Customer Reviews
We really enjoyed our Highlands tour with Discovery Scotland Tours. We especially appreciated that the company is family-run, with small buses and a limited number of participants, which makes the experience much more personal and relaxed. Gary, our guide, is the perfect Glaswegian Scot: enthusiastic, engaging and genuinely funny. He shared a huge amount of interesting facts and curiosities throughout the journey, making the long drive feel shorter and very enjoyable. Despite the weather not being on our side, the tour was absolutely worth it and we would definitely recommend it. If I may offer a small suggestion for the future: not all participants are native English speakers, and the Scottish accent can sometimes be challenging to understand. Providing a simple printed map or short written summary with the main points and curiosities of the tour could really help everyone fully enjoy and understand the experience. Thank you, Gary, for a great day in the Highlands!
Jamie was my guide on this trip. The trip was wonderful, and Jamie is a very professional and friendly guide. I recommend this trip to everyone!
We did three Get Your Guides tour, and Fiann was definitely the best guide. He's funny, loves stories, and is a huge music fan. On the long drive home, we listened to a great playlist of modern Scottish songs.
