Good experience - The tour was really nice. Charlie was a great guide! The bus should have more leg space to make the seating comfortable.

Amazing experience - Charles/Charlie did a fabulous job. Right from the time of pick up he gave us great historic insights and ensured we up to date on historical knowledge. He ensured every passenger was comfortable. He also has some great taste in music. Would have loved to give him a tip but he did not mention it at the end Will definitely ask my friends to go on this tour

A great way to spend a day! - A wonderful tour ran by a friendly, and very knowledgable guide Stewart and his knitted Nessie. We were really blessed with the weather and the views were all breathtaking! One of the highlights was meeting the lovely highland cows, I didn't know they were usually black and they were lovely to see! Would highly recommend this tour!

Beautiful scenery, fantastic Stevie and gorgeous Highland cattle - We had a brilliant day out thanks to our driver and tour guide Stevie. The scenery in this part of Scotland is beautiful and Stevie really made it come alive for us with his commentary. Highlights were the trip to Loch Ness, where we had time to go on the boat, and feeding the Highland cattle. Would definitely recommend.

Easy travel to Loch Ness, Glencoe & Highland. - My second tour with Timberbush. We have a glooming wheather of 90% rain from weather forecast on traveling day. May not able to see the full bright of the highland. However, our coach n Driver Stuart able to share the stories of Scotland and enlighten us in journey. He is a caring and patience person. The bus arrived earlier and we departed right on time. This program was good for traveller to enjoy beautiful scenery across the interesting highland. We are considered lucky as able to complete all photo stops without wet.

Manage the Tour: Passenger Code of Understanijg. - The trip is amazing but the tour guide did not manage effectively the passengers time especially returning to the bus. I think it is important to have common understanding so we could enjoy all the sites. When passengers are late then other folks don’t have the positive experience. Also, distinguish the “Scottish highlands” versus Glencoe; tell us what to look for in the trip. Lastly, a lot of people were “over talking” the tour guide which we could not hear what was going on (I.e., this history) . The tour guide did not moderate the process for time and over talking among the passengers.
