Invergordon cruise excursion to Loch Ness , Inverness, Culloden

Taking this private tour was a great decision. Lawrence, our driver and guide for the day, was excellent, taking great care of us, making sure we got into the venues, castles, etc. not just dropping us off in the parking lot. Professional, he shared his knowledge and history of the area. Schedule was flexible, so we were able to spend a little more time in Inverness. Met us at the Invergordon cruise port and returned us on time. Would book again!

Lawrence was very accommodating to customizing our tour. Was a WONDERFUL time! He took in to account our preferences, and even did a little research on family backgrounds and clan affiliation. It was my best 60th birthday so far.

Our guide himself was one of the highlights actually. Graham was amazing. Easy to work with, funny, and super knowledgeable. Took great care of us. One of our trip highlights.

Billy was the absolute best tour guide! Our group had a wonderful time! He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about all of our stops! Every stop on the tour was amazing! My favorite was the Cawdor Castle and Gardens!

Our tour guide, Kevin, showed us the grandeur of Lochness, the exquisite gardens of Cawdor Castle, an old Stonehenge like ruin, called Balnuaren of Clava, the site of the Battle of Culloden, a visit to see the "hurry coos" (hairy cows) and lunch at a fantastic local eatery. We were in a caravan of three cars snd all the hosts were accommodating. They also provided us with tasty local snacks and water. Thank you for sharing your beautiful homeland with us! We visited so many places but did not feel rushed.

Billy met us at the port of Invergordon, on time and ready to show us Scotland. I had a few key places I wanted to see, Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle, Battle of Culloden and Clava Cairns. Billy made many more stops and I was very impressed with his knowledge. I truly appreciate the extra effort and time to show us as much as he could. We had a short stop in Canterbury and Billy recommended a lovely lunch cafe. This tour went beyond my expectations. At the end of the tour, he gifted us with some lovely Tea cakes. I highly recommend Highlander Private Tours. The cost shadows with the experience, time, and memories.

I would recommend this tour to anyone coming off a cruise ship and has a day to spend in the area. Billy Maclean was our tour guide and took very good care of us. He was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our day with him. He was very flexible given we docked late and was able to fit everything in we wanted to do.

I enjoyed my trip to Inverness very much. The driver showed us many different sightseeing attractions and told us something about the history. As an "Outlander-fan" the driver took us for instance to the locations the author Diana Gabaldon got her ideas from.

I thank you Billie very much for this unusual experience. I like to think back on this journey.

Kevin did a wonderful job on this tour. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job showing us all the historical locations that we wanted to visit. I would recommend this tour.

William Maclean was the ultimate tour guide and driver. He is personable, knowledgeable, charming, and entertaining; it was a pleasure to spend the day with him. We learned fascinating details about the Battle of Culloden, walked along the shore of Loch Ness, enjoyed a pub in Inverness (Gellions), and much more. William (Billy) was gracious and thoughtful throughout the day; he ensured our comfort, shared countless fascinating stories, and made every single stop fascinating and fun. In addition, ‘Outlander’ fans will especially enjoy his behind-the-scenes stories. Finally, on a purely practical note, he is a very safe and dependable driver. Billy’s cordial nature and knowledge of the Highlands made our day even better than we had imagined it would be. He is fabulous, and we would definitely hire William Maclean again. Very well done!
