A fantastic tour made all the more special by the BEST tour guide. Duncan, aka "Big Dunc", made Scotland and the Isle of Skye come to life. Even when the weather was not ideal, the flexibilty of a small group setting meant there was never a wasted moment. Great sites, great stories, and great people. I was traveling alone and the light hearted atmosphere allowed for making new friends very easily.

Lizzie was our tour guide and made the trip extra special! She is an absolute history buff and told us entertaining stories about the clans and areas that we were passing through and visiting, as well as having a playlist of songs related to the people, places and historic events she told us about. She taught us some Scottish Gaelic, and had curated stops that aligned with our interests (like folklore and hiking). The small group size was awesome and we all felt like friends by the end of our 3 day tour. Would do it again!

Tour guide/driver “Big Duncan” was superb! An excellent driver, narrator, and humorist, he was the perfect tour leader.

This tour was outstanding and exceeded my expectations. The scenery was unreal, and our guide, Kylie, was excellent. She created a sense of community and got to know each passenger, and I appreciated she chose excellent stops (eg, Glenshiel Chocolates) and always gave us detailed info about bathrooms and snacks. As a solo traveler, I was pleased to find that there were several other solo travelers, too, and a wide range of ages. I was delighted by my room at the Pier Hotel in Portree, booked for me by Rabbies. Amazing view of the water and great breakfast included.

We had a fantastic 3-day tour to the Highlands and Isle of Skye. Kylie was a fabulous guide and driver - so knowledgeable, insightful, fun and funny. She had the perfect playlist for the whole trip, with songs perfectly timed to match certain attractions as we drove by them.
Rabbie’s was extremely professional and easy to work with; their operations at Edinburgh bus station are super organized. We would definitely consider taking another Rabbie’s trip next time we are in the U.K.!

From pick up to drop off I felt very safe and well taken care of by the Rabbie’s guide, Robert. He was a man of very few words but knowledgeable nonetheless. This is an action packed 3 days so be sure and put on your roller skates. I had a list of places I wanted to visit, things I wanted to see and everything was checked off my bucketlist. To name a few, we hiked to the Fairy Pools, saw Kilt Rock, Old Man Storr, Quiraing Needle, visited Eilean Donan Castle, saw thousands of Scottish black face sheep and lambs, hairy coos (not as many as I would’ve liked), saw the dinosaur footprints in the rocks on Staffin Beach, visited Talisker Distillery and so much more. We had 14 people on my tour and everyone stayed in Portree at various B&B’s and hotels. I stayed at the Royal Hotel (nothing “Royal” about it but the room was clean and the breakfast was amazing.) Be sure and dress for the ever changing weather as we had sunshine, rain, hail and sleet all in one day. Overall, this tour was incredible and I’m so happy I did it. Do not hesitate, book this trip today! You’re going to love it!

Amazing tour with our guide Trevor. He shared a lot of great Scottish legends and histories. Very fun and engaging, and giving us enough time to do our own thing. Saw a lot of the top sights in the Scottish highlands and the Isle of Skye. Inspired me to plan another trip to the Scottish highlands in the future. Make sure you do the booking only on their website.

My aunt and I had the best time on our tour, even if there was some rain involved! Our guide, Ross, was EXCELLENT- very knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions. He knew where to take us to follow the good weather and light for photos. I would 100% love to go on another tour with him!
