    I recently joined the tour through the Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Skye with Haggis Adventures. While the trip had some memorable moments, there were also several aspects that didn’t meet expectations. Positives: -Our tour guide was fantastic -> enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and made the journey engaging throughout. -The distillery visit was a definite highlight. It was well-organized and offered a great insight into the whisky-making process. -The hostel accommodation was clean, comfortable, and exceeded expectations. -The overall organization of the trip was smooth, with good time management and clear communication. Negatives: -The age range of participants was not as advertised. The tour was marketed for travelers aged 18–45, but most participants were well over 60. This significantly impacted the group dynamic and energy. -The itinerary included too many museum stops for my taste. I would have preferred more outdoor activities or historical landmarks. For example, the Old Man of Storr was only viewed from a distance during a brief photo stop—no hike or closer visit was included. -A major disappointment was Eilean Donan Castle. Despite being a famous and iconic site, we didn’t go inside or even get close—just a 5-minute photo stop from afar. In conclusion, while the tour had its strengths—especially the guide, distillery visit, and accommodation—it didn’t fully deliver on the adventure and demographic it promised. With a few adjustments to the itinerary and better alignment with the advertised age group, this could be a much more enjoyable experience.

    ToRva our guide was fantastic! He made the trip entertaining and informative - warning ‼️ if you choose this company get the HOTEL package it includes free hot/cold buffet breakfast at each location NOT the hostel option - I switched mid trip to hotels as the hostel accommodations were the absolute cheapest options and got worse as the trip went -had no towels for a shower, creaky/ noisy beds no plugins at the beds, no reading lights, not nice at all - and last one had shared unisex bathroom all all toilets were constantly clogged plus “very sketchy men” I felt bad for fellow women who stayed at Inverness hostel - as they told me -you made the right choice.- Remember the tiny towns had nothing (not even a store) - open at 8-8:30 am so couldn’t even buy coffee or food till 2 stops away. It was hard being there so early spring so a lot of places were closed but definitely our guide made sure we had a good time and took us to places off the tour in the areas that we wanted to see. Torva had great stories and he definitely made the trip entertaining.

    The tour I took was called Lochs, Castles and The Kelpies, and I took it on November 23, 2023. In short, I loved it! The history of the places and fun facts kept coming as we drove to and from each destination. Our guides went out of their way to show us an amazing day! Besides viewing the Western Highlands of Scotland, my favourite was The Kelpies. The history of the sculptures, and the majesty and beauty of the Kelpies against the beautiful landscape, was something I will always remember.

    The destinations and the guide were excellent! Dusty is an excellent guide and did an amazing job of keeping us informed and on time. The only area I would say needs to be changed is the size of the bus seats. When driving around for 5 days the seats are small and not as comfortable as other tours.

    This was a well organized overview of the Scottish Highlands, capturing the highlights and offering a nice variety of activities. Our guide played a pivotal role in our enjoyment of the experience. Dusty deftly managed a few of our group that were a bit challenging in their demeanour. He is a pleasant man who kept us safe, informed and entertained. He gave bites of historical informstion

    A great introduction to Scotland and its culture and traditions. We regularly stopped at lovely villages, saw some stunning sites and drove through the most beautiful landscapes. Everyday there were some possibilities to do some walks, and as we arrived at the hotel by 5pm in the evening, we had lots of time off to explore the villages and dive into local food and entertainment. We were a group of 29 of all ages, and a good mixture of couples, families and solo travellers. I booked the hostel accommodation which was fine because we were the same people from the group staying in one room. Our guide Paul was perfect, very kind and knowledgeable. He entertained us during the bus rides with interesting and funny stories, background information and music. He was mindful of our needs and wishes, and a great driver. I can highly recommend this tour!

      In the Tour Radar form it states 'private dorm room'. Does this mean my friend and I will have our own room with 2 beds?

    • Haggis AdventuresOperatorWritten September 2025

      You have booked the tour with Haggis Adventures, this brand offers dorm accommodation only. This is not a private room, and some hostels this might be mixed dorms. I would advise looking for Highland Explorer Tours, here you can book more private accommodation.
