Scottish Castles Tours from Edinburgh

It was absolutely amazing! Seeing the Highlands and Loch Ness was so impressive, the nature was breathtakingly beautiful. Throughout the tour on the bus was pleasant as well as Erin provided us with all sorts of interesting facts and explanations about the surroundings and history of Scotland. It was amazing! I would recommend to bring your own lunch as time flies by on the stops you make so you can spend the time on eating and enjoying the breaks instead of standingin the queue to get food. I would also make a visit to the toilet a priority at every stop as the other touring busses stop at the same places you'll often have to wait in line for things. I would definitely recommend this trip. Its nice to be out of the city if you go there for a week and because it has given our first stay in Scotland(Edinburgh) a way more complete view of this amazingly beautiful country!

We loved being on time to all the places on our list to see

Beautiful views, great guide Russel, very comfortable and safe transportation.

Really great tour! Euan our tour guide was very well spoken and educated on Scottish history. The bus ride was a little long, but was well worth it because of the frequent outstanding stops for pictures and snacks. We spent the extra 20 quid for the Loch Ness boat tour and that was also well worth the cost.

My mom and I had a great time on the Outlander tour. We went on this tour not because it featured properties that were featured in the TV series, but because we wanted to visit these properties. The tour guide and driver were amazing (David Ewan) and they made the day so much fun with their great personalities and stories. It was a great tour to go on whether you are a fan of the TV series or if you just want to see some really interesting historical sites.

We had a lovely time - the trip was very well organized. Our guide/driver Kristy (I hope I'm spelling her name right) did a phenomenal job with her excellent driving, great storytelling and overall nice personality. We'll definitely recommend this trip to our friends!

Excellent tour - a long day, but you see loads and there are regular stops along the way to stretch your legs and take a closer look at particular points of interest. Colin, our driver, was very knowledgeable and made the day come alive. The boat trip was excellent. Definitely recommend; well worth the money.

If you are have limited time in Edinburgh, don't want to trouble yourself with driving and love to hear stories about the highlands, then this is it! With no doubt, Steve is a wonderful person who have tons of knowledge and histories to share with you. Also, he's very funny, very Scottish, he said, I quote "know how to speak Gaelic". He also can point to you which shops sell the best chippy and bread! The only reason I wouldn't recommend this trip is if you have motion sickness because highlands can be a little snake pass. But hey! That's a thrill for some others ;)

It’s amazing tour Steve was great, he is funny and also he’s a good driver, he told great stories during the trip and played music a long the way, he’s makes the tour very entertaining and not boaring. The scenery was spectacular even though the weather was cloudy. It’s perfect tour to see Scotland nature

This was the best trip of our 4 day stay in Edinburgh. Big shout out to Bryan Smith from The Hairy Coo. He was really funny and gave a really good commentary about Scottish history, which I liked. He made the trip very enjoyable, even getting the whole coach to sing. Big thank you from your London family including Moose, your wingman!!

Rory was our tour guide and he was brilliant. Gave us loads of information and stories of the history of places as we passed them. He gave us plenty of time at each stop and kept us fully informed of where we were/going. He played some grate music and had some funny jokes. It was the best bus tour I've ever been on and I can't recommend him highly enough.

My sister and I really enjoyed this trip. We knew beforehand that it was a long drive and that most of the time would be spent on the bus so that wasn’t a surprise. Of course we wished we had more time for pictures or more stops in the highlands of Scotland, but for a day trip it was amazing. Our guid and driver, Peter, was amazing, he had lots of useful information (historical, geographical, technical, fun facts) and he even played some scottish music for us. For lunch we went to the Bridge Cafe, the food there is amazing, perfect comfort food. We had the leek and potatos soup and it was just what we needed as we watched the drizzle outside. Loch Ness has a breathtaking view, we could not make ourselves leave the place. We are so glad we decided to choose this trip.

This was an absolutely amazing experience! I cannot recommend it enough. Our tour guide Allen was so knowledgeable and kind, and we learned so much from him. The views are stunning, sure to take your breath away, and the stops are spaced out nicely so that you don’t get restless on the bus. The small villages and towns are beyond charming. Frankly, even upon returning to Edinburgh after a long 13 hour day, I would have turned around and done it all over again.

Paul was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and funny! We are very happy with the tour.

The tour guide, Michael, was excellent. Great driver, entertaining and knowledgeable. Felt 4.5 hours on a bus one way to look at a lake and a fair bit of commerce was a bit much. The info along the way and the highlands saved the day. I think the tour company should have warned about boat ride tickets before we left Edinburgh as we couldn't buy them later as they were sold out by the time we got to Fort Augustus.

This was a fun tour and great if you don’t have much time to fully visit the highlands. I would have liked more time at the viaduct and memorial, and at Glencoe, and less time at the shops/eating areas where there wasn’t much to do other than buy food or souvenirs.

We loved our tour guide Paul!! So outgoing, friendly and competent!!! Because of him we learned a lot about the history of the city, the monuments and the interesting fact about the writing and the Harry Potter spots in the city!!! Appreciate it and higly recommend!!!

The tour was really good as we didn’t need to drive. The least you want to do on holidays drive the roads you don’t know. The highlands were really impressive. The driver Rich was very knowledgable and friendly. The only thing we would change extra 45 min would be nice after we leave ship

Our guide was energetic, informative about history and funny. He made sure we knew enough to get the most out of each stop, the scenery along the way, and to eat well while still keeping things on schedule. It was a highlight for our group of 5 to be able to just take it all in, at a reasonable pace, and to see first-hand why Outlander wisely made use of so many incredible venues and scenery in Scotland. I'd do a Rabbie's tour again anytime, and use Getmyguide on my jaunts around the world. Fabulous!

The trip was super fun and the scenery was beautiful but be aware that you will not be able to see the train on the viaduct we hat to depart 20 minutes bevor it arrived also the stop at the viaduct was only one hour so there was not enough time for us so see the loch on which Dumbledore is laid to rest which is on the opposite side of the parking lot
