What a fabulous guided tour with Highland Explorer Tours today to Fort William & the Jacobite Train experience. Our guide Harrison kept us entertained & informed from the very start to the very end of the tour. His fun facts, narrative & awesome playlists taught us so much and kept us laughing. The scenery was breathtaking and Harrison had us in all the right places at the right times to ensure we saw & experienced everything the tour promised. Would happily book another tour with him, great value for money & a great day out
