fun facts about the places that we have visited and not only. As far as I concerned, the bus was comfortable and warm: I think that it can be important to know due to the fact that the trip is quite long and it will be probably a dreich day. I definitely advise this tour. kind regards, Elisa
October 2020 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour
On behalf of my friend and I we had an amazing time. We visited so many places in skye that we would never have seen. Jeff the tour guild was amazing we are now more knowledgeable that we were about the Isle of Skye. He was brilliant and took us to so many places and gave us the time to explore. We had lunch and dinner it great paces. I would highly recommend discover Scotland Tours Thank you for a wonderful holiday to remember. Barbara
September 2020 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
Nick our tour guide was wonderful so knowledgeable and gave us so much information and answered all questions asked he made plenty of stops for pictures and we had a bit of time in Mallaig before the wonderful Jacobite train journey and our last stop at the Drovers Inn was magical very full day that went in so quickly just wonderful.
September 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I was captivated by the beauty of the Highlands, Loch Lomond and Loch Ness views. The trips have been one of the best memorable day. My trip to Glasgow was to visit Fort William and Glenfinnan. Thanks to the hotel personnel for let know about your service. I was able to see not only Fort William, but also Lock Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands. Even though I didn’t see the Glenfinnan, but the trade-off is a good compromise to make. John was very knowledgeable about the Highlands, Lochs and explain to the various sights of the Highlands and Lochs (great job John). He also knew where the best stopping point were, allow us to take a beautiful picture and enjoyed the views and he was funny. The bus tour was organized properly with Covid-19 safety in place. Overall, I had a great day visit the Glasgow spectacular scenery and highly recommend this tour.
September 2020 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Excellent tour, we got to see everything we wanted to see, including inside the castle. We would recommend this tour and company to others. The day was organised well and on time, with enough time at each stop off point to explore and take photos. The bus was comfortable and screens were in place due to covid so made us feel safe.
September 2020 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day tour
My husband and I have just returned home from a visit to Scotland which included a 3 day tour of Skye and the highlands. I cannot speak too highly of the enjoyment experienced by us on this tour. The driver/guide Stuart was great. His knowledge of local history and legends was amazing. It was no mean task negotiating all the single track roads on Skye and driving around the Highlands but we all felt very safe with Stuart at the wheel. The coach was very comfortable and extremely Covid safe with the perspex partitions between seats, masks at all times and small numbers so we could space ourselves around. The accommodation arranged by your company was very pleasant and the breakfast delicious. In short, we are very glad we chose Discover Scotland for our trip to Skye as it provided an excellent insight into that part of Scotland, covering a wide area and was really good value for money. Many thanks for a wonderful experience. Stephanie and Richard
August 2020 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
I was delighted with the trip and would like to note the driver Cliff was so helpful and gave us such interesting stories about the history of the various venues. The trip gave us the opportunity to see so many sites we had never managed to visit and the steam train was good to give a variation on our travel experience. I would highly recommend this tour and it has been a highlight of post lockdown for my husband in particular who celebrates his 80th birthday this week. The bus was very well organised to allow for distancing and arrangements with Perspex panels was great. The itinerary was well planned with the first stop at Tyndrum great for food and comfort break. Thank you to all involved in organising this trip and to our fantastic driver Cliff. Ellen
August 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
This has been one of the best 1-day tours I have ever done. I have had a similar trip with your company few years ago when I first moved to Scotland. It was great at the time and hence I was keen on having my brother and friend do the same trip with the same provider. And you didn’t fail to amaze me and my guests. The tour guide, John, was very friendly and helpful. He was funny, knowledgeable and kind. Keep it up, team! Thanks, Nadi
August 2020 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We absolutely enjoyed every moment of the 3 days Isle of Skye tour. We have received an excellent service from our Tour Guide: Michael , who gave us a real insight of the history and the unique culture of the Isle of Skye. We visited fantastic places and met friendly locals. We never had any moment where we were feeling unsafe despite of the covid-19. I would definitely recommend Discover Scotland to everyone. We will go back for sure next summer. Thanks again for the the great memory 🙂 Regards, Istvan
August 2020 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I thoroughly enjoyed the “Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles and Glencoe” tour. I appreciate these are difficult times but I never felt this impacted the experience. John, the tour leader, was very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour and kept us entertained all day. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a taste of the Highlands as it offers a great variety of things to see. I particularly enjoyed driving along the Lochs and the stunning scenery of Glencoe. Thanks again for the wonderful tour. Kind regards, Marj
March 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Jerry was our tour guide and he was amazing. He was never pushy and he didn’t rush us, even when we were getting short on time. Hearing about his family and seeing all of the postcards and pictures that he passed around just added to the experience. He gave us some very good food recommendations and I had a lot of fun jamming out to his carefully selected music. It all added to the experience of seeing the Scottish highlands and all the countryside in between. I also very much appreciated that Jerry was a fellow Outlander fan! It was cool to hear about the sites where they shot certain scenes and where certain episodes took place (and we’re also wicked jealous that he got to meet the author of the Outlander books!! Super cool!). Overall, I had a great experience and when I go back to Glasgow (already planning my next trip!) with my family, I’m taking one of your tours again. Cheers, Renee
March 2020 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I recently took the Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe Tour with Callum as our guide. It was wonderful! Callum was friendly, informative, entertaining, and kept everything on schedule while still remaining flexible to our specific group’s interests and needs. For example, there was a young veterinary student on our bus, and when we saw some highland cows on the side of the road, he very kindly pulled over so she could take some photos of them. As a solo female traveller, I like to take bus tours because they allow me to see and do many things on my holidays while also staying safe. I have taken other, similar bus tours in other cities, but this was by far my favourite. Discover Scotland Tours maximised the number of sites we saw in the day without feeling like we were rushing about from place to place. Your company also had a welcoming, personalised feel that I have not encountered in bus tours run by larger, more commercialised companies. I have already begun recommending Discover Scotland Tours to my friends and family for their future travels. Kind regards, Mikayla
February 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Hi guys, a huge thanks to you for the great trip we had with you. We would absolutely recommend it! Our tour guide was in a perfect mood, unfortunately can’t remember his name, so sorry about that. But he was absolutely perfect, giving us so many interesting insights and information, being totally relaxed, not in hurry at all, playing the best matching soundtrack for our road trip and just giving us the most chilled time listening to his great stories with his story-telling-voice. Cheers, Sabine and Anna
February 2020 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
our trip was perfect, each stop seemed to be more breathtaking than the one before and we felt like we saw a lot in a day but weren’t rushed. Our tour guide Callum was very knowledgeable and found the perfect balance between providing interesting facts and stories and chatting with us. We had the feeling that he really loves his job and his enthusiasm was very catchy. We also really enjoyed learning about some Scottish bands and songs. We went to the tourist office in Glasgow to book a tour and the lady there was really helpful and booked for us. I’ve been on a couple of tours with other companies but this one was my absolute favorite, I cannot think of anything to improve it and will be very happy to go on other tours with your company in the future. Thank you for an amazing day, fantastic memories, pictures and songs added to my playlist! Best wishes, Theresa
February 2020 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
The tour I took was most informative.Michael our tour guide kept enthralled with the history of the areas we visited.The weather played along and I had a great time wondering through the various sites. Many thanks to Michael for a most enjoyable time.you will see me again in the near future. Regards Sandy
January 2020 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands Tour has been simply amazing! Actually it was not the first time for me in the Highlands but it was my first one with Discover Scotland Tours. It was certainly worth it, because this time I got to know a lot more about the fascinating stories and culture behind this magical place and this was all thanks to our guide Callum, who is clearly very prepared and passionate about his job. He knew where to stop for perfect photos and even if the weather wasn’t the best, we managed to see the beauties of this wonderful part of Scotland. The fact that during the trip we listened to songs linked with the story and tradition of this place was the icing on the cake. I will definitely recommend it to my friends who will have the chance to visit Glasgow. Best regards, Milena
January 2020 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Our tour guide was a young Scottish man named Callum. He welcomed us with a huge grin and in a kilt, so RESPECT(it was cold). He was energetic from the very beginning which has already given me a good feeling about the tour. Our group consisted of 12 people and the van was totally comfortable and we could hear the guide from the back of the van. The tour was built up well, in my opinion we had enough stops and almost everywhere was possibility to buy some food, coffee or find a toilet. I liked a lot how enthusiastic was the tour guide about his country and also he knows so much about it, it is fascinating. He had also good jokes and asked everyone at the stops if everything is fine. I found it nice to hear Scottish bands and artists and learnt only now about famous songs that those are originally from Scotland. All in all it was an amazing day trip and very informative. I would love to go to another trip with Discover Scotland Tours, me and my friend were happy with their service. =) Best wishes, Zsófi from Hungary
January 2020 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
The family thoroughly enjoyed the experience ! Still talking about it ! Thank you so much, Genevieve
December 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I booked the tour to Loch Ness, Glen or, and the Highlands a few weeks back. I was in Scotland for the weekend and wanted to see as much as possible in the short period of time I was there. I looked online (Booking.com) and found your tour offer. The amount of places visited and the timeframe were perfect so I booked it. The tour guide was names Nick and was very welcoming. Since we were a pretty small group, we were able to make extra short stops in places that were really worth seeing (Skyfall filming location in the Highlands, etc.). The contextual and historical informations given were really interesting, the guide was knowledgeable and eloquent. The ambiance and itinerary were really great and not too restrictive. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience and would gladly book another tour with your company. Thank you very much for the experience! Camille
December 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
My fiance Steven and I booked a day trip to go to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. We were greeted by our tour leader Nick, who is honestly such an amazing guy that he is welcome at our wedding in the states! We saw beautiful sights, learned some interesting facts, listened to some great music, and had honestly good conversation. We were in a smaller group of just 6 including us, and he made sure to include everyone. We heard about this company just researching through google and we have zero regrets that we picked them. While on the tour we were given plenty of time at each location, certain tips on where to go, plenty of stops for picture opportunities, and an easy drive through the country. Next time we are back in Scotland we will be sure to take another trip with them, especially if it means cracking jokes with Nick again. Silvana
December 2019 – Outlander Day Tour
My sister and I came to Scotland for the first time last week to celebrate her birthday as she is a massive fan of the Outlander series. Your tour was definitely the pinnacle of our wonderful trip and was made even more magical by the circumstances that we were the only two passengers who had booked the tour for the day. Our guide, Jeff, was nothing short of outstanding! The knowledge he provided us of the filming locations and local history were only outshined by his wonderful humour and charm. My sister and I like to think we made a friend that day and cant thank Jeff and his highland coo companion “May May” enough for the perfect experience. The vehicle was immaculate in cleanliness and comfort and your rates were more than fair for the experience. Thank you so much for the wonderful tour! Will definitely be recommending your company to anyone I know visiting Scotland. Best regards, Joshua
November 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I thought the tour I went on Sunday the 24th was absolutely wonderful! Andy, our driver and guide was constantly telling stories and the history of the area around us, which really connected us into the region. I absolutely loved the little stops we’d make in the highlands for a photo opportunity, or to see some of the local wildlife. Overall a great experience and I will absolutely be looking to further excursions with the company in the future. Sincerely, Cale
November 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
I was so glad to receive your email as John and I were so delighted with our Stirling Castle and Loch Lomand tour that we wanted to share our delight with you. Our Tour Leader was Jerry. He was in a word, fantastic! He arrived exactly on time, was extremely polite, considerate and so, so knowledgeable of the area and Scotland. His driving was lovely, and quite frankly, there was absolutely nothing negative about the whole experience and we wouldn’t have changed a thing! We had a wonderful day, because Jerry showed us the wonders of Scotland. We are also so very grateful that you didn’t cancel the tour as only John and I were in attendance; that speaks to your company’s’ ethics. I will forever sing the praises of Discover Scotland Tours. We hope all Discover Scotland have a wonderful Christmas and happy New Year and we hope to return to your beautiful country sooner than later. With warm regards, Marcia & John
November 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I was on the Oban and Western Highlands tour on 10 November, and I can confidently say that my tour with Discover Scotland was the highlight of my trip! Ever since I was little, I have wanted to see the Scottish highlands; your tour allowed me to do so! We made stops at some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen, and I am so glad I booked a tour through you! Further, Michael was a phenomenal tour guide. His humor mixed with his knowledge and fitting background music made the tour that much better! Thank you all for helping make my trip to Scotland all it could be! Daniel
November 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 Day Tour
The tour was absolutely amazing! Jeff was my tour leader and he was fantastic. He answered all of my questions and he told us stories that related to the places we visited. He was personable and friendly which was important because there were only four people on this tour! I would not change anything on this trip. I got to see all of the popular places at the Isle of Skye and the Highlands, and there was plenty of time at each place for pictures and exploration. I liked that we stopped a lot at car parks on the way up, because it gave us time to stretch our legs and also take pictures of the beautiful scenery. The timing of each stop at the Isle of Skye was perfect because we had enough time at each place, and we also got to see every popular place before the sun set. This tour was perfect, I would not change a thing. Thank you! Marissa
October 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I had a wonderful time with Callum on this tour. He is the best! Very knowledgeable on the history of Scotland, and has a great sense of humour. He is always kind and thoughtful and polite, the kind of young man any mother would be proud of!! I enjoyed every part of the trip, even though Nessie did not come out. I would highly recommend this tour. Very comfortable coach, great music, what more could I ask! Beatrice
October 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
I did the Glenfinnian, Mallaig tour on October 15th and had the privilege of having it being escorted by Jeff. What an asset he is to your organization. I will definitely be booking at least one tour next year on my annual trip to Scotland. It was first rate and I think can safely say the day was thoroughly enjoyed by all my fellow passengers. Sincerely, Jane
October 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I’m pleased to say that I absolutely loved the tour! John was our tour guide and he seemed to have such genuine interest and knowledge about the area. He played songs that fit with the stories he was telling and it was a really nice time. I can’t think of anywhere I’d improve and will happily recommend Discover Scotland to all of my relatives when they come to visit (I’m from the US, but I live in Scotland). Excellent job! Best, Kate
October 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
My husband Jay and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The beauty, culture, and history of this region is quite memorable. However, for the two of us the greatest memory is Cliff. When we travel, we are not looking for a canned Disneyworld experience. Cliff brought the history of the region alive. He is a great ambassador for Scotland. He took great care to ensure every member of our group’s needs were met. Cliff pointed out key elements of each tour stop and regaled us with local information about places we passed through between stops. Connie
October 2019 – Isle of Skye 3 day tour
Our tour of the Highlands, Skye and Loch Ness was fantastic. The places we went are awe inspiring by themselves and would be wonderful to see anytime. Our tour guide Michael did a great job giving us the history and stories of the places we visited, he was a real pleasure to be around. The accommodations at the Cliffe House were perfect. My wife booked the trip on line by just looking up “bus tours of Skye” the reason she chose you over others was that you dropped us off in Glasgow rather than Edinburgh as the others did. I wasn’t real excited about doing a bus tour, I did it because my wife wanted to. Your tour guide (Michael) and your level of service and the quality of the accommodations changed my mind. We will use your company again and request Michael and we will recommend you to people we know. Thank you for a great tour. Mike
September 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands & – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
The tour was amazing! This was my first time travelling abroad and figured I would look and see if there was anything to do during the day. I did a quick search on my phone for tours of Scotland from Glasgow and your company had everything I was looking to do! I did 2 tours the Glenfinnan one with Michael and then I did a Loch Ness one with Nick. Both guides were amazing! I saw and learned so much, I couldn’t have asked for better guides! They were both funny and very knowledgeable! Amazing Company! I would definitely do other tours with your company if I come back to Scotland, there were other tours I would have liked to go on! Harlee
September 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The tour was perfect! Our driver Nick was extremely nice, well prepared, humorous and a very good driver. He made us feel comfortable, made enough stops to go to the bathroom and take pictures, and told us everything about the history and anecdotes of the places we were about to visit or along the way. He even ordered the sun for us..We could not have hoped for a better day! Thank you very much! Best regards, Brunella
September 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Our tour was excellent with John as our guide. He was gracious, funny, entertaining, knowledgable and a wonderful host. We loved all the places we visited. The timing worked perfectly throughout the day. We felt that we had the right amount of time to visit at each stop. We truly enjoyed our lunch in the sweet town of Callendar and our photo opportunity with the famous cows along the way. We had so much fun singing along to John’s music offerings (Bye, Bye Miss American Pie) and we would not change a thing! in searching for a tour, we noticed that other tour companies did not offer a lunch stop in Calendar as part of their Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle tour. This and your great reviews swayed me to book yours and I’m so glad I did. I wish you well and hope I can return to Scotland again someday. I will absolutely book another tour with your five star company! Warm regards, Gabriela
September 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1
The Outlander tour was really enjoyable. I booked it not only because of the Netflix series but because the tour promised to take us to areas of the country I would not otherwise be able to fit efficiently into my itinerary AND have someone else do the driving. The tour accomplished that and more: I wasn’t expecting but was very pleased to have Dave provide detailed historical commentary, fairly non-stop throughout the day about the areas and places we were seeing. He was most genial as well. We booked the tour after finding it online via a general search and thought it offered the best coverage for a full day’s tour at a reasonable price. We were not disappointed!
September 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I found Discover Scotlandtours from my Indonesian friend whom used your tour before and she was happy with your service. No wonder she recommended your tour as I & my husband also found your tour is amazing, from the car which is clean & comfortable, the Coran B&B which exceed my expectation and most of all, Calum as our tour guide is very nice & has a warm personality, passionate of what he’s doing, knowledgeable and made the whole team happy along the journey. It was also fun when he played song which represent every place we visited. On last day, everybody sang “Highland girls” together with him…awesome! Please keep your great work & service!! Hope help… Regards, Virita & Meifi
September 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 day tour
Cliff was our guide-thank you so very much for a rather wonderful trip. Thank you for taking the time and patience to understand what folks were hoping to see, and doing your very best to accommodate everyone’s varied tastes. i was on a trip with lovely folks with a similar interest in seeing as much as possible of Skye. I’m a Scot who lives in Edinburgh-this was a fabulous trip and whilst i’ve been to Skye a few times i realise (thank you Cliff) there’s still so much to see. Elgol and Neist point were particularly wonderful. thank you again. Great trip. kindest Regards, Denise
September 2019 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We really enjoyed our tour. Our guide, Tony, was great. He kept everyone both informed and amused as we drove everywhere. He took advantage of low traffic to give us a quick tour through Glasgow as well. The itinerary worked pretty well. We like small coaches, and this was ideal, as we didn’t spend a lot of the day waiting for people to get on/off the bus. Alan
August 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
The tour was amazing and exceeded all the expectations my family and I had going into it! Andrew was our tour guide and he made the trip even more enjoyable. He was knowledgeable and a great time along with us. I wouldn’t have changed a thing and it was my family’s favorite part of our trip to Europe! Kimberley
August 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
My husband and I had a wonderful time on your tour. It was the best way for us to see a large amount of Scotland without renting a car. Our tour guide was wonderful and we loved hearing his personal stories of growing up and living in Scotland. We found your tour through a google search and we would definitely recommend it to others. Thanks for a great tour, Erin
August 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
The trip was a delight well organised and interesting locations, Callum the tour guide was fantastic, he his knowledge of Glasgow and the location of the route was both informative and amusing, just the right balance which even entertained our 15 yearold grandson believe me this is an achievement in itself! The interim stops were always interesting and never too long in one place which we appreciated. Callum was a safe and professional drive and tour guide. Linda
August 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
The tour was excellent. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly, giving lots of little insights like exploring Luss and where to eat in Callader. He really made the experience for me. Thanks again, It was wonderful. Jade
August 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
My tour guide was John, and he was very welcoming and friendly. He explained the day’s itinery to us all very clearly. Along the journey he told us interesting facts about the area. I enjoyed the whole tour, I thought it was a good mixture of Lochs, Castle, gardens, scenery and , of course, Oban. The stop at Drivers Inn was a nice finish to the day. I would recommend your day tours to visitors without hesitation. It was very good value also. Regards Linda
August 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1 & 2
I have wanted to come to Scotland ever since we began watching Season 1 of Outlander four years ago, because of how beautiful Scotland is in the show. Going on the 2 days of tours has been a highlight of our 2 week trip to Scotland. We had Callum for the Day 2 tour, first. He was so excited about his first time leading an Outlander tour & obviously is such a fan of the show that made it fun having him as our guide. He did a great job & was a lot of fun, as well as informative. My favorite stop on that day was the Kirk where the wedding was filmed. I believe the owner’s name was Lisa. She told us so much about the filming & the experience with the cast & crew. I really enjoyed her stories. I was so happy that I chose your tour, since you are the only ones that have access to the Kirk. Our Day 2 Outlander tour was led by Cliff. We enjoyed him & he was very informative about things Outlander, as well as other things besides Outlander. Having someone who enjoys the show lead the tour is great! My favorite stops were Lallybroch & Jamie’s ghost spot for the iconic photo ops. I also enjoyed seeing Castle Leoch & hearing about how they changed it for filming. Thank you so much for 2 wonderful days! I will definitely recommend you to others. Best regards, Leesa Rigby
August 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 4 day tour
Our trip was amazing. My girlfriend and I enjoyed it even more than we thought we would. John was an absolutely excellent tour guide, he made the trip just so fun and enjoyable. Honestly, wouldn’t change anything. I’ll definitely continue to recommend discover Scotland to anyone who is interested in visiting. Thanks, Rob
August 2019 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 day tour
This was my first tour with a company… Tour was lovely and loved all the internary…Tour host was very good at his job and made it feel you were back in time!.maybe just in spirit ( dad comes from South Uist!!)….also kept music up to par with scenery and stories….Thank you! Sheena
August 2019 – Outlander Shore Excursion
We started our Outlander shore excursion early after we met our very polite driver and guide Jeff. On the way from Greenock to the east coast, Jeff surprised us with a short detour to the Wardpark Studios. The new Outlander season 5 was shot there. And we couldn´t beleive it! We got a short glimpse on four actors, one Richard Ranking, who plays Roger! We took a good picture through the fence. This was only the beginning of a gorgeous trip. Jeff put a lot more in the tour than expected. He told us a lot about history, locations, people and about Outlander. We vistited Linlithgow Palace (Wentworth Prison) a spectacular beautifull place. We drove to the soundtrack of Outlander through the forest and Midhope Castle (Lallybroch) appeared in front of us and Jeff showed us another filmset in the forest. We had a 10 minutes photostop at Blackness Castle (Fort William garrison). Our one hour lunch break was in the beautifull little village Culross (Cranesmuir). Our last stop was Doune Castle (Castle Leoch). We went inside and listened to Sam Heughan´s (Jamie´s) voice in our audio guide. Our guide Jeff invested more of his time and knowledge than he had to, so he fullfilled wishes, we even didn´t know of and brought us happy and perfect on time back to our ship. Jeff, you made my day!!! Thank you for an unforgettable day in scotland. Hedda
July 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I have to tell you that Stuart, on our Loch Ness and Highlands trip, went Way Beyond what is normally considered informative and gave my grandson and I a trip we will always remember. It was those little things that he did to assure my grandson and I saw every detail of the trip, especially at Urguhart Castle on Loch Ness. If we are lucky enough to come back to your country we will definitely be requesting him on any further tours. Your tour bus was perfect in that it was small enough to be personal and comfortable enough to make the trip enjoyable. Thanks again, Elaine
July 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
We had a wonderful day. Our guide, Jerry, was excellent – punctual at pick up and drop off, safe driver and entertained us throughout the day and gave us interesting information. Although we are relatively local and had already visited these locations, our friends accompanying us were from Brisbane, and we were keen to give them a good impression of Scotland. Jerry certainly did that, and was a credit to Scotland’s hospitality industry. The coach was really comfortable too, which was useful as it was a long day. All in all, a 10/10 experience. Many thanks, Christine
July 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
What a wonderful tour, wonderful experience and wonderful guide Andy. The trip was more than I could have hoped for. I got to stop at The Three Sisters in Glencoe which is a spiritual spot for one of my USA friends. The trip was perfectly balanced between driving with narration and old and current Scottish music, history, photo ops and exploring Oban, Inverary Castle and Drover’s Inn. Seana
July 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Michael was fantastic, and made it an amazing day out. My wife and I split the week between Edinburgh and Glasgow and were weighing the options for a tour in either location. After doing some research we found your website, and the offerings for the tour out of Glasgow, that hit my wife’s one wish, Highland Coos. Getting to feed Haymitch, Honey and Heather were the high point for my wife over the course of the week, and she was almost as tickled to find out that we also got to visit Winterfell (We weren’t Outlander fans, but she’s been watching every night since we’ve been home). Michael was an amazing and engaging host for the day, and spent the day cracking us up and sharing his knowledge with us. Thank you again for an amazing experience, and thank Michael for us again. Bill
July 2019 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. I can’t remember the driver’s name but he was very knowledgeable, great personality and made it a great day. Everything went well and we were back to the ship in plenty of time. The bus was awesomely clean & comfortable as well. Thanks for a great day!!! Lisa
July 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Fantastic experience for the Isle of Skye three day tour with our guide Jerry. The trip was worth every penny spent. This is coming from students who have saved up a long time to be able to make the trip. For the amount spent and the numerous places we were able to pack in during the trip, I would highly recommend sticking to DiscoverScotland Tours. Booking process was seamless via the website. Accommodation at Sandra’s B&B (Kyleakin) was lovely and cosy. The small van (maximum of 16 guests) ensured that the group did not have to wait long periods of time for group movement. The vans even had USB ports, perfect for charging our phones after spamming pictures of the beautiful scenery of The Highlands. Jerry was an amazing guide – friendly, knowledgeable and funny. He took care of all our requests (including stopping for pictures with Hieland Coos). Every major attraction we drove past, he would give us relavant background information about the place and this would often be accompanied by timely soundtrack (i.e. driving through the highlands with Adele’s Skyfall playing in the background). Knowing that some of us were outlander fans, he would often point out references as well. During a short traffic jam on the way back to Edinburgh, he came up with a quiz to help “kill time”, help making the trip even more so interactive. Would highly recommend the DiscoverScotland for anyone interested in a reliable, trustworthy and affordable tour company. Best Regards, Michelle
July 2019 – Isles of Mull, Iona & the Highlands 4 day tour
Our tour guide/driver John was absolutely wonderful and accomodated our every need…including taking us up to our B&B as we could not walk due to an injured foot. We also had a very special group of only 7 who got on so well..and again, credit John’s great sense of humour and vast knowlege of Scottish history for getting us all involved. I found your company online just by googling Iona visits..as that was our main purpose. The weather was so fabulous that we also did the Staffa boat trip the same day. Pity we had only one day there as it was worth several days.Thank you so much for offering the experience of a small coach, more than excellent visits and a driver/guide who competantly led us through every experience with such expertise and kindness. I would definitely come again! Best wishes and continue to keep this a personable and memorable experience. Velma and Mary
June 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I recently did the trip to the highlands and Glencoe. I could not speak any more highly of the trip. David the tour guide was knowledgeable, helpful and passionate three of the best qualities to have for a tour guide. The bus was clean and in good working order. What we saw was great. 10 out of 10. If I ever come back to Scotland I will definitely be doing another tour. Thank you, Patrick
June 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I’m happy to tell you how much I enjoyed the tour. I found it via your website and booked it well in advance of my coming to the UK. I have to say that I appreciated every aspect of the tour: being picked up at my hotel, the pace of the tour, the comfort of the bus, and the choice of places we stopped. But most of all, Gerry the tour guide deserves much credit for the enjoyment of the tour. I especially liked the music he played, the stories he told, and the songs he sang! He brought everyone together that way, and it really created a friendly environment. I would definitely recommend your tours to others and whenever I’m back in Scotland I will try to include your tours in my plans. Thank you! Kevin
June 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
My partner had always wanted to do this trip and we were so glad that we booked with you guys because we had such a great time! This was definitely the highlight of our trip to Scotland! Michael, our tour guide, was very informative with a great sense of humour, which made the day very enjoyable. All the places we stopped at had a story behind them, teaching us the history of Scotland and leading us to the famous Harry Potter train for the journey back! I would highly recommend doing this fun day trip if you go to Scotland! P.S don’t forget to get the butter beer! Thanks, Delaney
June 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
I made a last minute booking for the Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle tour for my adult son and I. They were very quick to respond to questions, and offered great advice for us to get to the meeting point (we were staying outside of town, and needed to take ScotRail to the Grand Central Hotel). Our tour guide was prompt and courteous, and made us feel welcome and at ease immediately. Nick was fantastic, offering colorful and interesting commentary throughout the tour, interspersed with a mixture of music by Scottish bands. At the conclusion of the tour, Nick offered advice for dinner, which was spot on. A very enjoyable day. Highly recommended. Alan
June 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1
I loved the Outlander Tour! Our tour leader was great, the mini coach was very comfortable and I was grateful for how much we could see and do in just one day. Amazing value for money 🙂 Andrea
June 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 2
We absolutely loved the tour. All of it! Our tour guide was great & had a great sense of humor. We wish we were there longer otherwise we would’ve booked another one of your tours offered on your website. Lana
June 2019 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Tour was great- chosen because of itinerary and smaller group size, we don’t like the big bus excursions organised by the ship. Tour leader was excellent all round – driving and commentary. We enjoyed all the stops and got to Luss before the bus crowds. Stirling Castle was a highlight. We only ever buy excursions that are refundable if the ship does not call into the port – this was clearly stated on the website so good on you for taking this initiative (in other ports I had to email the various companies to clarify the refund policy). Very satisfied. Thanks Judy
June 2019 – Isle of Skye 3 day tour
I can quite happily say that my experience with Discover Scotland Tours was fantastic. My tour guide Nick was brilliant and went above and beyond to make sure everyone had the best experience and got to see as much of Isle of Skye and surrounding areas. The weather was great which of course is quite unheard of in Scotland but I can honestly say the view points and little added extra bits like the Croft tour was amazing. We were a mixed bunch and got along so well and although I was on my own Nick made sure everyone got involved and got to know one another. I was a little late to meet the bus in Edinburgh as I got lost (typical!) But Nick didn’t make me feel awkward in anyway but just welcomed me and made jokes throughout the tour! I had THE BEST time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a mixture of adventure, relaxation and a cultured experience. Many thanks again and Nick is a top bloke who deserves a BIG pat on the back! Kind regards Yasmin.
June 2019 – Isle of Skye 4 day tour
Firstly thanks for the exrta assistance with organising my trip at such shiirt notice. I had a ball on this trip , straight away as i got on the coach with this small group and meeting them and John our driver, subject matter expert, entrrtainer !!!!! John does sucha great job running this tour and has fsntastic people skills as i can vouch each and every passenger will say the same. The scenic travels were amazing and a comfortable timetable and enjoyed that part, alot of group decisions made and plenty of sore ribs from constant laughter !!!! The B and B accommodation in Skye was fantastic and well fed and watered !!! I found this trip on the internet ssnd no problems highly recommending this to my friends. Cheers Jamie
May 2019 – Outlander Shore Excursion
First off, I want to say THANK YOU! This tour was as advertised and more. Our tour included Blackness Castle, Doune Castle, Culross, Midhope and a drive through Glasgow as part of a cruise ship excursion from the Crown Princess. It was a small tour, with 8 passengers, and a tour leader that I will never forget. He amused us, shared personal stories as well as sharing an extensive knowledge of the area. There was a lot of driving and it never felt like a long day…All of us enjoyed the area so much that I plan to return in the future. He also drove us by Stirling Castle, allowing us picture opportunities we didn’t get the day we actually visited the castle. I will definitely contact Discover Scotland again when we come back. I’m a huge Outlander fan and the tour offered a good amount of area history along with visits to some of my favorite locations from the show. We spent a lot of the drive time discussing the show and recounting things we saw. Sadly I can’t remember the name of the tour leader. But he definitely is good at his job. Thank you so much for sharing your country with us! Marla
May 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We greatly enjoyed our tour! Our guide Andy was funny and very knowledgeable. He provided a great commentary throughout, hitting on everyone’s different tastes. While we were interested in general history, he was also able to discuss the Highlander tv sites with another guest and we greatly enjoyed the music he played for us as well. The small group size made it easy for Andy to tailor his talks to the tastes of all of us. The highlight for my husband was when we stopped to take pictures of some Highland cattle, and Andy even provided us food to feed Seamus the cow and his friends! We greatly enjoyed ourselves, and would be glad to recommend the tour to others. Thanks for a great trip! Amelia
May 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We signed up for the 3 day Isle of Skye tour, and enjoyed every minute of it. The selection of places visited were well curated, and there was sufficient breadth and depth to the itinerary. Special credit should go to our tour guide/leader Callum. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, entertaining, and managed the time very well throughout the tour. He is naturally gifted in tour leading, even at his age. I am not sure how DiscoverScotlandTours found him, but he is gold. In particular, there were several slightly difficult requests from some of our tour members, but Callum always handled them firmly, but very professionally. That left us deeply impressed. We had actually initially booked the Isle of Skye tour with another (larger) tour company, but were told later that there were no slots left. We are every bit grateful that that happened, which gave us the chance to sign up with DiscoverScotlandTours instead. I do believe that the small size of the company is not its weakness, but very much its strength. Tour groups can be kept small and homely, and that helped made the trip all the more enjoyable. We cannot recommend enough the tour, and Callum as tour leader, to anyone looking to explore the Isle of Skye. Best, Benny
May 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had a great trip, and have seen beautifull sights. Our tour guide was jeff, a great personality with a huge knowledge of everything scottish.. history, nature an landscape, music etcetera. I truly think that he turned a nice trip into a great expirience! I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting glasgow. Vriendelijke groeten, Hans
May 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
My family and I took the one day Oban tour from Glasgow with Discover Scotland Tours on May 15, 2019. Our tour guide, John provided an informative, safe and entertaining tour through the Highlands and into Oban. He was very knowledgeable and told great stories to enhance the experience. He was also very generous in stopping at unplanned areas to accommodate photo opportunities, his patience was appreciated by all. We would all highly recommend Discover Scotland Tours. Best regards, Rob, Debbie and Joey
May 2019 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
Our tour with Micheal, with his great sense of Scottish humour, to the highlands was really exceptional! We love every moment of it, including all the “extras” thrown in with “excess” time our group had. Many thanks to Michael! Regards, Ken & Miu
May 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
I booked the tour having seen a couple of TV shows which included trips aboard the steam train. I then looked your site up online. The tour was excellent, a full day of seeing the sights with plenty of detail from the tour leader whose name I believe was Nick. He was not only well informed but considerate in terms of stops for photo ops, comfort breaks and so on. A good selection of music added to the ambiance. As I had booked this as an early birthday surprise for my husband I was very happy with my choice. Regards Margaret
April 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I went on the one day trip to Loch Ness, Glencoe and highlands tour on 10 April. The tour guides Michael and Callum were brilliant and kept us entertained throughout the whole day with their stories and Scottish music. The highlight was whilst Michael was telling a story regarding how one of the trees lost its top due to a fighter jet flying too low some years ago and just as the story was being told an actual jet flew past!! Amazing. The tour bus only had 15 passengers which made the whole experience more friendly and the convenience of being picked up at my hotel was an added bonus. Will recommend this trip to anyone I know visiting Glasgow as worth every penny. Julie
April 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
It is my pleasure to provide you with a quick “Thank you” for a fantastic experience during an unforgettable day spent with Discover Scotland on Oban tour. We booked the tour last minute for the following day. Upon meeting David the tour driver, we discovered that there are no other passengers. We asked if the tour will be cancelled David answered no, you wil have a privare tour! And private tour we had! David was not only charming but also extremely knowlegeable and pationate about Scottish history. My sister and I enjoyed the tour, history lesson and David’s company all day, unhurried and professional. This was my second experiece with Discover Scotland tour. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering a day tour from Glasgow. Katarzyna
April 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had an amazing time on our day trip! We spent 2 weeks in the UK, approx half in London and half in Scotland. We spent our last day before flying back to the states with you and it was one of my favorites! Our guide, Callum, was so much fun! He was personable, friendly, knowledgeable and funny. We wished we had thought to take a picture with him. My husband mentioned afterward that he felt like he’d made a new friend :). He customized the trip to what we expressed most interest in, and shared Scottish music, history and legends with us. The scenery was amazing! I found you on TripAdvisor and picked your organization because of the smaller size tours and the fact that you would pick us up at our hotel. If we make it back to the UK, we would love to do another tour with you! Carolyn
April 2019 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
My friend and I went on the trip together. It was my birthday gift to her. She is a Harry Potter fan and she found the trip online. We really enjoyed it. Andrew, the guide, was delightful, a knowledgeable, friendly, personable, accommodating and good natured man. We were the only Scots on the trip and we were amazed how much we learned about our own country during his commentary. We really couldn’t fault the day at all, and would highly recommend your company. In fact, we have already recommended it to various people. Best wishes Michaela
April 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1
it was a nice tour. And the guide has been telling us many things about the scotish history which is very imformative. I will definetely come again with family in the future. Thanks. Li
April 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Trip was fantastic, it was nice that it felt like the group had a say in where we went/what we did as opposed to following a strict itinerary. Cliff was a great driver and really patient and kind with all of the group, he also told some great stories and kept us informed and entertained. Please pass on my thanks to him. Cheers, Kathryn
March 2019 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We would like to thank everyone for our fantastic trip to Loch ness and the highlands on 31st of march. We were so lucky with the weather, it was beautiful, and the scenery was amazing. I don’t think the day could have gone any better, and we would definitely do the tour again, and recommend it to anyone visiting Scotland. My husband is Scottish, and says you never appreciate what’s on your doorstep. Our driver Andy was brilliant, and made the whole tour very enjoyable. We booked our trip after reading about it on your website. Thank you once again for a great day, and we’ll see you next time we’re in Scotland. Linda
March 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
My tour was Absoutely breathtaking. My guide john was fantastic and very knowledgable on the history of the Highlands. The value for what I recieved was also incredible. It was an all day affair which I recommend highly in fact my husband wants to now come see the beautiful land of Scotland and if thats the case we will be booking another tour. I took this trip as a holiday of a lifetime and it has exceeded all my expectations and beyond. Kindly Laurie
March 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
The tour was AMAZING! I really have no complaints, our guide was great, everything we saw was wonderful. Next time I come to Scotland, I will surely book another trip with Discover Scotland. 🙂 Thank you for everything! Dani
March 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
It was a fantastic trip!! We were six people on the bus, nice small group. The driver Andrew was amazing! He told us all the stories about different kings and history of Scotland, the landscape, mountains, volcanos “etc. He is very knowledgeable, a great asset to the company. The bus was brand new with charging ports. We went to 32 different locations! We took photos at each location. Felt like it was a bespoke trip! I’d highly recommend this company! Uvaish
February 2019 – Loch Ness Glencoe & the Highlands
Was a great tour, really enjoyed small tour size, attractions, scottish music, enough time at each location, tour guide was great, so sorry I forgot his name though! Have already recommended. Great value for money which is rare these days! Thanks again, Elaine
February 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1
The tour was fantastic !! The tour guide said it was his first time doing the outlander tour and you never would have known! He was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. The tour was wonderful with plenty of time at each stop to walk around and explore and to take pictures. Would recommend the tour to everyone not just fans of the show !!! Sarah
February 2019 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I take pleasure to answer you that I enjoyed a lot my trip in Scotland with your organisation. All was great : the landscapes, the halts along the roads, the visits, the breaks for café or lunch … Andy has been a wonderful tour leader : excellent driver, interesting commentator, at a time cultivated and distracting, charming … And I add that he was a very kind person, helpful and … “so Scottish” ! So that I’ll conserve a marvelous remember of my three days. Marie
February 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond
The Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park Tour was great we had a fantastic day, cold but sunny weather obliged us. We thought the tour was great and the tour guides knowledge superb not just about the castle but about Scottish history and about what is happening now. We want to come back to Scotland sometime soon and will most definitely will be booking another tour. Thanks again to you and your team. regards Mel
January 2019 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond
We did have a great day traveling with Discover Scotland. We had a funny tour guide, who knew a lot of information and made this tour one we will remember. This tour had it all, the beautiful landscapes, castles and cities. We will recommend this tour to others. Kind regards, Joanne
January 2019 – Loch Ness Glencoe & the Highlands
I would like to say that I really enjoyed our day-tour.It was amazing! The guide was perfect in every detail: music, comments, everything. The itinerary was stunning. Congratulations to all of you from Discovery Scotland for the perfect job! Best Regards, Felix
January 2019 – Outlander Day Tour 1
I am honestly delighted I chose your company and the Outlander tour. I had visited two of the sites on the tour myself but chatting with David, I learned a lot more about Scottish history and culture than I expected. As a fan of the show, it was fun to see the locations but I must admit I also chose the tour as it offered the chance to see some of the Scottish countryside. I could have hired a car and driven to some of these locations but the tour was a more relaxed, easy going way to see castles, palaces, monuments, towns and even the Kelpies! Thank you all for a great day out. I would highly recommend Discover Scotland Tours for its great value and informative guides. All the best for the future, Ciara
January 2019 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We do not have enough positive things to say about our tour. Andy was our guide and he was terrific. I felt like we had our own personal history professor guiding us along and filling our time with rich and wonderful stories of life in Glasgow and The Highlands. It has been a dream of mine, from a very young age, to visit the Scottish Highlands and now I have fulfilled that dream. So much was packed into that 6 hour tour but it never felt rushed or forced. You have an amazing package here and we hope many will sign on for your tours.When we return to Scotland, we will for certain use your company again. Sincerely, Polly, Kenneth and Joelle
December 2018 – Loch Ness Glencoe & the Highlands
We have nothing but good things to say about our tour with Natalie (I think that was her name)! She was so engaging and pointed out all the sites of interest to us in a way that made it fun to learn about them. We felt like we were in good hands and were guided in a way that was informative and not pushy. We also loved how she would take the time to teach us about Scottish culture and tie in the sites that we were seeing along the way into a narrative that was easy to understand. She obviously put a lot of thought into picking out the songs she played for us while on the bus, as they tied in so seamlessly into whichever story that she happened to be telling us at the time. Kudos to her! The highlight of our tour was definitely Urquhart castle. We loved exploring the castle ruins and learning about the history of the site. It was also a good stop for us to buy some souvenirs to take home. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone thinking of exploring Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands, and would not hesitate to book with your company again in the future when we return to Scotland for another visit! Best wishes, Linda and Yuan
December 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We enjoyed a wonderful tour with David. Scotland’s beauty speaks for itself. However, David enhanced this with extensive knowledge, good humor and fun anecdotes. I’m so glad we took this tour. If we had rented a car and driven ourselves, we would have missed all of the history and stories that made it so much more interesting and fun. When I visit Scotland again, I will look forward to booking with you, and request David again. (And I brought a brochure home for a friend who is planning to visit Scotland.) Thank you for a great experience. Carol
December 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond
My sister and I absolutely loved our tour. Michael was funny, well informed, and a good driver. Dolores
December 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I had a fantastic time on my 3 days tour with you. Our tour guide Cliff was amazing, had a lot of knowledge and told us very interesting stories about the island etc. He always asked for our requests and desires and changed the plan spontaneously according to them. It was a great time and if I will return to Scotland again I will definitely choose your company again. Thank you very much. Best regards, Fabian
November 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I just wanted to take a few minutes to say how much my daughter my wife and myself enjoyed our trip. First of all, our driver Stewart was wonderful. Polite, cheerful and kept things moving along. He was also incredibly informative. There wasn’t one dull moment! Thank you Stewart!!! Needless to say, Scotland is a beautiful country and I hope we have the opportunity to visit again in the future. The only down side about the trip was that it had to end so soon! Tony
November 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The tour was flawless. My girlfriend and I received a warm welcome from our guide, Gerry, who ensured we were comfortably seated. As it turned out, the other party booked onto the tour had phoned in to cancel. We were pleasantly surprised to learn that this would not affect the day’s tour, it was to go ahead as planned with just the two of us. Gerry was very entertaining and informative throughout, as well as giving us just the right amount of time to explore the various sites by ourselves. All the stops were well chosen to provide us with opportunities to take photographs of a range of breathtaking scenery, and to give us time to stretch our legs and refresh ourselves. A superb one day tour. Keep up the great work, team! Best regards, Simon
November 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We enjoyed our tour very much. It turned out we were the only two people on the tour that day, quite unexpected but it made it all the more fun. Natalie our tour leader was excellent, we couldn’t have asked for a better day and we saw so much of the incredible Scottish countryside. I would highly recommend this tour, you see lochs, mountains, forests, lovely little villages/towns and of course incredible historic sites, all in one day. Many thanks, Louise
November 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day tour
Everything was absolutely perfect. The tour leader was fantastic. He knew what he was explaining and he enjoys in his job. He was also careful about us. The tour was perfect. Enough time to visit every place and we saw the most important attractions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour or even this company. I’m planning my next tour to the Highlands and I’ll definitely book with you. Kind regards, Karen
November 2018 – Isle of Skye 3 day tour
Looking for a weekend tour around the Isle of Skye, my boyfriend and I came across Discover Scotland Tours’ 3 Day Tour from Glasgow – and boy are we glad we did! Nick was an incredible tour guide – very knowledge, entertaining and accommodating. We were able to stop at an abundance of natural and historical sites, and Nick provided history and commentary on them all. Best of all was the mystery stop on day 2!! I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wishing to explore The Highlands and Skye, it is well worth the money. Thank you again to Nick for a weekend not to forget! Marlene
October 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I would 100% recommend it to any friends, family or acquaintances who visit Scotland in the future. It was the highlight of our three day trip to Glasgow without a shadow of a doubt – unbeatable value for money, excellent tour guide (he was entertaining, friendly, approachable – honestly cannot praise him highly enough! His character and knowledge played a big part in making the trip so memorable) and I was very impressed with the number of locations we were able to visit in one day. I loved that we were part of a small group (only 12 of us I think), as it made the whole experience more intimate and enjoyable. I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful experience and my partner feels the same way. Many thanks, Lucy
October 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Nick was an outstanding driver and tour guide. He was funny and engaging, he remembered everyone’s names right off the bat, and was very personable. I could not have imagined someone doing a better job than he did. He made the experience comfortable and I feel like I learned so much as well. Could not rate him more highly! The tour itself was beautiful. I saw so many things and I really appreciated the smaller bits of information about the areas we passed through (e.g., if a movie scene was filmed somewhere). I think the amount of time spent at each location was perfect. Overall, the tour was a magical experience. 11/10. Tamara
October 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Our Discover Scotland Tour to Stirling Castle, Loch Lomond, Doune Castle was fabulous! Jeff was a great tour guide, and we enjoyed our trip thoroughly! We especially enjoyed his love and enthusiasm for the Highland Hairy Coos!! Slainte! Laura
October 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day tour
I went on the Outlander Inspired day tour last Monday with my daughter and we had such a great day. Our driver/guide was David and he was so pleasant and helpful as well as knowledgeable. There were only 8 of us on the comfortable 16 seater bus. David was so informative about the history of Scotland and of Outlander of course. We visited Doune Castle, Midhope Castle, Blackness Castle, Culross and Falkland, all of which featured in the series. We thoroughly enjoyed our day out and would definitely recommend Discover Scotland Tours. Kind regards, Sarah
October 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
My wife and I had a wonderful time on our Discover Scotland tour. The sights going up to Mallaig were awesome in the truest sense of the word. We were very pleased with everything, from booking to embarking on the trip. Cliff was fantastic, BTW. Very friendly and knowledgeable. And he handled those narrow roads in that big bus with ease. Thanks again for everything. We can’t get back to Scotland soon enough. Take care. Anthony
September 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
My husband and I enjoyed the day very much our driver Jeff was brilliant very knowledgeable interesting and funny he really made the whole experience a great day out. We had driven 360 miles the day before and after just to do the trip so we really did enjoy it. Thank Jeff very much and of course you guys for organizing it. Regards, Lindsey and Phil
September 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We had an excellent tour to Skye and an excellent Tour guide with David. His knowledge of local history and places, together with his friendly personality made the trip. The stop offs were great, the highlights for us being Luss, Loch Ness and castle Eilan Donan. Skye was a beautiful Island with amazing views and Walks. Perfect trip, will definitely recommend to friends and family and certainly travel with Discover Scotland again. Thankyou. Mel and Dawn
September 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park tour
The Stirling Castle tour has been very interesting for me and my family, and the Tour Leader couldn’t have been more patient and helpful with us all.: he has given us a lot of interesting information about the places we were going to visit, drove very carefully and put on some lovely Scottish music to entertain us while his attention needed to be completely concentrated on the driving through the most challenging parts of the road. I have been very pleased with your offering us two options for the afternoon since my brother was interested in the distillery, but my teenage daughter was not, so visiting Doune Castle was a real treat for her. The tour’s organisation has been flawless, and I couldn’t praise you more for that. Best regards, Laura
September 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed your one day tour. The scenery was beautiful as was the city of Oban, the Lochs, Inveraray Castle and Glencoe. The tour group was nice as was our driver/tour guide. Can’t remember his name but he kept us completely informed on Scotch history etc. along the way. The bus was nice and the right size for a small group tour. There were enough stops for rest and stretching. This was our first trip to Scotland and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Wayne
September 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
The Outlander tour was EXCELLENT! Nick was our tour guide he was fun informative, answered questions appropriately, interactive with everyone there, we were able to hear him clearly and when he was able he walked with the group at some stops and explained things which was excellent. We had no issues with pick up or drop off, everything went smoothly. I highly recommend that tour and our tour guide. Thank you, Jennifer
September 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Gerry was the best and we loved every second of our trip. The best part of our trip was the sunshine on our Loch Ness cruise, but we didn’t mind the bit of Scottish rain also since we had our rain gear on 😄 If and when we come back to Scotland, we’ll be sure to come your tour again! Greetings, Sonja
August 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
My boyfriend, Peter, and I had John from Glasgow as a tour guide and we were blown away by both his passion and knowledge. He was an amazing tour guide and we could tell that he really cared about the content he was delivering. He went above and beyond by bringing food for the wooly cows, recommending restaurants, and providing additional insight as he guided us on the pathways of these sights. His knowledge of Gaelic also really impressed us as well and made the experience that much richer. John was great at engaging everyone on board and even played music to satisfy everybody’s needs. We will definitely be recommending Discover Scotland to family and friends, and will do many more tours with your company when we return to Scotland! This tour was the highlight of our trip and it was all thanks to John. Thank you again, Hannah and Peter
August 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
It was a wonderful and unforgettable moment. Thanks to you and to all your team for letting us have such a great experience. I want particularly to send a warm thank-you to Nick, our tour leader. He is so enthusiastic and very knowledgeable.Don’t change anything. I think everything is already perfect. Discoverscotlandtours desserves to be widely known. Great success to you! Thank you again. Kind regards, Laurent
August 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park tour
It was great! Can’t remember our bus driver’s name but he gave us lots of background history and also made a couple of unscheduled photo stops. Everything went well and it was most enjoyable. Would recommend and give it five stars ✨ Thanks, Debra.
August 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
It was great! My wife and I really enjoyed the tour. We saw fantastic sceneries and had time to take many photos. The driver and guide was great. He had an impressive knowledge of Scotland’s history and culture. We hope to go back to Scotland next year and we will definitely use your company again. Yours sincerely. Christophe
August 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
Everything was just absolutely perfect. It was really nice to be able to pick and choose what we wanted to see and go at our own pace. It was the perfect trip for Outlander and non-Outlander fans as well. Our guide was wonderful and had great knowledge of the areas toured. It was also competitively priced compared to other tours offered by other companies. Tristan
August 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
I throughly enjoyed my trip to Mallig and Glenfinnan. Our bus driver Michael was hilarious, friendly and informative. I would recommend your tours to anyone who travels to Scotland. Sincerely, Mitzi
August 2018 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
My friends and I enjoyed our tour with Geoff very much. We saw so many unique things, beautiful scenery, loved all of the history he shared with us and enjoyed his sense of humor. It was a great tour when you have only one day to see the Glasgow area and surrounding countryside. Loved the Highland Coos and the “Guinness Lake” where the “Vikings” were being filmed and many other sights. Thank you so much, Brenda and Greg
July 2018 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
This tour was fantastic from start to finish. Our tour guide, Stuart, was very knowledgeable and pleasant and we had a wonderful day with him. He gave us lots of history and time to see all the sights that were of interest. The small bus was very comfortable for our group of 15 and just perfect for this type of tour. I would definitely recommend Discover Scotland Tours to others. Susan
July 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
The tour was great, wonderful places to visit, all related to Outlander tv show. The driver was friendly, funny and his explanations were very interesting. I liked that the schedule of the trip was rather flexible, depending on our needs. I would recommend this tour to my friends. Kind regards, Carlota
July 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
I just want to praise Your driver David for not only a professional smooth drive but the level of attentiveness & courtesy He showed from the first moment to the final drop off to all the passengers . My partner Nicky & Myself had a fantastic day & that was in no small part due to Your driver who pointed out places & histories on the entire journey making it a wonderful learning experience & He is a definite asset to Your team & We wanted to thank Him again for a great job well done. Regards Paul & Nicky
July 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Our three day tour to the Isle of Skye with Discover Scotland was a wonderful experience. Much of the credit goes to our tour leader, Andrew (and some to the good weather too). Andrew was cheerful, witty and knowledgeable, be it historical anecdotes or good eating places or geological tidbits. His commentary added a depth to our experience. The pace of the tour was unhurried, which is how we prefer it. Our two nights stay at Almara House in Kyleakin was great too. Full marks to the team, and keep up the good work! Regards, Zarin and Mohsin
July 2018 — Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park tour
Our guide Michael was great, full of information, enthusiasm and a great sense of humor. All in all we had a great day, saw and learned a lot about Scotland. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone who wants a tour with a personal touch. Tin
July 2018 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Vicki and I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed your tour. Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful and full of very helpful information. Thank you! And please continue to provide your fantastic tours! Sincerely, Keith and Vicki
July 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had a wonderful time with your driver Geoff (or Jeff). He was knowledgeable and a very proud Scotsman. I would highly recommend him as well as your tour services to anyone seeking to enjoy the beauty of Scotland. Hopefully we’ll see you next year on another tour. Be well. Sincerely, Paul and Kathy
July 2018 — Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We had an amazing time on the tour and were so glad we chose to take it. We travel a lot and normally we rent a car and drive all over the country we have the opportunity to visit. This time we decided to give the bus tour a shot. We were thrilled. John was amazing from the time he picked us up at our hotel to the time he dropped us off. He is a true asset to your company. The scenery in your country is breath taking. The tour spots were perfect and the timing was also great. We joked between ourselves the whole tour that we are now tour bus people thanks to this experience! I recommend this tour to anyone who want to see the amazing west highlands of Scotland, eat great food and have a memorable time doing it. Thanks so much for the great service and we will see you again the next time we are in Scotland. Josh
June 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
We loved our tour!! My daughter, who is the Harry Potter fan, is the one who initially wanted to do this tour because it had the steam train included. I loved it too, I am a fan, just not overboard like she is. We loved John our tour guide, he was very entertaining with stories and facts about your beautiful country! It was a long day but well worth is for what you get to see! Thanks, Jackie
June 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I took the 3 Day Tour of Skye, the Highlands and Loch Ness in June. My daughter had done it last August and recommended it highly. She was right. It was wonderful! The 3 days were full of interesting information, breath-taking scenery, and a sense of the wonder and magic of that part of Scotland. Our tour leader, Cliff, greeted us with a smile that lit up the three days – even in the rain. He was a delightful story teller and kept me amused and engaged. I also appreciated his skilled driving and confidence as he steered our group up and down hill and dale. He always offered a helping hand and made it seem that he had the best job in the world. At the Winkle Beach B&B, Fiona was a fine hostess and made sure our room and breakfast exceeded our expectations. The view of the Skye Bridge from our room was magnificent. Thank you for providing those three beautiful days. I’d love to make it an annual event. Best, Donna
June 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
It was great! . This was an excellent your very well thought out route wise and David was brilliant would definitely do this again and will be recommending to friends and family likewise for the Glenfinnan tour. Christine
June 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had a wonderful time! Our guide was amazing. We will be back and would definitely book another tour with your company. Thanks, John
June 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Our day tour with your driver Stuart was really enjoyable. We saw a lot of interesting locations and Stuart gave an excellent commentary on the way. The weather was glorious and the day could not have been better. I can’t think of any way that you could have improved the tour and I will have no hesitation in recommending your tour company to all who ask. A great day out – thank you Stuart. Yours, Paul
June 2018 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
We enjoyed our shore excursion tremendously. Our tour guide was Andy, and he shared so much information about the history of the areas we visited. He was also gracious when dealing with an obnoxious woman on our excursion. We loved everything we saw–Loch Lomond, the winding, twisting drive through the hills, the hairy cows :), and Stirling Castle. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone going to Scotland. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience! The Perkins and Zachary Familie
June 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had an absolutely amaazing time at the tour. Andrew (i think was the name of our tour guide) was soo nice,courteous very engaging and entertaining.He really put in the extra effort to make sure we had a nice time. Would definitely book you guys next time we decide to take any tours to “discover Scotland” (we stay in Glasgow so will do it often). Thanks a ton for an amazing day! wishing you & your team a nice day. Regards, Ridhima
May 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We had an excellent trip with Cliff who was a marvellous tour guide. He looked after us very well and was extremely informative. The route was well planned and we enjoyed all that was on offer. The B and B on Skye was very good and we are very satisfied customers. Thank you for arranging it all. Ann and John.
May 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had booked a day trip to Lochness, Glencoe and the Highlands. We are delighted to say that we had a fantastic time with the discover Scotland crew. All the places were really worth the visit and Andy and his team were fantastic behind the wheels, not only allowing us time to see around these places but also provided us with running commentary on the history, culture and stories behind every place. I would highly recommend Discover Scotland the next time you think of exploring Scotland in smaller groups! Keep it up! Regards, Anupam
May 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
It was EXCELLENT!! Especially Andrew, was the most knowledgeable and pleasant tour guide we have ever had. Thank you again for everything, Sincerely, Ali
May 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
The Highlands bus tour was the best bus tour I have ever taken. Michael was our guide and driver, and he was AMAZING. He was very funny and knowledgeable, with impeccable timing on his joke delivery. The tour was well-paced and the views were gorgeous. We were lucky to go on a sunny day and the route that Michael drove was spectacular. We drove up to Mallaig, stopping at Glenfinnan first, and then took the Jacobite Steam Train to Fort William, where Michael picked us up. Although the route was the same from Fort William to Glasgow, the views were from the opposite direction and thus totally different. Michael made it very easy to take the train by buying and sorting out our tickets. I highly recommend Discover Scotland Tours. Thank you to Michael and Discover Scotland for the incredible experience. Best, Rachel
April 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Michael! We had with us our two children aged 11&8, and they said it was their fav part of our ten day Europe trip. We visited many places including London England, Edinburgh & Glasgow Scotland, as well as Dublin Ireland and all four of us would love to return to the highlands some day. Michael was very informative and super friendly, we’re very fortunate to have had someone so knowledgeable on Scotland to be our driver. We found out about the tours while searching online about things to do in Glasgow. Thank you very much! The Palmer family
April 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park tour
The whole experience was above what we expected since we weren’t driving in Glasgow and was able to travel around almost a quarter of the country with somebody like Jeff as a tour guide – who seem to know almost every tree on the forest by their names and a history about every building along our way. What a privilege to have met him ! Jeff & his team have this gracious sense of humour that made our tour tremendously funny. I recalled suggesting to them personally, not to change anything. I have plans to come discover the highlands further in the near future and who knows see the legendary Loch Ness monster myself. All thanks once again to the opportunity your tour has to offer. Christopher
April 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Discover Scotland Tours honestly was the highlight of my 3 and a half months in Europe. I have no complaints at all. The value was unbeatable, the planning was great as well as the bus itself (brand new!), and our tour guide David, I believe, was nothing short of excellency. He really made everyone feel welcome and was very knowledgeable and funny. I actually heard about the company through a friend. Hope this was helpful, and thanks for an amazing trip! Victoria
April 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
The tour last Saturday with Nick was fantastic. There were only 3 of us so we were very spoilt.Nick was friendly, informative & very professional. He ensured we had access to all we needed. He gave us background to both Outlander & Scottish history & we saw all the sites on the tour. He made sure that I , as the oldest member of the tour was helped so that I could enjoy it all – 4 that I am very grateful. The highlights were Midhope Castle & Culross 4 me. Rae
April 2018 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
Our trip to the Scottish Highlands was THE highlight of our 2 week stay in the UK. Andrew was our driver/person and he was really the best. He cares about his guests and his country. He shared other ideas with us for our stay which we took advantage of–he truly loves what he does and it shows. The tour itself couldn’t have been better. We had some chance to get out and walk around and fit in all the sights. We are NOT tour people but the description and, frankly the Jacobite Steam Train and Harry Potter connection got us signed up. You’re doing a great job. Keep it up. Sarah
April 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I had a fantastic tour and I give the credit to David our tour driver. He’s an outstanding story teller and does his upmost to make our day memorable. This is my second tour with David. Your company was recommended by a friend. I will also be singing praises to my friends on a great tour. Thank you. Vicky
March 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough. It completely exceeded our expectations and we had a really great day. We couldn’t have seen everything we saw in one day without the trip, and our leader made it really interesting. We would definitely recommend your company to others, and hope to come on a trip with you again. I really couldn’t say anything negative about it!! Thanks so much for the wonderful trip! Rachel
March 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The trip with Nick was amazing. He was the best tour guide we have ever met. The harmony between played songs in the bus and the landscape was excellent. Kind regards, Adam
March 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park tour
My friend and I were the only 2 people on our tour, and we had a great day. Cliff was our tour leader, and he was knowledgeable and friendly. He had suggestions about what to see at each of our stops, helped us plan each stop so we had plenty of time to fit in all the sites. I would definitely recommend the trip to others. I might do another tour when the weather warms up a little 🙂 -Erin
March 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I cannot begin to tell you how fantastic the tour was to Isle of Skye. David, our tour leader, was knowledgeable, warm, kind and friendly and brought history of the area alive with his stories. The Highlands and the lochs came alive as we rode through them. I felt so connected to the land and the history. I so enjoyed each well-timed stop where we had plenty of time for meals and exploring. David’s recommendations for things to see and restaurants to try were outstanding. The motorcoach was so comfortable with excellent views. My stay at Sandra Dew’s B&B was delightful and I felt well cared for throughout the duration of the trip. David’s passion for his work really stood out. I could not have asked for a better tour leader/guide. I cannot imagine changing a thing. Again, thank you for one of the best experiences of my life. Sincerely, Kelly
March 2018 – Outlander Inspired Day Tour
I was on the very first day of the new Outlander tour and it was AWESOME! It was my favorite part of my Scotland trip this time. Our driver was very knowledgeable about all things Outlander making the tour come to life… a wonderful experience that I highly recommend to any Outlander fan!!! Kim
February 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
This is the first time that I am giving a feedback for a tour. That means that the tour at highlands and loch Ness was amazing. Our tour guide Nick, was fantastic. He was telling us during the whole trip the history and the facts of every part we drove through. Such an amazing experience. The weather was by our side, so Nick took advantage of that and we made even more stops in order to see more things. Definitely I would recommend this trip to my friends! Best regards, Georgia
February 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I took the Oban tour which was absolutely the BEST choice! David, the guide and driver, was AMAZING! he thought about everything and was very knowledgeable. He even had music to align to his stories about the film that were shot in the location we saw- which was an extra and great add-on. He also had great recommendation about food and what to see, and in general he was terrific guide with great attitude.We were a small group and the weather was amazing so it even allowed us to stop at places and take pictures which was much appreciated. All in all, I would highly recommend the Oban tour and David in specific! Many thanks!! Tamar
February 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
My tour with Discover Scotland was PERFECT! The guide/driver very friendly and good driver! Its comments interesting, and I liked the liberty with different options for visit or for lunch. Thank you and I’ll recommend your company!!! Thank you very much. Colette
February 2018 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness
I was travelling with my young adult daughter and I can speak for us both to say we thoroughly enjoyed it! My daughter has been travelling throughout England, France and Belgium for the past 4 months and she commented that this trip to the Isle of Skye was a highlight!! Our guide Stuart was knowledgeable and informative. His stories and anecdotes brought the history of the area to life. Highly recommend this tour! Donna
January 2018 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had a fantastic time on our tour. Our guide, Dal, was so friendly and had wonderful stories of the history of Scotland. His music playlist for the tour was a nice touch and really added to the experience. Dal’s driving was excellent, especially considering the snowy weather. It was only three of us taking the tour which made it so nice to converse on the van (which by the way was very comfortable). Overall thought it was a great use of time at each stop and wouldn’t change a thing. Thanks! Rachel
January 2018 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
The tour was absolutely WONDERFUL! First off it was a great price for all that we did! That’s always a big deal for me because I’m a student and only spend money on things I find really useful/necessary. Our tour guide was Stuart and he was such a wonderful and funny person! He was so kind and so informative. He took us on a couple of extra stops because we were so early. He was very informative which was so key because when on a tour I like tour guides that say as much information about the country as possible- that way there are no blocks of silence. I took so many notes about Scotland from all that he told us! The sights were beautiful and Scotland is definitely in my top 5 favorite countries (I’ve traveled to over 15). Amanda
January 2018 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had an absolutely fabulous day on Sunday from start till finish. The coach was very comfortable and the driver Cliff was very informative and made our day even more enjoyable … I found your company on Facebook and it’s been a great find. Five stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brilliant .. Jacqueline
December 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
It was great! I really enjoyed it. It was very informative. Loads of historical facts. The driver was very knowledgeable and helpful. An overall lovely experience. Thank you. John
December 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour was great and guide (I believe it was Stuart H) was wonderful, very knowledgeable and pleasant. I would very much recommend this tour to everyone. Thank you for a great experience😉 Joanna
December 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
Despite the weather being such a bummer on the day we had the tour but the scenery and experience never fail to amaze us. I certainly love to take this tour again on a summer time with friends. I am giving this tour a 5 star. Highly Recommended. I would like to thank Cameron our driver/guide, no dull moment during the entire tour. Learned so much from him about Scotland History. He is very accommodating. Looking forward into my next Glasgow visit. All the best, Filomena
December 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We enjoyed our tour immensely. We are a family of 5 and our tour guide, David kept all of us entertained. The local lunch was delicious. We especially loved seeing the Harry Coos. Paige
November 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour was wonderful. I thought the drive was extremely knowledgeable and offered a lot of information on the history of Scotland as well as what is going on now. He had a wonderful sense of humor, answered all my questions well, and added a great deal to the trip. I really felt I developed a great appreciation for the Highlands. It was very beautiful, with sheep grazing in green pastures all along the way. I would highly recommend it. Deborah
November 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Thank you very much. The tour was absolutely wonderful! Our tour guide was excellent, very helpful and friendly. He knew the area so well, told lots of interesting history and played some Scottish music and also gave us plenty of time to explore the little towns en route. The area itself is captivating and to get to see so much of the highlands in one day is amazing. I found this tour through a google search and definitely hope to book another tour with the company next year. Thank you again for a great trip! 10/10 🙂 Kind regards, Éilis 🙂
November 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We really loved the day with Dal – there was a brilliant mix of history and music to break up the day and the recommendation for a steak pie – really hit the spot. Personally, of the two castles, I think we enjoyed Doune Castle the most (although this may be because the family are avid Game of Throne fans). Overall we felt it was a fantastic day and great value for money. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to any of our family and friends who were visiting the area. With best wishes, Sarah
November 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Our tour was just amazing! Our tour guide steward was so nice and showed us around !! He was such a great guide , which made the trip even more enjoyable! We really enjoyed all the places we visited and would recommend the Tour to others! Laura
October 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I went there on the tour with a couple of friends visiting from Italy, wanting to see some Scottish landscapes. I have never been on a tour with Discover Scotland before, so I just did some search over the internet and found the website. We choose this tour mainly because it was different from the others, and it was available on different days even weekdays, with departure and arrival in Glasgow. I also appreciated the possibility to have the pick up outside the hotel were my friends were staying, that helped as we were leaving quite early in the morning. I think I can speak for my friends as well saying that at the end of the day we all were very pleased with this choice, because everything was perfect, the tour guide was funny and nice and told us a lot about the Scottish history of those places. Places visited were all absolutely stunning: lochs, mountains, castles and sceneries in general. I would recommend this tour to everybody, and I am honestly looking forward to come to another one of your tours myself, as I was 100% satisfied with the overall organization, so I believe it will be another great experience! Kind regards, Maria
October 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We really enjoyed our trip to Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands. The places we’ve been to were amazing and the number of stops were perfect for us. Our tour leader Michael was great, he told us a lot about the history of Scotland and stories about the landscape. It was a pleasure to join his tour! Best regards, Michael and Lorena
October 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
Four of us travelled on you tour to Mallaig and we all loved it so much, Cameron, our drive and guide for the day went above anything we expected. His knowledge and quirky comments made us Australians feel at home. I would recommend your company and its tours to anyone embarking on a trip to Glasgow. Thank you again for your professionalism and the tour. Regards, Nicci, Phil, Liza and Christine
October 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I am honestly very satisfied with the overall tour. The guide, Nick, is very knowledgeable, fun, experienced, and charter to the needs of the tour participant. I really do get the best of Scotland and Isle of Skye in those 3 days. I like that our guide made an impromptu stop to places that might interest us, unforgettable trip if I may say. The bus is very nice, I often get motion sickness but this time I didn’t get any. Regards, Anastasia
October 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
it was really lovely!! Stuart was brilliant! and we had an excellent time! I came with my 6 and a half year old and he enjoyed it too! I can fully recommend this trip even for the young ones. it was really the highlight of my trip to Scotland! Yael
September 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
It was great! The tour was really well organized and the guide was really nice and told us so many things during the tour. It was really nice weather and we visited so many beautiful sights. I will definitely recommend your tour and when I come back try another tour. Yours, Jennifer
September 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
We had a wonderful time on this tour. The girls on the tour with me are huge Harry Potter fans so the viaduct and the Jacobite train were the initial reasons for booking – but it turned out to be much more. David was an excellent tour guide and gave us a really good overview of the history in this area along with some great Scottish music. If I hear if anyone heading Glasgow way, I’ll recommend this trip to them. Also, our cameras are overloaded with the sights we saw. All the best, Ronalyn
September 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Our guide was delightful. The countryside and all the stops were perfect. My husband and I were both so delighted to have found you and had the opportunity to do this tour. Ten stars for sure. We would travel with you again for sure. Pat
September 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We had a fantastic time on your tour and as a result have subsequently booked more day trips through your company. It was fun, the driver was excellent, the places were absolutely amazing. The photo opportunities were pointed out and stopped at if practical. Good tips from the driver (I’m sorry I’ve momentarily forgotten his name). I love that they wear kilts & play Scottish music as part of their playlist. Loved it, love Scotland. Thank you, Cathie
September 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We had a great time on our Isle of Skye trip. Our guide was Stuart, and he did a great job of blending stories and music about Scotland with what we were seeing. I also really liked that sometimes he just played music and let us look out the window at what we were seeing (we’ve had trips where the guide talked the entire time, and that can be too much. Stuart was perfect). We’ll definitely recommend your company to our friends and family! Thanks, Jocelyn
September 2017 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Our shore excursion was really awesome. The bus was very comfortable and our driver, Stuart, was truly wonderful. Of course, we were pleased that he brought a beautiful day with him! The country side and the Lochs were so gorgeous. My great grandparents were from Scotland, so this day was especially meaningful to me. I named my daughter Heather and was so pleased to be able to see the heather growing wild on the hillsides. I found your company on Trip Advisor and would highly recommend you to anyone arriving by cruise ship. Stuart was waiting for us at the pier and had us back in ample time. Regards, Fred & Carolyn
September 2017 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We thoroughly enjoyed our day with David as our driver and tour guide! He was very knowledgeable, funny, and kept everyone moving along at the right times. We found your company through TripAdvisor, and would not hesitate to book with you again! Ron
August 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
it was a great trip. And I was surprised how much we could see within 1 day. Andrew, our driver and guide was a very well-informed man who told us so much about history and Scotland in general. He was great, and he did it with a lot of humour and he made us smile. We do not have one thing we could complain of. And we will come back to your tours as soon as we are back in Scotland. Best, Monica & Irina
August 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour was very nice and enjoyable with spectacular landscapes. The tour leader was perfect: he is funny, he has a lot of knowledge about the places we visited including both historical and geographical aspects, he has real narrative talent and he has the gift to place you in the historic moments he is storytelling. I was together with my boyfriend, my sister and my mother and I can sincerely say that the tour leader made us all feel great and with his stories he was able to catch the all our attention and interest despite the rainy weather that called for a nap. I will definitely recommend this tour to all my friends that will visit Scotland. You guys are doing a really amazing job! Keep up! Regards, G.
August 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I wanted to let you know that our tour through the Scottish highlands and Oban was one of the most amazing tours I’ve ever done. First and foremost our guide, Nick, I believe was his name. ( he’s from Whales) was outstanding. He was so informative and patient and kind. His love of history is so apparent as he tells about the Scottish history. You can almost see William Wallace riding across the country side. The stops were beautiful and amazing to behold. And the bus was extremely comfortable.That tour was truly one of the highlights of our Scotland trip. Thank you for a great experience, and please tell Nick he’s awesome. Jo
August 2017 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Our Discover Scotland tour with Cameron was the best excursion we took on our recent cruise! Not only was Cameron personable and knowledgeable, but he did his very best to show us the beauty of your country. And his addition of music by the Red Hot Chili Pipers was great fun. Altogether, a wonderful day. Thanks, Barbara
August 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
In regards to the tour, it was beautifully planned and so much information was given. The tour guides themselves were lovely and full of energy and stories about the Highlands as well as general topics! I feel that we had ample time to explore, and there wasn’t too much time spent on the bus, which is always a task in itself. Any questions I had were answered well, as well as suggestions on what to do, and where to go. I would definitely book again. 5/5 stars! Kayleigh
August 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
I can’t say enough good things about the tour. I’m from Nova Scotia, first time in Scotland and will not be my last. David is a super guide, fantastic driver and extremely informative. I felt like I had hooked up with my ancestors. I will certainly be taking your tour again, to a different part of the country. Have been spreading the word. Once again, kudos to your company! Donna
July 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
We had an absolute blast. There’s so much to say I hope I don’t forget anything. First of all, our Tour Leader, Nick, was an fantastic guide and an incredible person. He was fun and upbeat the whole trip, giving lots of interesting tidbits of information whenever we passed by someplace while in the bus. We loved the songs he chose for the trip as well. What could’ve been some boring bus rides between location were instead one of the funnest and most memorable parts of the whole trip, the hours flew by and his commentary on Scotland (and a final 20 minute Mel Gibson/Braveheart rant!) were fantastic. He truly improved an already incredible tour. The tour itself was loads of fun as well. All the little stops had something interesting about them and we were quite lucky as it was super sunny and we took loads of great pictures! We specially loved the small town of Pitlochry. Everyone was super nice and it was refreshing to take a tour that takes us to places that aren’t that well-known. We had a lovely time there. Of course, there’s the main attractions too. The scenery of Glencoe were absolutely stunning. It looked as if we were inside a Scottish postcard. We always had something to look at from the bus. Finally, we went on the hour long Loch Ness ride and had a great time there as well. We were able to relax, have a couple of drinks and enjoy the views. We didnt’t see Nessy though. Bummer. Maybe next time! We have absolutely nothing negative to say about our trip. When we come back to Scotland we will definitely take the other tours you offer (the 3 day ones look fantastic!). We will definitely recommend it to our friends when they visit Scotland as well! I think that’s it, I’m pretty sure I’m forgetting loads of things but for a general idea of what we thought of the tour. The most special thing about it though is the fact that it didn’t feel like other tours: this was more intimate, funnier, and we felt super comfortable the whole time, and all thanks to Nick. I hope you have a great day! Best wishes, Lorenzo
July 2017 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
This was our best tour on the 12 night cruise circuit. Dal was excellent and went above and beyond what would be normally expected. The day started out rainy and overcast but that didn’t matter, the scenery and pit stops were all great and the timing at each was sufficient. We also enjoyed the size of the vehicle as it was easier to manoeuvre around the narrow streets and less passengers made it more manageable at the stops. I would definitely recommend your company and hope to get back to Scotland in the future to venture again with Discover Scotland. Ellen
July 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Me and my dad had a very nice experience in Scotland. Cliff was an amazing guide, shared lots of funny stories. I feel I learned a lot about Scotland during the tour, things I could not have discovered on my own. The tour itself was well balanced, had enough time to enjoy the main objectives, not just driving between them. I really liked our tour as it had a good mix of castles and sightseeing. I would definitely recommend it to my friends. Regards, Elena
July 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
we really enjoyed our ride on the bus with you. Although it was a sightseeing tour for tourists it never felt like a standard program. Our tour guide was very attentive, entertaining and caring. We felt very well taken care of wether it was on the bus tour which was gorgeous and informative or the ride in the Jacobite train. It always felt familial. The small group size contributed certainly to that. The booking process as well as the personal advice via email will remain positively in our memory. This bus ride was one of the most memorable parts of our holiday and we will highly recommend you. Kind Regards, Alexandra & Elena
July 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
Our family of four had a wonderful and memorable tour of beautiful Skye and the highlands. The Discover Scotland Tour was well organized from start to finish. They arranged for the Jacobite train ride and the fun RIB boat ride at Skye. Discover Scotland Tour even arranged for a pickup at Glasgow and a drop off at Edinburgh. We were fortunate to have Dave as our tour guide and driver-extraordinaire for the three day trip to the Highlands. Dave was full of stories – explaining the cultural and colorful history of Scotland. Our trip to Skye thru the Discover Scotland Tours was the highlight of our first ever trip thru England and Scotland” Regards – Uma
July 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
This tour that I went on was absolutely fantastic. Our tour leader/ driver Stuart was amazing! He did an excellent job of explaining what we were seeing/ going to be seeing. He also had some very interesting facts about Scotland. He was very easy to talk to to ask questions and get some more information. Overall I had an excellent trip and would recommend your company to anyone that I knew who was planning on doing a tour of the highlands. Regards, Charlotte
June 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
We very much enjoyed our time to the Trossachs and Stirling Castle. It was one of the highlights of our three week trip. It was a good balance of towns, nature and castles. Our guide was excellent and informative. We really wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thanks so much! Dawn
June 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
We had an amazing experience with Cliff. Our trip was a wonderful way to see Scotland for the first time, and to get a taste of so many sights within 3 days. I credit Cliff with deftly manoeuvring the tight and busy roads whilst providing historical, anecdotal and whimsical tidbits to keep us all informed and entertained. We saw all the sights with a decent amount of time. It was a very enjoyable trip, and we are chuffed to bits that we chose your tour company. I will recommend Discover Scotland (and Cliff) to others. All the best, Albert
June 2017 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Our tour was wonderful! I can’t say enough about our driver/tour guide. I believe his name was David. He was so knowledgeable and personable. It was honestly one of my favorite tours on our 12-day cruise! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. The value for the price was also great. If we are ever fortunate enough to get back to Scotland, we will most definitely use your company again. Lisa
June 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour and driver were amazing. Michael did a great job explaining and entertaining us with both history and fun facts. I am glad I found your tour. I will recommend it. Sandra
June 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
It was a wonderful experience. The best part was the Highlands. Nick was our tour guide and he did a wonderful job. He stopped at some very scenic places and was always conscientious about where we were and made sure nobody got lost. The fish and chips in Malliag were the best I ever had. The Jacobite Train was good but the tour the Highlands was still the best. Thank you for the wonderful service and I would highly recommend this tour. Karen
June 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We just came from our trip to Oban, lochs, castles and Glencoe. I think my mother and I have had the best day out so far. So a big thankyou for working so hard to make every trip so personal and wonderful. I would especially like to thank our guide and driver for the day, Cameron. He was absolutely fabulous. Totally admired his gentle, positive and down to earth attitude. Please extend our greetings to him. Thankyou very much again! Regards, Payal
May 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Cameron was a great tour guide, we had no expectations just wanted to see The Highlands. We did so, wonderfully. Cameron shared his knowledge graciously and generously. If history classes were armed with teachers of Cameron’s wit and understanding of history there would be no failures. I know the drive must have been tiresome but he was as pleasant and attentive at day’s end as in the beginning. Only sorry we didn’t have time to tour Skye, next time perhaps! Cheers, the American cousins, Kate and Ralph
May 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
I can’t begin to tell you how much I loved the tour. Our tour guide David was so knowledgeable, he made the history come alive. There was so much to see in such a short time. I only wish it were possible to have spent more time in some of the locations. I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. Warm regards Patti
May 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness 3 day tour
The trip was wonderful and those three days are some unforgettable moments in our life. We enjoyed the trip thoroughly. Our Tour leader was Cameron. He was so kind and helping. I can certainly say that he added an extra charm to our travel. Everything was perfect. Though we could not reach Elgol because of weather but instead the places we visited thanks to Cameron were marvelous. I would love to recommend our friends for the trip and would like to come back again in future. With thanks and regards, Saikat
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
We had a great trip with your tour! weather was exceptionally good and this in addition to your happy and helpful crew made a good day even better. we appreciated the photo stop locations and personal assistance on getting our train seats! The trip was the highlight of our Scotland Tour and we recommend it thoroughly to anyone wishing to visit the Highlands. regards Roy and Sally.
May 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
There were sooo many great things about the day, here are just a few – Pick up was perfect – so close to our hotel and even though we’d managed to be a couple of mins late (sorry!), we received a nice call just to make sure that we were still going to make it, and if we needed any help finding the pick up point. – Our Tour Leader Dal and Eilish (sorry if I’ve spelt either name wrong) were really lovely and welcoming and made us feel relaxed (we were the only two on the bus). Dal is a very funny guy with oodles of Scottish charm, and Eilish was super friendly – The journey itself was smooth and gave us plenty of opportunity to take in the sights, and the knowledgeable and personality-packed commentary along the way added so much to the experience! – Both of them were very easy going and genuine, making sure we had the absolute best time possible. We also liked that they left us free to chat between ourselves too – that was pretty important to us. – Dal brought along homemade tablet for us to try – it was a-ma-zing, and such a nice touch! – Dal is a true storyteller – super engaging and funny, and a great driver too. – The bus itself was very comfortable, luxurious and super safe. – The highlight had to be feeding the ‘hairy coos’ – what a treat! Dal got us some feed from the shop which was a really nice touch, and we were able to feed all three of the cows tasty fresh vegetables – it was great to see them out in a big field in the fresh air. When I was researching the trip there were plenty of companies offering day trips etc. and I am so happy I chose yours – it was perfect, and we can’t wait to join you on another one. Both Dal and Eilish are true assets to the Discover Scotland experience. Best wishes, Sara (and Emma) x
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
Fantastic trip. Eilish has brilliant knowledge of Scottish history. Both of them very friendly and accommodating. Eilish lovely and made sure everything went smoothly, allowing plenty of photo opportunities. Great banter and music also. I will recommend Discover Scotland tours to all. Cheers Eilish and Gary. Laura x
May 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Our tour guide was Nick. He gave us excellent information, played some fitting and enjoyable music to enhance the tour and places we visited. Whilst it was a long tour, we found it an excellent way to see highlights of the southern Highlands, a famous loch and be informed about some of the history of Scotland’s well known monuments. I would highly recommend this tour and your company. Pick up from our hotel was a real bonus too Thank you, Ruth and David.
May 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I loved your trip very much and also thank you. I can say that everything was very good on our trip, we felt very good. It was a unique and unforgettable experience I would repeat if I had the opportunity. The driver was very fair, took us to our hotel at the scheduled time. He took care of us and told us interesting things about Scotland’s history and about the places we visited. Best regards, Roxana Gabriela Zaharescu
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
We had the best day ever on our tour, Gary was just to delightful and very knowledgable, we couldn’t ask for a better tour guide. The bus was so clean and comfortable, the route and places were perfect. I will be totally recommending your company to anyone who wishes to visit Scotland and especially Glasgow we hope to return one day and do another tour with you. Thank you once again. Rosemarie and Stephen S, Perth, Western Australia
May 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I along with my two other colleagues had a wonderful experience. This is the best one day tour I ever had. Our guide was so informative and we didn’t expected such a level of detailed commentary through out. Very comfortable journey and you really made us discover the beauty of Scotland in a single day. Kudos to you guys.
May 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands & Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
I really enjoyed the tour and think it was good value for the money. All of the stops were very interesting and beautiful. Our guide/ driver was excellent, very informative and helpful and could be clearly heard. it is obvious he loves his job and his country. Thank you Cameron. I would surely recommend your tour company to my friends. Walter.
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Mallaig last Thursday. The weather was perfect and the coach was comfortable. The kilted driver was very knowledgeable and kept us well informed as we passed points of interest. We stopped frequently to stretch our legs and take pictures. Fish and chips in Mallaig was first class food. I can recommend your company to anyone travelling to your Glasgow area. Cheers, Don.
May 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
The tour was well planned and covered all the areas of Scotland that my wife and I so wanted to see and experience. Granted that Scotland cannot be seen or experienced in a single day. But it was an excellent appetiser, figuratively speaking. And we finished the tour wanting to come back another time and perhaps do our own road trip around this beautiful country. 5 Stars. Cameron, our tour guide, was both brilliant and hugely fun! He was conscientious in his driving, clear in his instructions, engaging in his commentary, genuine in his friendliness and made safety his top priority. 5 stars. Cameron touched on the significant points of the culture, history and background of Scotland. And he played some of the classic and contemporary Scottish songs at specific points throughout the journey. This made for a holistic tour experience. 5 stars. Cost wise, £43 per person is reasonable considering the distances we covered complete with an excellent tour guide. 5 stars. In summary 5 stars! Perhaps the best compliment came from our close relatives who have resided in Glasgow for about 30 years. When we shared some of the points we had learned, their response was, “I think we need to join this tour ourselves!” Have a great day! Koshy
May 2017
Our 3 days tour to Skye was out of this world. The scenery itself was amazing, and our tour leader Cameron was such a joy to be with. Very informative yet very entertaining. He knows a lot about Scottish history, the Skye’s flora and fauna, restaurant recommendations, and have an amazing playlist throughout the trip. Although this is a small company, the tour was very well planned, the coach was comfortable, and the size of the group was perfect. Would definitely recommend Discovery Scotland to my friends and family. Regards. Dwinarsi
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & the Jacobite Steam Train
This was without doubt the best tour we have done. I booked this tour as a birthday gift for a friend and it certainly did not disappoint. Our driver and guide Gary was courteous, knowledgeable and funny. I will be recommending your company to family and friends. Many thanks for making this a memorable tour for us both. Kind Regards, Angela
May 2017
We loved our tour of Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond. Cameron impressed us all with his skills as a guide. I think we smiled and laughed the entire day. It was a highlight of our trip to Scotland for sure. I picked your company according to reviews on TripAdvisor and we were happy we did. We appreciated the pickup at our hotel and the fact that you called our hotel the night before to advise of a later pickup time. Obviously Cameron enjoys his job and his enthusiasm for Scotland was obvious. We would have no hesitation recommending your tours to anyone. Thanks so much, Janice
May 2017 – Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness
Thank you for your hospitality! We have had wonderful trip and may be the best driver-guide we have ever had!! Wish you all the best! Yours faithfully, Roman
May 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
I really enjoyed the tour! We have seen more than planned and it was all gorgeous. Our guides were fun and knew lots of stories. I will not hesitate to book again with you when I’ll come back. Regards, Faiza
May 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Nick went above and beyond to try to fit each and everyone’s desires into the trip! I personally asked about the William Wallace monument (not supposed to be part of tour) and he offered to take anyone over to it hat was interested for 30-40 minutes and then bring us back to sterling. Really I can not think of anything better he could have done. My wife and I really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend anyone wanting to avoid the big bus experience and have a more personalized experience with Discover Scotland Tours. I really enjoyed the historical stories as it is something I really look forward in a tour. In fact, I would say there can’t be too much history for me. Thanks, Mike
May 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Thanks you very much for your trip! Well done! We liked it immensely! The guides (we where lucky to have 2 of them) were friendly, helpful and managed to combine information, songs, and (short) periods of silence, which was very pleasant, both informative and relaxing. ( a couple of days before we had gone on another trip, not with your company, where the guide was very quickly speaking during the entire trip, which proved fairly tiring and at the end of the trip we were happy to leave the bus…). Our small group consisted of four people and one of us does not speak English at all. The normal tempo of the guide’s speech enabled basic information to be translated to her. The itinerary was well selected and nicely combined buildings (castles etc.), landscapes, & seafood lunch. Mussels were very tasty! The stop for feeding the roes was a nice surprise. The bus was comfortable. It being small was a sure benefit! If we come again we will surely join your tours and we will recommend your company if any acquaintances of ours will decide to visit Scotland! We like your beautiful land very much! Best regards, Natalia Ryabova
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
The trip was wonderful. I will recommend it to my family and friends. Thank you so much. Best wishes, Chien
May 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
My family and I absolutely loved the tour! Our guides were both friendly, knowledgeable and funny. I liked that we were a small group and it felt like it was easier to get to know each other. I thoroughly enjoyed the drive to each location. As well while we were in Luss I liked that Michael took us on a little walk around tour. All in all the only thing I didn’t like was the winding bumpy ride up Duke’s Pass but we got to stop to see Highland cows and so that made up for it. Thank you so very much for a GREAT Scottish countryside experience! Sincerely, Amanda
May 2017 – Oban, Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Our tour guide, Cameron, was knowledgeable and very helpful, particularly in pointing out what not to miss and great lunch options. We would recommend this tour highly to anyone who wants a great overview of the highlands, castles and lochs. Regards, Margaret
May 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
I bought this tour as a birthday treat for my daughter and my husband joined us on the tour. I must say we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The tour guide was very informative and quite funny, which made it all the more enjoyable. I would definitely book with Discover Scotland again. Regards, Carole
April 2017 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
We took the Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train tour on april 20th… the tour was great, mainly because of our guide… lots of information, anecdotes… we learned a lot !… really good experience… thank you… the two french canadians….

I was on the Oban tour yesterday and I had to write to tell you that Cameron is a terrific guide! So much interesting information, very personable and very helpful in every way! I feel very fortunate to have had that bus tour with him. Thank you. Ronny
February 2017
Last Saturday (4th of February) I had the pleasure to be on the tour with Gloria and driver David. I’ve enjoyed every second of it. We were just the two of us but that didn’t bother David at all. We talked and listened to all he knows and that’s a lot! I’ll definitely book a tour when I come back to Glasgow. Thanks David for the great day. Jan
January 2017 – Stirling Castle & Loch Lomond National Park
Just to say how much we enjoyed our time on our day round Loch Lomond, Stirling castle etc last Saturday, Frazer was our guide very interesting, informative and we had a laugh although weather was not great he made the day for us thank you. Neil Anne & Joe
January 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
Just wanted to say how fantastic David our driver/tour guide was on the Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands trip on Sunday 08/01/2017. I am a blogger and have written a piece about my trip and how great it was! David was the perfect guide and a credit to Discover Scotland Tours. Kind Regards, Charlie
January 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
I went on a day tour last Saturday to Loch Ness with my brother. Cliff was our tour guide and he done an excellent job. He is wonderful at explaining the history of key locations and also a fantastic driver. I very much appreciate him and your company for given myself and my brother a wonderful day out. Thank you!
January 2017 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands
A quick email regarding my 1 day trip to the Scottish Highlands, Glencoe and Loch Ness today – excellent. Cliff was an excellent guide, and a great guy. The tour was excellent and exceeded expectations. A positive review has been provided on Trip Advisor. Word of Mouth recommendations will also be made. Please feel free to pass along my delight of the tour to Cliff. Regards, Robert
November 2016
I just wanted to drop you a small note to tell you how much I enjoyed the Glencoe, Loch Ness tour this past Friday. Fraser was an excellent guide. He really made the tour enjoyable. It was the perfect amount of information and I really appreciated all the stops he made for photos, as well as, the music compilation that accompanied his tour. He also gave me some great advice for the next day on how to get to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum via the subway. Please pass along my many thanks. I thought the kilt was a nice touch too. Best, Paula
October 2016
I have been meaning to write an email to whomever would read about my absolute joy of having Cliff as our guide for the 3-day Isle of Skye tour. But first, thanks and a quick shoutout to Gail, Andy, and Laura for being patient and kind and helping me prior to arrival! I had so many questions and hope I wasn’t a nuisance. I visited Scotland for 5 days but I do have to say the 3 days on tour were the most enjoyable. You guys put together an amazing itinerary for us. Cliff was superb; he was extremely knowledgeable, funny, and gave us all a great time. There were 26 people on our tour and he was able to rally us together at stops. He was also great at rallying us together in the Isle of Skye – he had 7 pickup/dropoff points for housing! Cliff genuinely cared about our safety as well as what we wanted to do, and provided alternatives when certain places or activities were at full capacity or rained out. He was very informative, gave us snippets of history and information along the long (and tiring, I’m sure) drive up through the highlands, into the Isle of Skye, and back on the return journey. I mentioned at one point that it would be great if we saw a hairy coo and after a few tries, Cliff took us to a spot with a very friendly and adorable highland cow – Success! I also asked for a list of the music Cliff played during the trip, and he provided a great selection to me. My new friends from the tour also had praises for Cliff, hopefully they have reached out as well! Many thanks for a wonderful trip. Best, Jasmine
October 2016
Just to say Thank you very much for the very beautiful and wonderful 3 days tour, I love Scotland! Thank you Garry – the tour guide who drove us all there to all the amazing attractions. Thank you very much with best regards. Ann
October 2016
Hello, I would just like to tell you that we had the best day out on your tour. Our tour guide Fraser was the best one we have had in the last five weeks of travelling. Fraser was very informative about everywhere we went as well as Scotland & history. He also went out of his way to look after us and explain where we had to go. Regards, Karen
October 2016
What a great day yesterday to Loch Ness with David. We did so much with a few impromptu stops in summer type weather but never were rushed. David knew all our names and was an excellent host with stories, historical facts and jokes! Anticipate that tomorrow’s trip to Mallaig etc will be just as good. Sarah Murray
October 2016 – Glenfinnan, Mallaig & Jacobite Steam Train
Yesterday we were on your Tour from Glasgow over Fort William to Mallaig. We want to thank you for the nice trip. We enjoyed all the time. Please be so kind and give a special thank you to our bus driver Garry. He was one of the best Tour Guiders we’ve ever had. His smart art and his top Playlist made our day. Best Regards, Stephan
September 2016
We took the 3-day tour of the Isle of Skye, the Highlands and Loch Ness in early September. Our driver and tour guide, Cliff, was amazing and really made the entire experience one of the most memorable we have ever had. He was an excellent driver and extremely pleasant and eager to show us the most interesting and spectacular sights and destinations throughout the tour. We enjoyed his easy-going and knowledgeable ways – with so many stories and facts about the areas presented with warmth and humour. He is a gem and should be recognized for his professionalism and for being such an excellent ambassador. Your company provided us with a well-designed itinerary, comfortable tour bus, and excellent accommodations and food experiences. The instant feedback to our questions when we were booking as well as your timely follow up to our requests was greatly appreciated. We will be back for another visit to Scotland and you can count on us booking with you once again. You provide a 5-star experience. Well done! Stan and Laurie Campbell, New Brunswick, Canada
March 2016
March of 2016. My wife and I toured Stirling Castle with a tour guide named Gary who picked us up from the Holiday Inn in Glasgow. Coming from Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean we were a bit unnerved by the cold. However, the tour was wonderful- but moreover Gary was exceptional. He was a safe driver, informative and made the trip an unforgettable experience. We have toured many places in the last year but I must say that his service was exceptional. I will certainly be booking with your company in the future and hope that Gary will be our tour guide! Darren Dookeeram
March 2016
Just wanted to drop you a quick note about the excellent experience we had on our tour of Oban and Glencoe on March 19, 2016. The van was very comfortable, and our guide, Helen, was knowledgable, engaging, and very funny. She engaged with all of the people on the tour, and really made us feel like family as we explored the sites. This was the trip of a lifetime for us, and your excellent tour really showed us a side of Scotland that we would otherwise not have seen. Steve Nims
October 2015
I just wanted to email you in regards to our bus driver and trip. I was hoping you could pass along a word of thanks to our bus driver and guide, Brian. Everything from his authentic Scotish attire to his passion and knowledge of relevant history made the trip an extremely enjoyable experience for myself and my two friends. Not only was Brian attentive and engaging he was also curteous enough to drop us off close to our hotel at the end of the trip, when my younger brother was experiencing some stomatch issues. I understand that yours is a smaller company competing with other larger tour groups, and I can say with confidence that the personalized pick up locations and smaller group sizes made every aspect of our trip more convenient. I won’t go into the stops or route of the trip as I think the beauty of the Highlands really speak for themselves. You can be sure that we will be leaving a more than favorable review on trip advisor (or any other website, should you wish to inform me of one that is preferable). Again, please pass on our thanks to Brian, he’s certainly one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had, and his commentary and personality really added to the quality of the tour. Best regards, Mitchell
August 2015
Just to say we had a fantastic day trip from Glasgow up the Highlands and back by Inverness, etc. Garry our tour guide was full of local information and had brilliant knowledge of local history. Well done, we will return to do another trip with Discover Scotland Tours, soon. Aisling & John Lynch

My name is Tyler and I took one of your tours to the Isle of Skye and Highlands on the 17th of July. I would like to inform you guys that it was the best tour I have ever taken!!!!!!! Our tour guide took us to the most beautiful places and I am so thankful. I also want to add, that our tour guide Helen, was the best person to guide us through the Highlands and Isle of Skye. She is funny, nice, and really knows her stuff. Oh and please thank her for my new found love of Gaelic music. You guys are doing a wonderful job and I wanted to let you guys know it!!! Thanks so much, Tyler Trotter
July 2015
Today myself and my family went on the Glencoe/Highland/Loch Ness tour, led by tour guide Brian. We would just like to say we thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend this tour and your company to friends and family. Brian impressed us all with his knowledge of the history of Scotland, in addition to his pleasent nature, sense of humour, and professional customer service skills. We were also grateful when he agreed to drop us back at our hotel due to our daughter becoming sick towards the end of the tour, a gesture we appreciated a lot. In summary we cannot speak highly enough of the customer service skills displayed by Brian, and the way he represented your company. Could you please express our thanks to Brian (or show him this email), and rest assured we will definitely book our next tour in Scotland with your company. Kind regards, Paul, Sanna, Niko, Ninni Phillips.

Just a quick note to say that we thoroughly enjoyed the Loch Lomond tour which we had booked for Sunday May 17th, 2015 departing from Glasgow. The tour was absolutely wonderful. We would like to acknowledge our tour guide Cliff Halliday who provided a very insightful tour and a very welcoming persona. Cliff ensured that any major landmarks along the way were brought to our attention, and took extra measures to ensure that our needs and enjoyment were met. Totally recommend Discover Scotland Tours to anyone interested in a day tour and/or mini tour. Well done Cliff. Best Regards, Nick & Pat Cino
May 2015 – Loch Lomond, the Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
Just wanted you to know that we really enjoyed our tour with Grant. He was excellent and enjoyed all the information he imparted. Loved that he also added the Scottish music which added to the atmosphere and feeling of really being in Scotland. A nice touch! We never felt rushed but of course wished we had more time to explore. Once again thanks for the wonderful experience. Irma & Ernest Rigby

November 2014
I just wanted to write and say how much my friend and I enjoyed our Loch Lomond/Trossachs/Stirling tour last week. Ian is an excellent guide, with a good sense of humor, plus expert at keeping us on schedule. We especially appreciated his adding a stop at Dumbarton Rock because the departure from Glasgow was quicker than expected. We also wanted to say how impressed we were that Discover Scotland sent a guide out to our hotel, to tell us in person that our originally scheduled trip to Oban and Glencoe had to be cancelled due to landslides on the road.Thank you for an excellent day out! Whenever I return to Glasgow, I will definitely book with Discover Scotland Tours again. Helen Bronk
October 2014
Hello, we just wanted to drop a line saying that we had a fantastic time on our trip to the Highlands with Discover Scotland! We especially want to commend our driver Ian, who was witty, factual and very entertaining (as well as being an excellent driver) as he kept us enthralled with tales of Scottish history. Please let him know he did an excellent job. First rate. Please feel free to use this in your testimonials. We will be using your service again when we return to Scotland. Thank you, D&J from Canada P.S. We would just like to mention that this was our second positive experience with your company. Our first driver was Charlie, who was also awesome!
August 2014 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
Whilst at the Commonwealth Games last week, our hotel booked a day trip Loch Ness, Glencoe & Highlands Tour for 3 of us. Ian was our driver and guide. I wanted it noted how good he was on his information and help. He was interesting and informed and good fun. Thank you to your company for a very good trip and thanks to Ian for his good natured banter. Regards, Linda Mowle
August 2014 – Loch Ness, Glencoe & The Highlands
Just a quick note to tell you how much we enjoyed our tour today as well as guide Charlie who was an absolute pleasure! We will be posting very positive comments on both yelp and tripadvisor. Cheers! Jeff Bershtein
July 2014 – 3 day Isle of Skye Tour
After a few weeks away from New Zealand I finally returned home yesterday. I would like to pass on how much we enjoyed the 3 day Isle of Skye tour, it was fabulous, very memorable and a highlight of our trip. The scenery and remoteness is not unlike New Zealand, what is different is the history, the Highland cows and sheep with tails (in NZ farmers dock sheep tails when they are lambs).Our tour driver David had a great sense of humour and looked after us well, a small group of 7 on the coach did not hinder us having an enjoyable tour. Please give our regards to David. Some feedback that you may be interested in.A point to note is that the Skye Museum of Highland Life we went to see is closed on Sundays so unfortunately we were unable to visit. Would have loved to visit a whisky distillery as we did pass some along the way. Your great communication and reassurance certainly made us decide what tour company to go with. All the best with your tour company, I will certainly recommend your company to anyone I know that is visiting Scotland. Kind regards, Lisa Lee
May 2014 – 3 day Isle of Skye Tour
I just got back from my trip and I wanted to thank you wholeheartedly for providing such informative and entertaining tours. This year I had Ian, Grant and Helen as guides, all of whom are fantastic. They all, Grant and Helen in particular, went above and beyond in providing top notch information and a personalized experience. Helen was mentioning a potential plan to do a 5 day trip to the Isle of Lewis etc. I would be the first one signing up if/when you do that tour. I very much want to continue my exploration of the Scottish islands and I think it would be a great compliment to your other tours. She is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic that I’m sure you’d have an instant hit! Thanks again for answering all of my pre-tour inquiries so promptly. Discover Scotland is by far the best tour company I have ever used…and I travel a lot. Looking forward to signing up for more tours in the near future, Melany

April 2014 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
I wanted to write a quick review of the amazing tour I had, as not doing so would be an injustice. On the 26th, I did the Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe, and Highlands tour. It was a marvellous experience. Our tour guide was named Grant, he was fantastic, and I personally believe he couldn’t have done the tour any better. He knew all his history of the Scotts, and told us the most magical stories. All throughout the tour, he had the perfect music playlist, which only added to the stunning views. This was the most informative, and beautiful tour I’ve had the pleasure of being on. I thoroughly enjoyed myself throughout the day, and I will be back, hopefully sooner than later, as Scotland is too beautiful a place to only go on one tour, and call it finished. I intend to recommend Discover Scotland Tours to anyone and everyone. Thank you again for the experience, see you soon. Keirsten Walters

yesterday I enjoyed one of your one day tours and I must say it was amazing. I’ve always wanted to see Scotland and discoverscotland provided me an excellent opportunity. Say hello to Grant and Charlie, the best guide and driver I’ve ever seen. They were fun to listen and their stories were always interesting. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to say thanks, since I was in hurry so please do so on my behalf. I will definitely use your service again if I have a chance to visit Scotland again (hopefully I will, bacause the views are just stunning). Best Regards, Emil Cieslar

On Saturday 7th March 2014 my wife and I flew up to Glasgow from Southampton to see Michael Buble live at the Hydro Center. On Saturday the 8th via a booking made by our hotel( Blythswood Square Hotel) we booked a tour to Loch Lomond with your company, my reason for getting in touch is to give a hugh vote of thanks to Charlie. Charlie was absolutely fantastic and he really made it a super tour, although there was only 4 of us on the trip he did not cut back on anything. I had a real rapport with him and we sent the whole day telling jokes and enjoying each others company. I can only say that having travelled the world on holiday and taking many cruises this tour will be one that we will always remember due to Charlie high level of knowledge, professionalism and expertise. Sorry about the delay in writing to you but I did mislay your brochure and have only just found it. On a slightly different matter how is Ian doing, he was spending his last day with Charlie and was going to fly solo 3 days later with his first tour, which I believe was to Loch Ness. Once again Ian was another great guy and help to make this a very special day. Do give him our warmest regards and wish him good luck in his new career. I trust you will be able to pass on our vote of thanks, praise and congratulations to Charlie for making our 1st trip to Glasgow so memorable. Wishing you a very successful and profitable season, From Alan and Chris Simpson. Southampton.

I just want to say the tour today was phenomenal, as was the scenery!!! A big thanks to the help in booking the tour, and accommodating my airport pickup and drop off. I, for some reason, never got the young lady tour guide’s name, but she was phenomenal and a true asset to the tour. Many thanks, Mike Thompson

September 2013 – Highland Lochs, Glens & Castles Shore Excursion
We had a little difficulty finding the Discover Scotland Tours Van and were the last four onboard. However, once we were on our way with Helen as our guide we knew immediately it was going to be a great tour. Helen was extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and eagerly offered information and answers to our questions. She never made us feel rushed. Despite the fact that it rained the entire day, I must say it was a day we will fondly remember. I will be posting a review on TripAdvisor as well. Please say hello and a big thank you to Helen who helped make our short time in Scotland very enjoyable! Faye
September 2013 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
My family of four, and our four friends visiting from the US, had a wonderful time on your Saturday tour of Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands. We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our time with Bobby, and to inform you that I just posted this review on TripAdvisor: With friends visiting from the States, we figured we’d just rent a minivan and wander around to see the Highlands…but instead, we decided to go on the Discover Scotland tour of Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands. What a great decision! Of course, the scenery was gorgeous and it was luxurious to sit back and enjoy the view instead of stressing about the road. We covered a lot of ground — more than we would have on our own…and we got so much more perspective than we would have trying to drive and get a few paragraphs from a guidebook. But what really made the trip was Bobby, our driver. Funny, intelligent and a great story-teller, Bobby shared not only on his extensive knowledge of the history of the area, but also his perspective on contemporary issues. 100% recommended. I hope the review does you some good with future bookings! We hope to see you again in the future. In the meantime, thanks for the great tour, and all the best for continued success. Steve
September 2013 – Loch Ness, haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
My daughter and I went on the Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands tour out of Glasgow on the 8th of September of this year. Your driver picked us up at the Holiday Inn Express hotel located by the Glasgow Airport. The bus tour was our last trip on our two-week vacation in Scotland and it was really the highlight of our whole vacation. The little gal, whose name was Helen, was one of the best bus tour guides I have ever had the privilege of meeting. Being raised and born in Troon, and having gone on many bus tours over the years when I was young, and each time I come back home for a vacation, Helen stands out as one of the best. She was very informative, told many great stories of the history of Scotland and also was very knowledgable about all of the areas that we were driving through. We fortunately had pretty good weather, which is always a plus in Scotland, but it didn’t keep us from doing any of the planned stops or having a wonderful time. Please pass on to Helen our best wishes and thanks for a great time. She was absolutely the best. She should receive accolades from your company for the great work she does for you. Thank you, June Rice and daughter.

September 2013 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
My husband and I would like to thank you for a wonder tour. We recently (August) went on the Highlands tour which visited Inverary and Oban passing through Glencoe and stopping at Drovers Inn. We were picked up at Greenock (we were on the Infinity), and our tour guide was Charlie who was truly OUTSTANDING. As a result of this tour, my husband and I have fallen in love with Scotland – the country, the people, and the music. Many thanks to all who made this possible. Carol and Francis Jett
August 2013 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
We made a reservation for a one day trip to the Highlands, on August 20th, and it was amazing. We would like to also thank our driver/tour guide, Mike, for the wonderful experience and for his knowledge of the country. He was very funny and told us a lots of stories that made the trip more colourful (since the weather was not that nice: too many clouds in the sky…). He is from Paisley and, for sure, on my next visit to Scotland I will make sure I will stop by his town. He also gave us a quite nice tip about the Pot Still (very close by to the hotel we were staying – Marks Hotel) and it was brilliant!!!! The owners of the bar were really nice and the whiskies we tried were excellent. They even gave us some tips where to go in Edinburgh. For sure, I will put a very nice note on Trip Advisor as well as recommend you and your team to my friends. Thanks again
August 2013
Just to let you know that the trip was very nice and that the bus driver Bobby was excellent.
All in all a very nice day and highly recommendable. Best regards, Jan & Ana
August 2013 – Private Tour to St Andrews
Michael, Our trip to St Andrews was great. Bobby was an excellent driver and guide. We’d do it again…………next time with golf clubs!! Al
August 2013 – Loch Lomond, The Trossachs & Stirling Castle
I have just got back from the Loch Lomond trip. I had such a lovely day! I would like to congratulate Discover Scotland Tours on so many levels. Firstly the very helpful and kind responses when I made initial enquiries, which gave me the confidence to book. Secondly the suggestion that I could be picked up outside my hotel. Wonderfully helpful in a strange city. Thirdly the excellent standard of the tour bus. Fourthly the quality of the driver guide: friendly, very good driver, extremely knowledgeable and informative. Fifthly the planning, timing and execution of the tour. Each element was ideal and timings immaculate. All told a wonderful last day of my mini break. Thanks to all. Best wishes, Rosemary Hopper
August 2013 Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
My daughter Rebecca and her friend from Memphis ( America ) booked on one of your tours yesterday. They chose the Loch Ness / Glencoe / Highlands tour. I felt I had to drop you a mail to say what a fantastic day out they had. They came home last night about 8’ish raving about the day. My daughter said the driver…Charlie I believe…was very knowledgeable and witty and made the tour what it was with his “banter” and stories relating to where they were on the tour. My daughter was the only Scot on the bus and a couple of times he jokingly told her not to shout out the answer when they came to an area …ie what famous person came from Dunblane. My daughter’s friend has been left with a lasting memory of our heritage and countryside and for this, once again, I have to thank you and your staff…especially Charlie…for providing a wonderful day out for them. All the best…. George
July 2013 – Loch Lomond, The Trossachs & Stirling Castle Shore Excursion
On 28 July, 2013, my wife and I had the pleasure of taking your Loch Lomond – Stirling Castle tour from Greenock. Our driver/tour guide was Helen. What a delightful, knowledgeable young lady! She is certainly an asset to your company and a great ambassador for your country. She passed along her in-depth knowledge of the area and of the country while being very entertaining and charming with her outgoing personality. She was very aware of our time constraints in order to return to our ship in plenty of time before departure. She kept the tour on schedule and even added some quick stops for photos. Her driving skills were very professional and gave everyone, I’m sure, complete confidence in her ability to safely navigate narrow roads, even in rainy weather. Please accept our thanks for providing a great tour and a great tour guide! Sincerely, Harold & Frances Hamilton, Wadmalaw Island, SC USA
July 2013 – Oban Western Highlands, Lochs, Castles & Glencoe
Just wanted to drop a note to let you know how much our family enjoyed the tour. Our bus driver David was excellent! He even gave us directions to Greenock and Elderslie. He really made the ride enjoyable, his commentary was both interesting and humorous. Thank you Dave for an awesome day! The Americans/but actually Canadians
May 2013 – Loch Ness Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful tour my son and I had on our tour to Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands. Our driver/guide, David, was a wealth of information about the historical aspects of each stop. I could have listened to him for hours. Karen McCulloch, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
February 2013 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe & The Highlands
Just a quick email to say how much I enjoyed the tour I went on on Tuesday this week. Myself and my friend were the only two passengers. We really appreciated that you didn’t cancel the trip in light of there being no other passengers. Bobby, our driver and guide was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable and made for a fascinating trip. We stopped on numerous occasions at beautiful viewing points. I have and will continue to recommend your company to my family and friends. Many thanks, Nadine Baldwick
November 2009 – Loch Ness, Glencoe and the Highlands Tour
I just wanted to give a very very big thank you to Michael for the tremendous tour he gave up to Loch Ness. He was incredibly knowledgeable and completely made the trip. Always ready to take a photo and very considerate of everybody’s needs and wants. One of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. The bus was also very nice and although it was dark on the drive from Inverness to Glasgow, Michael played some great Scottish music. Thank Michael and Discover Scotland for making my time in the UK even more enjoyable! Aly Marren

July 2009 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe and the Highlands
I just wanted to let you know that I had a great time on your one day tour of Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe and the Highlands. The beauty and grandeur of Scotland was apparent regardless of the changing weather. The trip was further enriched by the enjoyable stories and insight provided by your experienced driver/tour guide. Based on this experience, I plan to bring my whole family back next year for a vacation in Scotland. Best regards, Charles visiting from the US
May 2009 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe and the Highlands
Thanks to Discover Scotland for a great tour to loch ness. Unfortunately I have forgotten the drivers name but he was absolutely brilliant. We could not have asked for a more friendly and knowledgable guide. An enthusiastic story teller who knew so much about the history of Scotland. Overall 10 out of 10. We have recommended this trip to our friends who are visiting Scotland in August. Thanks again for a wonderful time. Pat McCarthy
August 2008 – Loch Ness, Haunting Glencoe and the Highlands

July 2008 – Private Tour
Everything was fabulous! I just want to say “THANK YOU SO MUCH” for your help. Without your expertise, this trip would probably have been a disaster. The last minute changing of operators was truly a challenge to me too. But your professionalism, attention to detail, and patience is the highlight. If you ever need any recommendation, please do not hesitate to give me as your reference. As I mentioned to you, I will also write to the Tourism Board of Scotland, Wales and England to let them know of your impeccable service.
In the current climate of social distancing and bubbles, now more than ever may be the time to consider a private tour of Scotland for your family and friends.
We're proud of our reputation. But we won't rest on our laurels. If you've enjoyed a tour with us please share your experience
