I have always wanted to see the Loch Ness. It was very nice to see the other historic sites on this day trip. Our tour guide, Chris, was very professional and courteous.

Very passionate and professional guide and driver 😊😍
We had a very good time driving though the Highlands and boating on the Loch Ness. It was a magical experience.
It was a long trip, but we had stops on the way every hour or so, and got to see many different places of great interest.
Highly recommend this trip to anyone even solo traveler (I was!) ❤️

We had a fantastic day on our Rabbie’s group tour from Aberdeen to the Highlands & Loch Ness led by our knowledgable, entertaining and engaging driver-guide Doug.

The tour started and ended on time, with lots of little stops along the way as well as our main itinerary of Clava Cairns, Culloden Battlefield and Loch Ness. Extra highlights included a meet and greet with highland cows and seeing the stunning Old Craigellachie Bridge lit up at night. Nothing felt rushed, with a good balance between time on the road and time at attractions. The minibus was very comfortable and perfectly suited for the 12 hour day.

What elevated the tour from great to exceptional was our driver-guide, Doug. His commentary on the bus was engaging and it bought to life the history of the areas we passed through and balanced with an insight into contemporary Scotland topics too. We all came away having learnt a lot from the day. To top it off, the driving was smooth and the music on the way back to Aberdeen was great.

Overall, a fantastic day and we would have no hesitation to recommend this tour to anyone holidaying in Aberdeen looking for a taste of the highlands and Loch Ness. We look forward to booking another Rabbie’s tour soon!

Wonderful full day excursion. The bus was warm and comfortable and our guide/driver Jim was excellent not only in driving but also with a wealth of knowledge about our trip. The battlefield of Culloden was hauntingly beautiful. Loch Ness was very beautiful and the ferry trip was also worth it. Excellent day out with stop for lunch and comfort stops as well.

We enjoyed it all. Our guide/driver Jim was just great. Gave us lots of information and didn’t mind us asking a few questions as well. So easy to chat with and was also a brilliant driver very smooth ride. Commented on points of interest throughout our journey. We had a couple of interesting stops along the way to our destination of Loch Ness! One stop was Culloden the battlefield hauntingly beautiful. Loch Ness for lunch and option of ferry ride on the loch which we did and certainly worth it. Great trip back with a couple of comfort stops. What a wonderful day. Will certainly remember it and definitely recommend. Also great choice of music on the bus Jim. Something for everyone.
