Reviews: Loch Ness, Scottish Highlands, Glencoe and Pitlochry Tour
Guest User2026-02-27
The tour was operated by Hairycow and was at the end of January. The organization was excellent. After I purchased the tour, trip.com contacted me to reschedule it because the tour with a stop at the distillery wasn't available that day. I was offered a tour on the day I selected but with a lake cruise, or other days from the list that included the distillery. I chose the boat ride and was not disappointed. The bus was comfortable, with restroom and snack stops along the way. The views were stunning; I personally didn't have enough stops for nature photography. But the views are so beautiful that I wanted to stop every 100 meters. Late January was a good time for the boat ride; the boat has two decks, open on top and large windows on the bottom, and is well heated. There's also a bar with alcohol (I recommend the lower deck and look for the windows with the Nessie sticker for photos). And even though the program didn't say there would be hairy cows, the company named after them certainly showed them to us. Thank you!★

Reviews: Isle of Skye + Eilean Donan Castle + Loch Ness 1-day tour [round-trip from Inverness + English-speaking driver-guide]
Guest User2024-06-22
The experience is great, the overall is superb, the service is very good, the price is high, this is my second time on the Sky Island or I am beautiful, the UK is definitely the first-class scenery, the fish and chips in the small town of Porter are very fresh. The most grateful thing about this trip is the driver, a person who drives the car for a whole day and is responsible for explaining it, and the content is also very detailed.★

Overall it's OK! However, the whole English is difficult to speak Chinese tourists. The itinerary is too fast, especially for people who are motion sickness! The scenery is good, Loch Ness is very beautiful!
