  • Scottish Islands Grand Tour - 14 days reviewer 1
    · August 5th, 2025
    Overall the 14 Scottish Highlands Grand Tour was good, but it is really 3 separate tours combined into one which results in duplication and seeing sights more than once. There should be more coordination between the local operators to ensure the literary is followed and sights are not repeated. Guests should also know that some days are quite long and there are limited dinner options available in some towns. As guests are staying at multiple hotels and guesthouses, drop offs take time. Most stores and shops are closed by the time the bus gets into town for the evening.
