Highlights

Visit the Highlands with a Kilted Scotsman! Starting from Edinburgh. As your tour is private you are in charge of the places you want to visit and how much time you would like to spend at each site! We recommend an early start to take full advantage of the day at 7:30am from your accommodation however if you wish to start the tour at 8:30am this is also fine. Once booked we can potentially extend your tour for a second day and stay in Inverness or Aberdeen so you have even more time to explore the Highlands. So what can you expect? Beautiful scenery? Yes! Scottish history? Absolutely! A perfect playlist and maybe even some karaoke in the minibus? We'll have to wait and see! Once booked your guide will contact you to arrange the pick-up time and location, discuss the interests of your group and help with booking any visitor attractions you may be interested in visiting along the way. Entry fee prices can be found online for all visitor attractions and we are happy to help with this.

About Edinburgh

Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, rises on volcanic hills, with a castle on a crag, a medieval Old Town and an elegant Georgian New Town.

Edinburgh Castle crowns Castle Rock and keeps the Honours of Scotland, the Scottish crown jewels. From there, the Royal Mile runs downhill through the Old Town, past St Giles' Cathedral and a warren of narrow closes, to the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament. Arthur's Seat, an ancient volcano, rises above the palace with sweeping views.

Top-ranked sights in Edinburgh: Royal Mile, Edinburgh Old Town, Edinburgh Castle.
