Old Man of Storr: Tours & Tickets

We have never visited Scotland before and we opted to join a tour as it would take away the planning, the driving and the stress involved in the logistics. We were drawn to this tour as it visited the Isle of Skye had a good itinerary and we wanted to travel the steam train. We were certainly not disappointed. From the minute we arrived at the check in for the adventure, the staff were friendly and organised. We had Yvonne for our trip, and she immediately impressed me. To be frank, she made the trip... given she was running the driving, the tour guide and planning etc. She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable about the local history and with a fantastic personality that drew everyone on the tour into what become a friends day out. We would have no qualm in booking again and are already looking at tours further afield and will certainly be asking for Yvonne by name. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Our guide, Michael, was fantastic. Genuinely nice guy with an obvious love for his country and the Isle of Skye. He was informative throughout and encouraged questions The trip itself is very good. There are enough stops along the way to stop you being bored on the mini bus, though at some spots you aren’t there long enough. It’s understandable, though, considering how many places we visited. Being in Inverness for a few days, this was a perfect way to get out and see the scenery, with a couple of castles, and of course the Fairy Pools. They were rather busy for our visit, but nothing you. And I about that! Popular place. I’d just say I wish we had longer at each stop. I would have rather been able to stay longer the the pools, distillery, and Portree than stop off for the smaller castle photo opportunities. But that’s just me. Overall, had a great day!

This tour was really good due to the tour guide, Michael was very knowledgeable on the history in the area and of Scotland in general. The only drawback for me was I would have liked to have heard some traditional music in the background during the drive.....the weather was not cooperative for the tour so no fairy pools but all of the stops were really great and Michael definitely tried to get us some ad on photo opportunities at other historic landmarks because of the weather so that was very thoughtful! Thanks Michael for a great day out in the highlands!

This was probably the best tour I ever went on. Our guide, Michael, was very professional and friendly. I was amazed with the amount of knowledge he had concerning the Highlands and the attractions. The van was flawless and very comfortable. The weather was not on our side and most of the time there was intense rain, but that did not ruin the experience. Due to the rain it was not possible to visit the Fairy Pools, but Michael made it his mission to adapt the route so that we could still enjoy the views. Absolutely amazing experience - 10/10 reccomended

The whole trip was brilliant,cant fault the firm as they did their utmost to help us reconnect with the tour in Portree after us missing the 8am start...Alison our driver was sooo knowledgable aboutScottish History and made it Fun..and im from the Highlands..lol Thankyou and will recommend to friends and family.
