Overview

Journey to the north and into the mountainous highland region of Scotland. Explore some of Scotland’s best scenery and delve deep in the history. Learn about the Scottish clans, folklore and legend that abounds in the hills. See world-famous sights and stop at dramatic locations along the route. Travel across empty landscape of Rannoch Moor, the dramatic scenery of Glencoe and the rugged highland scenery of The Great Glen. View the imposing Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness and maybe even spot the Loch Ness Monster! Stop at the picturesque village at Fort Augustus for lunch and a stroll along the Caledonian canal. This 12 hour tour includes quite a lot of travelling but is a very rewarding day, seeing a lot of Scotland if you are time-limited. Please note that this tour doesn't run in December or January because of limited daylight hours.

Lucky us!

Published on Feb, 2025

I highly recommend this company for any of their excursions. Our driver, Cali, was waiting outside our hotel door just before pickup time at 9:00 a.m. He was an excellent driver, and very friendly. Lots of information through narrative and we were very comfortable with his driving skills and knowledge of the history of his country. We were fast friends right from the start. He knew all the right places to show us and we had plenty of stops. We had lunch at Loch Ness and ice cream in Pitlochry. Nothing was rushed and he knew all the back roads to avoid any traffic and crowds. The beautiful Mercedes van was well appointed with a cute little refrigerator loaded with drinks and snacks. It sure didn't hurt that we had gorgeous weather. Warm and sunny. This afforded us some great views that are often shrouded in rain or fog. Cali dropped us off at about 8 pm And we were sorry the day was over. If we can get back to Scotland, we will definitely use Experienced Tours again.

The Best Tour We Have Ever Taken

Published on Jan, 2025

Where do we even begin to describe this incredible tour experience with Calais?!?!?! My husband and I took our young teen grandson to the UK as a special gift. Calais met us at the airport in the wee hours and because our grandson is a huge Harry Potter fan, he took us through Edinburgh to see the sights and take pictures. He even gave us a surprise drive through the suburbs to see some unique and beautiful homes. From there we travelled to the Highlands. The weather was cold and a bit damp but we had a beautiful, roomy elegant van to travel in. Calais has a vast knowledge of Scotland, has a wonderful, witty, happy personality. He made our grandson feel like a peer and he took us to places that were absolutely stunning. We had a gorgeous walk in the woods and viewed waterfalls, he explained the importance of the natural landscape in Scotland’s history; we took a boat ride and went to castle ruins. We stayed at a lovely hotel at River Ness. We fell in love with Inverness and it’s charms. Everything from soup to nuts was taken care of for us. We will most certainly be returning again with family and friends. THANK YOU!

Excellent trip through the Highlands

Published on Dec, 2024

I've been on multiple trips with Experienced Tours whenever family visits from the states and each one has been excellent. This time, we went through the Highlands with our guide Calais who - despite the Scottish weather in December - showed us some of the wonderful sights in the Highlands.
