What people love about Isle Of Skye Tours
- Isle of Skye, Loch Ness & Inverness
Calum was an amazing tour guide and bus driver! He made the tour even better than it already was!
- Isle Of Skye And The Highlands
Fantastic tour guide doing his last tour, took us on a short but epic journey around the Isle of Skye complete with stories and details of historical events of the same. The tour itself was filled with beautiful scenery and iconic landmarks. Highly recomended and best wishes to our guide Tony on his future endevours.
- 4-Day Isle of Skye & West Highlands Small-Group Tour from Edinburgh
Spent an excellent four days with Peter out tour guide. He was knowledgeable, personable and experienced. He went out of his way to provide photo stops and information about what the group wanted to see and do. His knowledge of history was brilliant. He wove our tour together with appropriate historical stories, myths and legends. As an older, less agile member of the group, he provided practical assistance whenever necessary. An excellent tour guide!
