Loch Ness Glencoe and The Highlands was the tour we went on, and Fin was our tour guide. He was absolutely amazing!! He had very interesting stories and an interactive way of telling it. He let us take the scenery in at times and told us history as it pertained to where we were. The company offered small tours unlike other competitors, which was so nice!! I was so grateful I booked with Discover Scotland! Fin remembered the names of my kids and called them out saying “You wanted to see snow, there it is!” Such a nice touch! He was a mix of historian, tour guide, RJ/DJ mixing up some Scottish songs from his play list. An awesome experience and thank you for the experience!!

My sister and I absolutely loved our 3-day tour of the Isle of Skye, Loch Ness and the Scottish Highlands. We really appreciated being part of a small group, and the variety and number of sites we visited each day were perfect. The landscape was truly stunning and something we’ll never forget. We were blessed with amazing weather which made the views even more breathtaking! Our guide, Jamie, was fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great stories. I even discovered some brilliant new Scottish music from his bus playlist. Thanks, Jamie! All in all, it was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone heading to the Highlands or Isle of Skye.

After researching a number of tour companies while browsing good old Google, I ended up booking a 4-day tour to the Isle of Skye, the Highlands & Loch Ness with Discover Scotland Tours and was so glad I did. Communication was excellent right from the start and the tour itself was absolutely fantastic. The group of people I travelled with was lovely and we got to see so many beautiful parts of the highlands thanks to our awesome tour guide Stuart. He was professional, knowledgeable, and deeply passionate about his work. This tour was the highlight of my trip to Scotland and I would highly recommend Discover Scotland to anyone considering a unique and well-planned adventure!

Loch Ness Glencoe and The Highlands was the first 1 day tour we went on (out of 3), and Ron was our tour guide. He was absolutely amazing!! With each tour we took, each guide for sure each had their strengths and each their own style. We each had our favorites and Ron was mine! He had very interesting stories and an interactive way of telling it. He let us take the scenery in at times and told us history as it pertained to where we were. The company offered small tours unlike other competitors, which was so nice!! I was so grateful I booked with Discover Scotland! It could have been scary booking all 3 of my trips with them and they weren't any good. There were two things I did right when I booked all of our activities for Scotland, this was the first thing I nailed!! They are worth every dime we spent! Their tour guides made it memorable, and we are grateful for making a once in a lifetime dream so special! Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle & the Kelpies was the 2nd one day tour I booked and we had Cameron for a tour guide. He is pretty new with the company, but man! He loves history of Scotland so he had so much information that we just ate up. Because of him, we found out that my mother in laws family had a castle. We went to Scotland to do a pilgrimage of her family, celebrating her 75th. Cameron made it extra special so thank you to him!!! He was my MILs favorite tour guide, with good reason. I absolutely love this company! They are the absolute best!! You will not regret booking with them!!!

My Dad and I did the Isle of Skye, Highlands and Loch Ness three day tour with Colin and it was unbelievable. We saw so much in our three days and we got very lucky with perfect weather. The B&B they booked for us was first-class and Colin did a fantastic job as our guide. He gave us the history of Scotland, great restaurant recommendations and made our experience top notch. I would definitely use Discover Scotland again and I recommend it to anyone who wants to see more of Scotland.
