Tour Experience

Pros:

  • "This tour was definitely the highlight of my stay in May and the best decision I made."
  • "Hands down one of the best experiences we had while traveling."
  • "Can’t speak highly enough about this company, the four day tour to Isle of Skye, and our guide (Billy)."
  • "Took the 1 day Glencoe and Loch Ness tour. Absolutely the best tour."
  • "I took the 'Loch Ness, Glencoe & the Highlands' day tour from Edinburgh and was very happy with the overall experience."
  • "First of all, we want to thank Discover Scotland for providing a top notch experience for us."
  • "We did the Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Loch Shiel day tour today and our tour guide (and photographer and comedian and historian) Robert was amazing."
  • "This was an absolutely beautiful tour. Our tour guide Robert was so fantastic."

Cons:

  • "Unfortunately, this trip is not a Glencoe one as she stopped only at a random waterfall(could have been avoided) and not at Glencoe as she said there’s no parking which is kinda not acceptable."
  • "Frances is the best. She's genuinely nice and she makes the bus ride really pleasant and fun. However, the tour itself is not worth it."

Guides

Pros:

  • "Our guide was amazing, not only was he funny, but also interesting! I really appreciated hearing about all the history, mysterious stories."
  • "Marco, our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and funny too!"
  • "The overall tour was great. Frances was amazing and kept talking about Scottish history."
  • "Our driver was Marco who was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, personable, and an excellent driver."
  • "We took a tour with Alan a few days ago and had the best time."
  • "Marco, the guide, gave us many interesting (historical, at times funny and other informative) bits of information throughout the day."
  • "Besides having the perfect guide with Stuart being the ultimate expert guide having lived on Skye."
  • "Our tour guide (and photographer and comedian and historian) Robert was amazing."

Cons:

Group Dynamics

Pros:

  • "Travelling solo, I didn't know what to expect, but I was so pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to feel comfortable within the group."
  • "I really appreciated the smaller tour size that Discover Scotland had."
  • "We had a small group (7 people) but everyone bonded and was so lovely to be with."
  • "We selected a tour with a 16 person allowance and it worked out great."
  • "I also enjoyed that it was only a small group of people."
  • "We were also lucky to have a very small group tour with lovely people."
  • "The group size (site says max 16, we had 9) with couples and families helped the experience be enjoyable."
  • "I found out about Discover Scotland through an online search. As I was travelling with family (parents and sister), I was researching different tours for the highlands that would provide a nice, extensive and well planned family friendly experience."

Cons:

  • "None mentioned."
