“We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide than Andrew. His stories were engaging and it was wonderful hearing all his tales. He made Scotland even more magical than it already is (if that’s even possible!)”

“He captivated us with stories, history, and all the legends associated with Skye and the surrounding area. With multiple cliffhangers and his charm, we found ourselves just as eager to see the sights as we were to return to the bus to hear him continue with his stories.”

Licensed to drive virtually any vehicle on the road and with a decade of life in Australia under his belt, Ross brings a wonderfully broad perspective to the ancient landscapes and stories of the country he loves. In his own words: "Alba gu Bràth."

“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! We took a Highland tour with Ross. He was a top-notch guide. Hard to imagine anyone being better! The quality of his narration, story telling, driving, and historical knowledge were superb. The quality and condition of the coach and intercom system was very nice too. We covered a lot of interesting sites and learned much about the Scottish Highlands and have gained much respect for the heritage of the fine people there
