“Our tour guide Jaime was wonderful! I went on the Highlands tour with my friend and my seven-year-old son. My friend gets motion sickness, but she didn’t feel unwell at all because the driver was excellent. My son was also comfortable most of the time. The drive was really smooth, and we had plenty of stops along the way, so no one got tired. On top of that, the driver told us beautiful stories and shared a lot of useful information. Overall, we didn’t even realize how quickly these five days passed!”

Review of Rabbie's five-day Wales tour from London, with Snowdonia, castles, coastlines, small-group travel, lodging, costs, and practical tips.

“Our tour guide Jack is the best. Not only he has a great sense of humor he is knowledgeable in history and has good choice of music. He is also a gentleman. When asked who were his worst passengers, he had none. Haha…Just be aware that one lodging only has hot water between 6pm and midnight and available again 6am. Our fellow passengers are easy going and fun too.”

Explore Orkney, Loch Ness, Skara Brae, and the Highlands on a five-day small-group tour from Edinburgh with ferries and local guides.

“The 5-day Orkney trip was incredible! Kenny was our guide and he made it even better, I think. He brought us to so many little out-of-the-way places to see beautiful views between the big visits like Skara Brae and the stone circles.
