Great tour of Lochness - Great and very informative tour by Emily. She gave great recommendations for where to eat and was full of knowledge on the tour. The views on the cruise were lovely and we very much enjoyed each stop, from the cruise, to the castle, and to the Singleton distillery. One small feedback would be that I was surprised the museum was not included. Perhaps my misread in advance though.

Nice slice of Scotland - A variety of activities that perfectly capture Scotland. Castle, boat ride across Loch Ness, whiskey, Jacobites and more. Emily was great tour guide/driver, clearly loved her job. Would recommend.

Great tour with Emily - Emily was funny, warm, and fully in command of the route from Inverness to Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle. She kept the day running smoothly, shared interesting stories without overloading the group, and created a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.
