3 Tage Isle of Skye und Jacobite Steam Train Tour ab Inverness

This tour was the highlight of our time in Scotland. Our guide, Harrison was a self-proclaimed nerd who knew so much about the history, the legends, the flora, and the fauna. Not to mention his music selections were spot on. We were able to see and do so much while on this tour. We especially enjoyed day 2 on Skye. The Fairy Pools are extraordinary! We were fortunate to have wonderful weather, too! The accomodations in Portree were nice and conveniently located just a short walk from the center of town. We enjoyed spending our evenings there. Stop considering it and book this trip...it is well worth the cost.

Our guides Martin and Tim were fantastic! Very knowledgeable, kind, and entertaining. We saw so much more than we would have touring on our own - definitely recommend.

Great experience. Tim our guide was very knowledgeable, fun to be with and clear with instructions.

We had the most unforgettable trip with Harrison, who was the BEST tour guide ever! I recommend booking because this tour exceeded my expectations. We ventured around with a small group of cool people in a stylish bus, and my only regret was not staying longer! If you love nature and history, you’ve got to get to the Highlands and Isle of Skye!

The tour was excellent from start to finish. We had a wonderful experience, and everything was very well organized. A special thank you to Torquil, our guide, for being so friendly, knowledgeable, and making the tour truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Good 3 day tour...guide was very informative.

Sticky buns were amazing, Ronnie was great, Donnie was alright 😄 No but seriously. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. The 3-day small group tour checked all the boxes, and then some: ✔️ Perfectly planned itinerary, hit all the best spots ✔️ Relaxed pace and enough time for stops ✔️ Wonderful guiding and driving by Donnie ✔️ Comfortable and clean vehicle ✔️ Good accommodations included in a very picturesque town ✔️ Great food and beverage recommendations ✔️ Lovely people in our tour group, we bonded immediately and had so much fun We've been on many tours over the years and can confidently say this is one of the best.

We did a 3 day excursion with Donnie, there were three couples including my wife and I. Day 1: Our trip started out with a stop off at the lookout over Urquhart Castle (quick stop because we needed to make our train ride, yes that train) Donnie went above and beyond to get us tickets for the Jacobite Steam Train aka Harry Potter Hogwarts Train, the views of the Scottish countryside and Glennfinnan Viaduct were awesome. We met Donnie at the last stop in the amazing coastal town of Mallaig where we had lunch before boarding the ferry for the Isle of Skye, the next stop at Sligachan was one of amazing views and really good Whisky, then crossed the Old Bridge the right way according (thanks Donnie) Skye is such a beautiful island, the views we had on our way to our lodgings (The Skye Inn) in Portree made me want to never leave. Throughout the trip Donnie told us stories and history of the places we stopped at and passed by, once in Portree wife and I went for a walk to find some places for her to photograph (the colour houses specifically) but we didn't find the right spot that day. Day 2: Up for breakfast which was served at our lodging, really good breakfast, then off to the Fairy Pools which were so cool to see (the whole area was beautiful). Then my highlight was seeing the Fairy Flag of Dunvegan Castle, a couple more stops to see some amazing views and then back to base (Portree) and finding dinner and also getting the colour houses picture which Donnie showed us where to get it from was great. Day 3: Last day and we are heading back to Inverness with sticky buns and Ronnie 😁. Last stop is Culloden Battlefield and the Clava Cairns which were both amazing, I know I've probably missed a few things but this was an amazing experience and adventure. We got to see so many things on our list that would have taken a lot longer to see individually and it would have cost us more to do it and we got stories and history in the process. So an amazing trip with a great group and an awesome tour guide.

This was an incredible 3 days! Our tour operator, Donnie, was amazing. Full of information and great stories, he kept us laughing and entertained the whole time. And he could always point us to the best food, drinks, sticky buns (amazing), place to take a photo, etc. He also went out of his way to get us last minute seats on the steam train. Ronnie was a great co-pilot. The trip itself was packed with everything we wanted to see and more, but it never felt rushed. This was a really well thought out tour. Our group was 3 couples, which we felt was the perfect size. We've never done more than just a day tour, and it was great to have all the driving and our accomodations taken care of. Absolutely worth it.

Chose this tour because I didn’t want to deal with driving on the Isle of Skye, and not only did I not have to deal with the stress of single track roads, I got to enjoy dramatic vistas to a well-curated playlist of Scottish (and Irish and English) bands. Tim was an entertaining guide with just the right amount of bad jokes expected of any respectable tour guide. His playlist and storytelling more than made up for any cheese. Enjoyed all the locations visited and would recommend.
