Overview

Our Private West Coast, Walking and Waterfalls tour is a unique blend of history, unbelievable scenery and remarkable geological sites! It takes you up the rugged and remote West Coast of the Highlands. As many Highlanders say "west really is best!"

This Highland tour is not available anywhere else and will leave you mesmerised by Scotland's beauty, landscape and legends.

Don't expect to be stuck in a vehicle the whole time as each stop gives you adequate time to stretch your legs, explore, and immerse yourself in each remarkable site! We highly recommend this tour for those seeking something different that will create memories that last a lifetime!

While we travel between stops you will be entertained with the history of Scotland, geological information, Scottish music, snacks, drinks and of course good old Scottish Craic!
