By far the best day of our trip to Scotland. I have been considered to be a somewhat aggressive driver having owned several sports cars. We rented a car for the duration of our stay. After reading some reviews we decided to let go of isle of Skye part of our trip and do a tour for the day. We are so glad that I did. First it was the only day that I got to truly enjoy the scenery. Also the roads up to Neist Point were drivable but would not have been an enjoyable experience for my wife or myself. Finally, our guide was fantastic. Took us to see everything we wanted with great commentary. So much information that we would not have gotten from a book or online research. He also took us on a couple of side excursions that were not on our itinerary that allowed us to see things off the beaten path and to interact with the locals. If you want some local flavor do go to the giant museum. Cannot recommend highly enough

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review! I’m delighted to hear that your day exploring the Isle of Skye with us was the highlight of your trip to Scotland.
It’s wonderful that you were able to relax and fully enjoy the breathtaking scenery without the stress of navigating those winding roads—Neist Point is absolutely stunning, but as you said, it’s not the easiest drive! I’m glad we could help make the experience enjoyable for both you and your wife.
It’s great to hear you appreciated the commentary and those little side excursions off the beaten path. The local stories and hidden gems truly add that extra bit of magic to the journey, and I’m so pleased you got to experience that.
Thank you for trusting us with your Isle of Skye adventure, and for your kind recommendation. If you’re ever back in Scotland, it would be a pleasure to take you on another adventure!
All the best,
Ryan Mackenzie-Raymond

My wife and I did a full day tour to Isle of Skye with Ryan and Sgurr Tours, and we had an absolute blast! His knowledge of Skye and Scotland is endless, and he retells it in an entertaining way. We purchased the photo package for our tour and he took the most amazing photos of us and the landscapes we visited. 12+ hours in the car with him absolutely flew by, we wish we could take him with us everywhere we go on vacation. Can not recommend him enough, he seriously made our vacation complete!

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words Tracy! I'm thrilled to hear you and Ashley had such an amazing time exploring the Isle of Skye with me. Sharing Scotland's beauty and stories is something I truly love, and it's fantastic to know you enjoyed the journey (and the photo package too)! The time flew by for me as well—I couldn't ask for better company. If you're ever back in Scotland or planning another adventure, I'd love to show you more of this beautiful country. Thanks again for choosing Sgùrr Tours—it means the world to me! 😊 Happy New Year :)

After deciding we didn’t want to navigate to isle of skye using our own rental car, we decided to book this private tour! It exceeded our expectations! I traveled with my mom and sister and it made the day stress free not having to drive or locate sights on our own. Our tour guide was very professional, knowledgeable, and super easy to talk to throughout our tour!
He was flexible and tailored the tour to what we wanted to see! He also took us to the most delicious spot for pizza!
Ryan M
Thank you for such a lovely review! I’m so pleased to hear that your private tour of the Isle of Skye exceeded expectations and that it gave you and your family a stress-free and enjoyable day.
Navigating Skye’s roads can be a bit tricky, so I’m glad we could take that off your plate and give you the chance to just relax and soak up the beauty of the Highlands. It’s wonderful to hear you found the tour tailored perfectly to your interests—flexibility is one of the perks of a private tour, and it’s always my aim to make sure you see exactly what’s most meaningful to you.
And yes, that pizza spot is a gem, isn’t it? Great food always adds something special to the day!
Thank you again for trusting us with your adventure. If you ever find yourself back in Scotland, we’d be delighted to welcome you for another day of exploration!
Best regards,

First and foremost Ryan was a complete professional, knew his history, and made what could have been a very long day fly by. We asked for a change in the itinerary and Ryan went out of his way to drive the extra time at the end of the day to make sure we saw the Culloden Battlefield. I would highly recommend his tour.
Ryan M
Hi Eva,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review! It was an absolute pleasure having you on tour, and I’m delighted to hear the day flew by for you—it’s always my goal to make the experience engaging and enjoyable from start to finish.
I’m glad we could adjust the itinerary to include Culloden Battlefield for you; it’s such an impactful and significant site, and I wouldn’t have wanted you to miss it. Flexibility is all part of the service, and I’m so pleased it made your day that bit more special.
Thank you again for your high recommendation! If you’re ever back in the Highlands, it would be wonderful to show you even more of this beautiful area.
Kind regards,

We had a great day! Ryan was charming, knowledgable, and well organized. We discussed our desired plans before the trip and Ryan executed them perfectly. In between stops he gave us great information, from history to the Gaelic language to current affairs in Scotland. We highly recommend him.

I always enjoy sharing the history, stories, and a bit of Gaelic along the way—it’s what makes each tour unique and special. Your kind recommendation means the world to me, and I’m so glad I could help make your day memorable.
If you ever find yourself back in the Highlands, it would be wonderful to explore more together!

My husband and I secured a private, full-day tour with Gavin. As with most, our holiday time allowed for one day to devote to this region. The day was PERFECT! We covered all the highlights and never felt rushed. Gavin was incredibly well-read on the rich history of the region…we learned so much! He was conversational and made our day a pure delight! We’ve traveled and toured extensively and this guide was a level above. I wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again.

HI Ellen,
Just getting around to responding to reviews that have been left over this past season now I have some down time.
Thank you so much for your kind words and glowing review! I'm absolutely thrilled to hear that your day with Gavin was perfect and that you felt relaxed while still covering all the highlights. Gavin is indeed a gem—his knowledge of the area's history and his natural ability to connect with guests make him an outstanding guide.
It means a lot to hear that your experience stood out among your many travels. If your journeys bring you back to the Highlands, we’d be delighted to help craft another unforgettable day for you.
Safe travels, and thank you for choosing Sgùrr Tours!
Best regards,
Ryan Mackenzie-Raymond

Awesome day with beautiful views. Our day started bright and early with Ryan picking us up at our hotel front door. He provided lots of history at all the stops and took us to a couple local spots we would have missed if on our own. He was friendly and made sure we were comfortable and had all our questions answered. Isle of Skye is absolutely beautiful and a must see if you are in Scotland. Ryan Mackenzie-Raymond is a great host and tour guide.

I would highly recommend this tour to the Isle of Skye! Ryan is a fantastic tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history, friendly and easy to talk to. He went above and beyond to make sure my family and I saw everything we wanted to. His driving was great on those narrow and twisty roads!
