A car-free 3-day Highlands and Isle of Skye tour from Edinburgh, with Inverness overnight, Glenfinnan Viaduct, and optional Loch Ness cruise.
“Paul S. was a great and hilarious guide. We saw a lot in 3 days. I feel like a couple stops may have been unnecessary but I understand the driving hours have to be logged properly. I also think some more periods of unnarrated driving could’ve been worked in as it was just a lot to listen to commentary the whole time. BUT this tour really showed us a lot of places I wouldn’t have known about and Paul was very knowledgeable. My favorites were the Cairns, Glencoe and Inverness!”
A 3-day small-group drive from Edinburgh to Skye and the Scottish Highlands, with Portree lodging, Loch Ness lore, and big views.
“I do not have enough words to describe how amazing this 3-day tour was. Our driver/tour guide Kieran was amazing, the fellow passengers were a great group of people, the B&B that the tour group booked was just the best, and the scenery and animals we got to see, and experience were breath taking (even in the middle of winter). I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone going to Scotland, and especially the Rabbies tour company that gave us 110% amazing service every day. I can't wait to go back to scotland one day so I can do this tour or another with Rabbies company agaim!”

“We had a wonderful time and saw so much. A good mix of travellers. Our guide/driver, Chris, was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable and provided information /history giving us context for our stops. The b&b we stayed in was very comfortable, about a ten minute walk into the center of Inverness. Our hostess offered a good range of breakfast selections. Bring waterproof gear as the weather changes quickly so you will need it. The Culloden Battlefield stop for lunch on day 3 was a bit longer than needed, I would have preferred (weather permitting) to shorten that by a half hour and add it to the last stop in Pitlochry which is…”

“It was all about Iain, our tour guide. He was awesome. The coach was comfortable. The stops were frequent. The scenery was fantastic and the stories and music just made it interesting. My only wish would be for wifi on the coaches so to be able to look up things for more information. Lunch breaks were sometimes a bit short when the villages were crowded. Our bed and breakfast was superb as well. Comfortable rooms, private entrance, delicious breakfasts at convenient times. This was Balloch in Portree. the whole process from booking the tour to return to our hotel was seamless and professional.”

“The tour was amazing. Our guide Mark P (the Australian guy) was kind, considerate, knowledgeable and funny! He took us to the popular sites and some secret spots that are less touristy. He told us so many folk stories and history about Scotland. The whole trip was fun and smooth. We were also lucky to have sunny weather and saw rainbows on both days. Highly recommend!
