We liked the commentary and personal comments by Max, the tour guide. Having only seen the Highlands on TV, it was so impressive to be there in person. But we didn't see the Loch Ness monster!

The landscapes and the way Peter (the driver) managed to drive and tell us a lot of information about Scotland and the places we were visiting. He did a amazing job, but I think a little help to him it would be good. He was doing all the work alone. It was an amazing experience and worth it.

Wendy was a fantastic guide. Great tales of history told to us that kept me informed and entertained the entire trip. She helped me when I was a little motion sick, and I began to feel better. Our driver was safe and courteous. 100 percent, will recommend!
