I booked this day trip for my partner’s birthday and it turned out to be better than I expected. Alister our guide and driver was quite knowledgeable about Scotland and the highlands and would tell us all about it on the way. Making the journey interesting and engaging at the same time. We had an incredible meal at Rosemount restaurant in Mailig. Train was relatively on time and my partner got to blew his candle on top of the heel and we celebrated this beautiful day. Would definitely recommend

The hop-on, hop-off tour in Glasgow was fantastic! It provided a flexible and convenient way to see the city’s top attractions. The buses were frequent, the audio guide was informative, and we loved being able to explore at our own pace. Highlights included the Glasgow Cathedral, Kelvingrove Art Gallery, and the Riverside Museum. This tour is perfect if you want a stress-free way to experience Glasgow in a short time. Highly recommended!

Very happy drivers and told you everything you needed to know in a nutshell :) the guide we had on one of the buses was also great. Very knowledgable and cracked a couple of jokes which made us laugh.

This gives you the opportunity to scope out your options and then go and enjoy them.

Heather was a great guide, alot of great knowledge and very nice
