  • 5Brilliant day out to Oban, Glencoe & West highland Castle with Blair

    What a wonderful tour from start to finish. Blair was exceptional & such a credit to the company. He was extremely knowledgable on every aspect of the tour, and showed such an interest in ensuring everyone on the tour had a great time! We will 100% be back on Blair’s bus for another tour full of banter & plenty of fabulous sites along the way!

  • 4Very picturesque!!!

    Fantastic choice of places to visit, many opportunities to take stunning pictures. Small group which was great! It would be lovely if the guide made sure ALL the participants understood him as they come from all over the world ( maybe speak a bit slower? Don't drop the jokes though 🙂!)

  • 5Absolutely fabulous experience

    Jerry, our driver / guide was great. He was both very knowledgeable and fun. Another plus was a small size of the group ( 6 people). The places we visited were stunning, there was time to take pictures of breathtaking vistas and to have a delicious lunch in Oban. We wholeheartedly recommend this trip.

  • 5The best time and the best tour guide (Blair)

    Our tour from Glasgow to the Highlands was an absolute highlight of our trip to Scotland. We had Blair as our tour guide and could not recommend him more. He was so knowledgeable about the Highlands and kept us entertained the whole trip with fun facts, stories, and a curated music playlist that gave us a taste of Highland culture. He was an absolute joy and even played us live music at a little pub on our way back. We loved every second of the tour!

About Glasgow

Glasgow is Scotland's largest city, a Victorian port on the Clyde with galleries, live music and red-sandstone terraces, and Loch Lomond close by.

Glasgow grew on the River Clyde through shipbuilding, tobacco and trade, and its Victorian wealth shows in the red sandstone of its terraces, museums and merchant halls. The medieval cathedral, which survived the Reformation intact, stands beside the Necropolis, a hill of Victorian tombs. The Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, a red-stone palace, holds Salvador Dalí's Christ of St John of the Cross and a Spitfire hanging in its hall.

Top-ranked sights in Glasgow: Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park, Glasgow Cathedral, George Square.
