Die Tour war sehr stimmungsvoll, aber der starke Akzent des Reiseleiters machte es schwierig, ihr zu folgen. Es wäre hilfreich gewesen, wenn die geplanten Stopps im Voraus bekanntgegeben worden wären. Der Zustand des Zuges ließ zu wünschen übrig, insbesondere die verschmutzten Scheiben / Toiletten!!

Great

Very god guides and fabulous scenery! We could though have used more information about having to drive 4 hours on bus before arriving at the train. This was not clear for us until we sat on the bus. It would have been nice with af map on the website with the bus route, train route and stops.

This tour was better than expected! Our tour guide Karis was exceptional! She ensured that everything went smoothly, was an excellent tour guide, and also our chauffeur for the day. We had plenty of time for several stops, time for pictures, and the very anticipated Jacobite train ride! Worth it!

Very expensive. Only way for us to get train tickets so we paid it. The other tour stops consisted mostly of breaks for the driver. She talked and told some stories about the highlands but really it was a bus ride to the train and back
