We have done A LOT of tours, and none compare to our one day tour with Emily! We did the Glencoe, Highlands and Loc Ness tour. PROS: LOVED EMILY - Cant stress enough how nice it was to have a NORMAL tour guide, someone who was down to Earth and not begging for tips the whole time. She was very... More

My parents and I took a day tour around the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland, and had a great experience with Rabbies. The tour itself consisted of about 14 people, which made for a nice, personal experience, and it also was to schedule. The tour guide was very nice and informative, and the vehicle was comfortable. When there was down... More

Our driver/tour guide, Peter, was excellent. He was extremely fun and very knowledgeable. He is also a Harry Potter fan, which is a plus for me as I also like Harry Potter. The trip was extremely relaxing and the little towns and abbeys we visited around Cotswold were amazing. This is my second time to London and just want to... More

Took the 5 day tour of Skye, Mull & Iona. A top trip made all the better by our driver, Ross. By using small coaches, Rabbies limits the group to 15 which allows everyone to mix and to be involved. More

I went on the 2-day Inverness and Loch Ness tour with Mike (May 15 & 16th)! We had a wonderful time. Our group was only 5 people, but still left as planned. I was the only solo traveler but Mike was more than happy to take pictures for me (with me in them!) wherever we went. Since our group was... More

Awesome! Do it, it's worth every penny. We had John as our guide and he was exceptional. Fascinating stories and great music through the whole trip! You'd be doing yourself a dis-service if you traveled to Scotland and didn't book a Rabbies tour. More

our guide taught us about the sex lives of pandas at the Edinburgh zoo, and the difficulties involved in cutting of the head of Mary, Queen of Scots. In case you were wondering, Mary was an innocent girl who meant no harm to Queen Elizabeth. We went to Stirling castle, worth seeing, and up to Loch Lomond. We stopped for... More

Dear Artaficionado Thank you for your review. I am disappointed to hear that you feel your tour wasn't worth the money you paid. Our guides are all passionate about their country and are encouraged to give their own personal slant to their commentary during the tour. We find for most people this makes the tours more engaging but it is... More

The tours are on small buses, about 15 people on each, and the driver is very informative. I took the Rosslyn Chapel and Scottish Borders 1-day tour from Edinburgh and loved every minute of it. Our driver's name was Karen, and though she said she usually does the 2,3, or 5 day tours, she was very knowledgeable and excited to... More
