We loved our trip with Discover Scotland Tours. Sandy, our tour guide, was so friendly and informative. He made our day an absolute joy. We were slightly nervous to take our two kiddos, age nine and twelve, on this twelve-hour bus tour, but they did fantastic. He made sure to incorporate things that they found enjoyable. We would one hundred percent recommend doing this tour for anyone.
We loved the tour. Kyle was an amazing tour guide. Very funny, entertaining and informative. Everything was well planned and executed. He had very interesting anecdotes about history, geology etc. Bus was comfortable with a small group with comfortable stops. Totally worth it
Thank you for your 5 star review! We are delighted that you enjoyed Kyle's sense of humour as well as his knowledge on history and geology. We are also glad to hear you found the bus comfortable. We hope to see you again in the future. - Discover Scotland Tours
Kyle was attentive and knowledgeable. We were able to see quite a bit of the country and learn about Scottish history and culture. He was witty and made the entire tour more enjoyable.
Thank you for your 5 star review! We are glad you enjoyed everything you got to see and learn throughout the tour! We'll pass on your kind words to Kyle and we hope to welcome you back in the future! - Discover Scotland Tours

Ron was our driver/guide, and he was fantastic. The whole day was wonderful - really epic! Saw so much of Scotland; a real Scottish immersion. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your 5 star review and recommendation! It is great to hear that you felt you got the true Scottish experience and also enjoyed Ron's guiding. We hope to welcome you back in the future! - Discover Scotland Tours
The main reason we took this trip is to see Loch Ness. When we got to that stop, our guide told where to eat at lunch, but did not tell that this where we could walk to Loch Ness. So, even though we had almost 2 hours there, we ended up eating lunch and walking around to kill time not knowing we were at Loch Ness. On our drive back to Edinburgh at the end of the day, our van almost stalled. We did notice problem with the van since we left Edinburgh in the morning. The tour company should take proper care of vehicle maintenance, especially when using it for a long all-day trip.
We are very sorry to hear that you weren't aware that you were at Loch Ness when you visited Fort Augustus. This isn't something we've encountered before. Fort Augustus is our Loch Ness stop where passengers can opt to take a cruise on the loch or they can just walk down to the loch side for photographs. Your Tour Leader would have provided commentary regarding the loch etc on approach to Fort Augustus and through the town. Regarding your mini coach, our vehicles follow a very strict maintenance and inspection schedule but unfortunately things can still happen unexpectedly. In this instance the mechanical issue was identified while on tour and this has now been rectified.
This was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Ron, was a fountain of knowledge. He was engaging and very hospitable. The tour itself was a wonderful opportunity to sample a flavour of The Highlands on what happened to be a beautiful day. Plenty of photo opportunities. We packed in a lot of sightseeing and visits. All in all a wonderful day out and an experience which we would repeat. A little more time in Fort Augustus would have been preferable to allow those who wanted to go on the Loch Ness boat ride plenty of time for lunch beforehand.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed your day in the Highlands and that Ron's knowledge and hospitality helped make the experience so memorable. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the time in Fort Augustus and will take it into consideration. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! - Discover Scotland Tour
The guide is very knowledgeable. He knows almost everything about the Highlands, no matter it’s a historical story or a specific species in the area. He had almost never stopped his introduction to everything that just passed by our coach during his driving. He is not only done a great job, but he’s Passionate in his work.
Thank you for your 5 star review! We are delighted you enjoyed your guides knowledge, commentary and passion on your tour. Hopefully, we can see you on another one of our tours in the future. - Discover Scotland Tours
Wow! What a day trip! The sights along the way were so beautiful. Kyle was extraordinary. I’ve never had a tour guide talk mostly the whole time and give so much information. It was insanely impressive and so appreciated!
