5.00This was a fantastic 5 day trip from Edinburgh with memorable and unique stops, scenic drives and a great introduction to the Highlands of Scotland . The bus was large and comfortable and the stops were interesting ranging from nature views, a whiskey distillery tour to the historic battle of Culloden.Safe driving and punctuality were emphasized. Our Tourguide/ driver/ historian/ storyteller/ DJ Ry was a phenomenal person, his enthusiasm and knowledge infused the trip with a magnetic energy bringing people together and keeping everyone engaged. Apart from narrating historical stories, Scottish myths and geological details, he entertained us with a massive playlist of Scottish music and gave us recommendations for food and other tips at every stop. He also bought a bunch of strangers together and helped people connect to each other. We were all sorry to see the end of this trip. I highly recommend this tour and particularly Ry !
Unforgettable and amazing trip to Scotland

5.00I did the 5 day Isle of Skye, Loch Ness & Inverness trip with Ry as my guide. I couldn’t have had a better experience. Ry went above and beyond to make the entire trip fantastic. Every stop was well thought out and interesting, the driving was really enjoyable as well because of Ry’s fantastic playlist and insightful commentary into the sights we were seeing. It was just the right amount of talking and letting the music play. I learnt so much and was so well looked after. I couldn’t recommend this trip more for anyone, whether you are travelling solo or in a group.
Amazing time in Scotland

5.00Please don’t hesitate to book this tour. It’s a phenomenal experience. We were blessed with Ry as our guide. He’s hands down one of the most beautiful souls we have ever met. From the start we knew we were in great hands and rightfully put our trust into Ry to deliver us a grand time and boy did he ever. This was a bucket list trip for us and we are so glad we chose to go with this tour. One day I’ll bring my kids back and make sure to book a tour with Ry so they can experience Scotland through his eyes. The special and thoughtful touches Ry brought to our tour made it the best vacation yet. We feel like we have some extended family now and are so sad to leave. Until next time, Ry, may God keep you and bless you. This was our first tour group and we were blessed with the best.
