Guide #21456
I was born and brought up in the little village of Elgol on the Isle of Skye and love to share my passion for and knowledge of my native island with others. Having studied Gaelic and Communications at Scotland's 'National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture', Sabhal Mor Ostaig, I went on to work with my parents as a tour guide and skipper on their world-renowned boat trips based on Skye. During that time I made various appearances on television and radio to talk about the area, as well as hosting my own weekly show on the local Skye-based radio station, Radio Skye. In 2013 I suffered a serious knee injury which put an end to my sea-going tourism career (as well as giving me a welcome excuse to never take up marathon running!). This led me to question, "what next?" and in 2016 I was delighted to be able to return to tourism offering luxury tours of the Isle of Skye. All my tours offer a taste of luxury as I chauffeur you around the Scottish Highlands in my Land Rover Discovery, which can accommodate groups of up to 7 people. I look forward to welcoming you to the most beautiful part of the world! I have spent more than 10 years working as a tour guide based on the Isle of Skye. I have several reviews on TripAdvisor which can be viewed at https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attraction_Review-g551872-d10522382-Reviews-Skye_Local_Tours-Broadford_Isle_of_Skye_The_Hebrides_Scotland.html Due to an old knee injury I am unable to accompany guests on more difficult walks they may wish to do during the tour (For example Fairy Pools or climb to the Old Man of Storr).

My wife and I visited the Isle of Skye in late September 2026. We engaged Stuart to give us a one-day tour. Stuart is a wonderful tour guide. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We highly recommend Stuart and would absolutely use him again when we are in Skye next!

Stuart was a local fellow with a strong background in the culture, history and landscape of the Isle of Skye. It was like an old friend taking you around to appreciate and understand the history of his people and land. An enjoyable day, with flexibility and emphasis on our interests, questions and specific sites. A good day.

Stuart was delightful and catered to every need during our day together. He is as local as they come, his ancestors have lived on the isle for over 600 years. It was so interesting to learn about Skye from someone who grew up there. Stuart told some great stories and shared all the best views of his home. We will definitely recommend him to all family and friends that...
