Fairy Pools and Stunning Views - Fully recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit the Fairy Pools and Dunvagan Castle - you'll get about 01h 30m at each site. The tour alsl goes through some of the most breathtaking areas of the Island of Skye. Our tour guide - Torquil - kept us entertained with historic facts and tales of Skye and also introduced us to some great Scottish music!

Isle of skye tour with fairy pools - It was a great tour, very interesting and full of great impressions. Well organized with enough breaks and times to visit the individual highlights. Torquil was a very sympathetic tour guide with many interesting facts. The bus was very comfortable and a manageable group.

A fun tour with beautiful views and multiple interesting stops! - We had an absolutely lovely experience the whole time! This tour makes for a very long day, but it is certainly worth it! Every stop we made was beautiful and interesting. Our tour guide, Torquil, was so welcoming and engaging throughout the entire trip. He presented lots of information, but of course threw in a few good (and bad) jokes to keep us engaged. I would happily recommend this tour to anyone interested!

Great day in Isle of Skye - Torquil was an amazing driver, sharing both his knowledge and music. We had sunny weather and managed to walk more than 18,000 steps. I highly recommend this trip!

Lively tour - Our guide (Torquil) was quite the character! Always a story to tell, humor, and so nice. The trip was wonderful, a bit wet, when you know you know. The Scottish landscape is so beautiful and this tour is the perfect choice if you want to discover it without effort.

Fun, Faeries, and the Isle of Skye - Had an awesome time with Sonia and the small group! Sonia did a great job pacing the day due to the varying Highlands weather and kept us truly entertained with stories during the drive. Thank you so much!

Wonderful!! Be sure!! ⛰️☀️ (Tour guide Emily: Queen of Fun) - The day tour was incredibly fun - absolutely make it!! Our tour guide Emily knew an incredible amount about Scottish folklore and the island of Skye. A great mix exploring the island by minibus, as well as walking and discovering for yourself. Especially the stories about fairies and kelpies, the legend of the Munros and many other stories she told with so much excitement but also humor that the tour will stay with me for a long time. I'm incredibly happy about these beautiful hours. Only the stop at Portree might give way, this one is relatively short. These minutes would be all the more worthwhile at the fairy pools or at the castle 🧚🏻♂️
