Cullan was the best tour guide ever! He made everyone feel welcomed and was highly entertaining! He clearly enjoys what he does and was a real treat!
From pick up to drop off has been a fun experience. Tabbie is very cheerful and happy to be providing the tour. The stops were well timed and provided enough to see the sights. Informative guide.
Great weather. Tourguide was very friendly and gave us lots of infomation and lovely stories. Great stops but more time would be better.
My tour guide Tabbie was amazing! So animated and very knowledgeable!
Had lots of fun with our guide Tabby. She is wonderful with fairy stories in and around Isle of Skye. The place was beautiful and had breath taking views. Must do tour from inverness.
A beautiful day along the most iconic attraction between Inverness and the Isle of Skye. Highly recommend (especially in the company of Tammy, our pink guide).
Our tour with Tabbie was great, she’s funny and her stories about scottish culture were great and very interesting. Even if it was the first day for her doing this tour she had good time management and gave us amazing vibes! I’d love to do another tour with her!🩷🌈 🥃
