You will love Avril Tours! - We went with Lorraine on a Go South excursion. She was knowledgeable, pleasant, and did everything to get us in sights before the big buses came. You will be very pleased if you select this tour.

Fun times - We were on the Viking Saturn and Avril gave us great directions on how to connect. Everything was very smooth. Lorraine was a bundle of energy and information. We saw the castle, the stones, the battlefield, the loch and the lovely cows. It was a highlight of our cruise.

Recommended tour, great guide - Great tour in Avril's car, as there were only two of us. We had an informative day with lots of stops. Cawdor Castle was very worthwhile, Inverness, Loch Ness and the Highlands in the sun... we saw stone graves and stone rings and the Culloden battlefield. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Highlands Tour - Amazing Highland tour would absolutely recommend! Our tour guide Lorraine did a phenomenal job and knew the history and was a great guide. We opted to take this private tour instead of the tour that was offered on our ship. We are so glad we did. It was a very small group of 8 and had a very comfortable clean van. All of the stops were very interesting and we had no issues with returning to our ship on time. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Awesome experience - There were 8 of us touring around with Amy T and she was a lot of fun and a wealth of knowledge educating us about the Best of Scottish Highlands. If anyone is looking to explore The Outlanders series on where some of it was filmed this is the tour for you. We also visited the Culloden Battlefield and went to find the Loch Ness Monster, Nessie. Great job, Amy. Awesome day.

Avril’s Travels is a Scottish Delight! - Avril was the perfect guide for my fun big family! We had the best time in the Scottish Highlands with her. We had teens, parents, and a grandma in our group, and everyone was thoroughly entertained. Avril guides her tours with personality and heart, we would book with her again in a heartbeat.

Cawdor Castle, Clara Cairns, Culloden battlefield, Loch Ness,and a Highland farm. - One of the best excursions we,ve been on in ages. We had plenty of time at each stop, and we feel that we got a good taste of the Highlands.
Our guide, Amy from Avril's Tours, was very knowledgeable, engaging, and humorous. In spite of the language difference (deep South US vs Highland Scotts) we had no difficulty understanding her, and we were able to absorb enough that we feel that we got a good taste of the Highlands.
This tour was well worth the cost and time.
We were on a cruise, but didn't book through the ship. Easy peas all the way.
