Best tour ever!!! - We did the wow tour bus to Isle of Skye. It is a full day tour well worth the money!! We had an amazing experience!! Our guide Murdoch picked us up in Inverness and he didn’t stop smiling all day! He told stories about the history and the folklore of Scotland and we were transported. We had a great time visiting the sights and a great time listening to him on the bus. He is quite the story teller. We had a great lunch from the Isle of Skye baking cie ( highly recommend this!) the shop is beautiful lots of local art. The lunch was amazing and a great portion- enough to have a cake and a cookie later ( we got an extra scone too to try it - so worth it!). We couldn’t have had a better experience!!! We saw the sights but now we feel more connected to the story!! Will go to bed dreaming of kelpies and picturing that rolling fog coming down those green pastures! Thank you!!!!

Excellent guide and a very well planned tour - I had a hard time convincing my husband to go on this 12 hour tour but he ended up really enjoying it. Yes it is a long day but the stops were frequent and very interesting. We had over 90 minutes at the Fairy Pools which is plenty of time to hike all the way up. We also had ample time to explore Portree as WOW arranges pickup lunches which allowed us to spend all of our time there exploring instead of waiting in line for lunch. But what really made the tour was our guide Andrew. He was entertaining, funny and genuinely loves his job. By the end of the tour he felt like a friend not a guide. His storytelling made the long drive back go by very quickly. We did pay the extra for the front of the bus seats and that was worth every penny for the view- and to be first off of the bus for the bathroom queue!

Beautiful and informative tour! - Andrew was an absolute delight! Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable of the area, but also the history of Scotland. He kept us entertained and informed as we were taken to some of the most beautiful areas we had ever seen. Andrew made sure to tell us about the people and the establishments that make that area special to him, giving the tour such a personal touch. We could not recommend this tour enough!

Delightful and worth every penny! - We were delighted with our trip to Skye with Andrew! There was so much to see, and he told wonderful stories from Scottish history. Stops along the way we're well-timed, and lunch at the Skye Baking Company was ample and delicious. Highly recommended!

Not to be missed - What a wonderful day, the tour included some fabulous stops and the scenery was just breathtaking! Andrew our Driver/tour guide was a delight from the moment he greeted us all at the start of the day. His knowledge and stories of Scotland was outstanding and we came away feeling like we knew so much more about this beautiful country. So Thank you Andrew and WOW Tours for a day we will not forget.
