it was a memorable trip. Our driver John was energetic and friendly and he provided so much information which kept us awake whole tour. loved every moment of this. In future, i would just like to add that some rocking music needs to be played inside bus which prompts tourists to dance on groovy numbers.

Please opt for Brian Smith, the best and the most entertaining tour guide. I enjoyed the tour most because of him. The tour has selected the best of places in the Highlands and Isle of Skye. No time is wasted and you get to cover as many places as possible. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

We had a great time on our tour, saw so many beautiful areas of Scotland and had a good amount of time to look around at each place we stopped. Our guide Jamie was absolutely amazing! He had a wealth of knowledge about everything Scotland and kept us entertained with great stories and music. Definitely recommend this experience!

A great trip that is definitely worth going on. Breathtaking views, fantastic guide. Very sociable, he had a lot of funny jokes in his party, but also stories about the area told in an interesting way, there was also some Scottish music on the board of the bus. Great atmosphere. Only the stops could be slightly longer in one place and shorter in another.

I had this 3 day tour back in early July. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had. As the only solo traveller on this trip I was offered the seat right at the front, allowing me to see more of the stunning views from there and back down. Each day was amazing and there was so much to see. The Scottish Highlands are truly a stunning part of the world. Our tour guide was Rose, who is an absolute phenomenon at storytelling and a PRO at driving, who made us all feel at ease on those narrow roads! I cannot recommend this trip enough! I'm already planning to A massive thank you to Rose! And to the Hairy Coo company for this amazing, unforgettable experience!

Very good tour in general, spectacular landscapes to take your breath away, but most of the time is spent inside the bus, understandable by the distance between round trip. A trip worth it to get to know the highlands and Loch Ness region. However, there are some points that are worth highlighting so that it can be improved, the "Lunch" that actually shouldn't even have that name, in fact is nothing more than "bread, ham and sauce" besides potato chips, should be informed better in the details, it is not worth taking this option. For the price you pay on the tour, at least they should offer water and they didn't even have that. Another thing that bothered me a lot was not being able to recline the seat, informed by the guide (so as not to disturb the colleague in the back). I've never seen a situation like this, I thought it left something to be desired due to the long journey. In the most worth it for the landscape and the place. And the option with cru

One of the most beautiful countries I ever been. The tour is espetacular, we went in October, and even with the close to bad weather, the landscape is amazing. The staff is helpful and the driver has all the historical points ready to tell. We learned a lot. I really recommend.

Murray the driver was amazing the whole way through the trip. Telling us about all the things we passed as Joking as we went as well. The views are amazing. only thing we would have changed was the waiting around at Loch Ness as we didn't want to do the castle or boat trip and all there is is a shop and cafe. so entertaining yourself for an hour and a half was a bit tricky, but that's not Murrays fault. He was great. it was a lovely day out and worth the money

Steven and Tony were a phenomenal duo for this tour. Either one of them would have made this a memorable experience, and I will be sure to recommend The Hair Coo to anyone I know is coming to Scotland. If I only had three days here, none of it would feel wasted if all I did was the three day tour. There's just so much to experience between Stevens stories, the sites to visit, and the towns to explore.

A great way to see the highlands, entertaining stories about every point of interest on the way, well timed stops, breath taking scenery, discounted tickets for boat on Loch Ness, great recommendations where to eat and what to explore on stops. The mood on board was great, was a packed bus of happy people. My children are 8 & 9, they found it a long day, we all did but it was worth every minute.

It was excellent. John, our guide, was amazing when he talks you can feel the passion about Scotland, his pride to be Scottish. He entertained us all day long with stories, legends and facts about the highlands and Scotland in general. I loved the experience

It was a long tour but with plenty of stopping (about every 2h on average). Scott was very energetic and had a lot of info to share. Great driver. Music playlist was great (please, share!). Phone chargers on the bus were not working. Glen Coe definitely worths a separate visit. Overall, it was great to get a glimpse of different parts of Scotland, including the Loch Ness.

We had a fantastic day with Steven B who was funny and informative! We liked the stories mixed with the history, and adding the music was a great touch too! Lots of stops and we saw more than expected from the road, including the Kelpies and lots of castles as well as the gorgeous scenery of the Highlands. Definitely worth visiting Urquhart Castle and doing the Loch Ness boat tour (optional extras).

Great trip with beautiful stops on the way. The highlight of the day is definitely the Urquhart Castle and Loch Ness. We were lucky to have beautiful sunny weather and the views were breathtaking. The guide was great: knowlegeable and funny. He talked for hours about Scotland and its history with great passion. He made the time spent on the bus really enjoyable.

Now every time I hear Bridge over troubled water I'll think of crossing the Forth bridge in Scotland. Because Brian knew what songs to play at the proper moments and is excellent at creating memories, his storytelling was exceptional. He has a way of rousing the crowd to make it an enthusiastic and enjoyable experience. Most notably he's a proud Scotsman and made me feel proud to be a MacDonald. It was evident that he is the right man for the job, enjoys himself and I highly recommend him as a tour guide. I hope he was appropriately tipped.

I had the most amazing time on this trip. I would recommend it to everyone. The best thing is that I had a driver named Ryan, who had amazing knowledge and provided 12.5 hours of pure energy and entertainment. Things to keep in mind, you will need cash for the boat ride (for me it was £16.50 for an adult, I think it was £11 for a child). You have plenty of time in the coach to relax and listen to the history of Scotland. I would definitely recommend bringing snacks and a mini picnic in case you get hungry, but I assure you there are plenty of places to get food in Loch Ness. There were plenty of stops to go to the toilet as well and the driver was very accommodating. Thank you Ryan for an amazing trip to the Highlands.

Chris P was an amazing driver. He knows all about his country and history. His way to speak it is a lot of fun. This guy has a lot of humor. Be aware that the trip is rather long (500 km) but the good thing is you will see a great variation of the highland. Enjoy

A must-do! This is a packed day with a lot of time spent on the coach, but our guide, Erin, and driver, Shug, made the time fly by. In between playing music by Scottish and Gallic artists, to telling us facts about the area we drove through, the miles go by fast and the sights are amazing. Aside from the main attractions, the Kelpies, castles and lochs are an added bonus. Highly recommended!

Great experience. Really knowledgeable and interesting guide. Couldn’t believe how much we learned and saw in the 12 hours. The rest stops are a bit limited food wise, so if you have any allergies or special dietary requirements definitely stock up before hand. If you don’t though, then you’ll find something easily at each place. Would recommend and do again. The day flew by.
