Reviews: Edinburgh: Loch Ness, Glencoe & The Highlands

Went on Wednesday 6th August with our coach driver Neil to go to Loch Ness through the Highlands. Scheduled many stops on a long journey, felt relaxed and he gave scottish knowledge and personal experience every so often throughout the trip. Was comical enough for a Scot. We had really nice weather (2 days earlier the wind was closing down high streets!). Plenty of chances to take photos. Although there were many to get on the boat at Fort Augustus, we were able to get a decent view of the Loch. Saw the monster, was about to take the photo, but she dipped back down into the water! Typical! Would highly recommend Neil for a trip into the Highlands, safe driver - even bought me the 2nd best drink in Scotland - an Irn Bru!

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!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaged with the group. The places we visited were pretty and calming. It was a great out of city tour.

The trip was fantastic. We saw a lot and had plenty of time at each stop. The itinerary was adapted at short notice to the winter conditions, which we really appreciated. Our guide was very helpful and spoke clearly.

Jason was a really great guide and driver. Interesting commentary on the ride, with a personal touch and open to questions. We listened to a great selection of scottish music. He was also really accommodating for one member of the group who could not walk too far. On the way back we stopped at the three bridges, since we had time and the weather was nice. I especially enjoyed that. The stop at the Kelpies was wonderful and I had the perfect amount of time. At the Loch I did the boat ride, which was fine but the part of the tour that I enjoyed the least. The stop at the Stirling Castle was perfectly timed to do the last guided tour through the castle. Very interesting but I would have spend a little more time there if I had been on my own. We were lucky and saw one cow up close. I would definitely do this tour again.
