“Complete waste of our money. We could't understand ANYTHING the guide said, his accent was so thick. We have no trouble with anyone else in Scotland at the hotel and restaurants and shops. And worse than that was the problem with the heat. The van was outrageously HOT and we asked over 15 times to turn it down. He would, and then it would go on again within a minute. He said it was automated or something. Horrible. And the driver was going extremely fast on small curvy roads in the rain hitting large puddles of water flying all over his windshield.

“This was a fabulous day. Our guide was Colin. He was so very friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable and a great driver.

Our only regret is that when my husband gave Colin a tip he realized a few minutes later that he had given Colin Canadian money by accident. We hope Colin wasn’t insulted.”

“The Driver was just there, not interesting didn't get a lot from this tour, others said the same thing. It was a lot of riding in the coach to be so bored. He went back to Lock Lohman because he thought it was too busy to go there first. It was closing as we got there, never got a chance to see anything much. The driver seemed like he didn't like his job.”
