We ended up with audio guides that didn't work so from the start we said to ourselves: it's going to be complicated, that's it! However, we didn't give up and downloaded the mp3 version on our phone (you have everything you need on the bus -USB ports- to charge your devices so there's no risk of ending up without a battery). However, mission n°2: manage to understand where you were in order to listen to the corresponding audio file. Laborious! luckily we were in a good mood and decided to laugh about it. We had the story and the pictures; surely not in a good way every time, but whatever. We were lucky to have Rich, our driver/guide for the day, with us. Funny and kind, he was able to put us at ease and make himself understood during our discussions! The +: alternating between Scottish music and good rock! The stops are short but multiple and necessary for 500kms in 12 hours. Go!

A long journey but it was worth it. You have the opportunity to admire very characteristic small villages in which you also stop. In addition, the famous Highlanders are crossed: a real show. In the packed lunch offered, in addition to the sandwich, I would recommend supplying a few bottles of water instead of chips.

We had a great day in the Highlands. Our tour guide / driver was very knowledgeable and outgoing, he shared interesting tips about sightseeing in Scotland and Edinburgh and we used them even after the trip. The trip itself was fairly well organised, although the stops are rather short and there isn’t much time for shopping or ordering food. I was a bit disappointed with the Loch Ness cruise, so I’d rather skip it and spend the time roaming around Fort Augustus and getting fish and chips. The lunch provided was tasty, but more of a snack than actual meal. It helps you save time if you get on the cruise, though. Remember that hot food is not allowed to take on the boat. The best part of the trip we’re the views and the photo stop near Glencoe.
