Relaxing day trip through the Highlands region with a great tour guide. Very informative and made stops at a variety of locations for great pictures. Oban was the highlight of the trip though, for sure!

Sadly the coach left without us despite our explanation that we were stuck in Glashow traffic and arrived just minutes after it left. Very disappointing and no refund was offered. Never will I recommend your company and will advise all travel agents in Australia of our experience.

Simba the tour guide is absolutely amazing. His knowledge and confidence on the trip was awesome. His dad like jokes are definitely the selling point. Simba will make sure you get those insta worthy videos and pictures. The views around the towns and villages. The tour bus was small with a capped number
