Terribly, terribly, terribly wonderful time! - Andrew is a great tour guide. His humor and personality really endears him to you like a longtime friend. Thank you for making the Isle of Skye tour a rich time filled with an almost encyclopedic understanding of Scotland and a behind-the-scene history with interesting little facts. When we said goodbye, it felt like we were saying goodbye to a dear friend, then the end of a business transactions. In every way, with gratitude, and appreciation, we are so glad we booked our tour with Timberbush, and that we had the gift of having Andrew as our guide.

The trip is one-of-kind and so is Scott, the tour guide! - Each site was more beautiful than the next. The trip felt so well planned. Scott, our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, personable, patient, and had a great Scottish themed playlist that created the perfect ambiance to the beautiful scenery. Highly recommend this tour and particularly, Scott.

Discovering Scotland - We chose this 3-day tour (Highlands, Isle of Skye and Loch Ness) before leaving for Scotland because our Italian tour was cancelled a week before departure and we didn't get to look on the sites or the various comparisons of itineraries between the different agencies. The tour is very nice and suggestive but in our opinion not complete. Our guide Neil was very knowledgeable and a very good driver. If I have to make a small note, I would add a stop at the famous Glennfinnan Viaduct (the famous viaduct where the Harry Potter train passes), because it is a shame to pass by and not see it. In my opinion, entering this stop the tour would be perfect and complete

Wonderful guide, sides, bit horrible accomodation - The tour guide andrew was absolutely wonderful and had a really lovely music taste, what a relief! Also absolutely must-see beautiful sights! However, the booked accomodation Tongadale hotel (Skye) for me left much to be desired and I barely slep two nights in a row. The rooms are very dated cubicles, you could hear other guests snoring as if they were in the same room. It’s above a cafe that produces noise till late and then vacuum clean at midnight. You could hear other guests snore through the wall. The cafe in the morning smells like wet carpet/beer and wet dog (which makes you lose your appetite) and service is plain awful, food is mid. Would ask to avoid this hotel, other properties seemed much better.

Highlands and Isle of Skye Tour - We booked two tours. The first not done, we were not warned that it had been cancelled, we waited in vain at the collection point and had the day ruined. The second, done quite well, except that the bus driver drove like crazy the whole trip. I totally understand the timing, but you can't drive like that in the highlands and on the Isle of Skye
