As you can see by the photograph of myself these mountains are my front garden in the beautiful village of Lochcarron Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands close to the famous Applecross peninsular. I became a tour guide about twelve years ago because of my love of the highlands, its history and its beautiful scenery. I have been organising tours for clients arriving at Invergordon Ullapool and Portree by cruise liner also staying at the many quality hotels such as the Torridon Hotel nestling in the majestic Torridon mountains Bespoke tours have been arranged to places as varied as Loch Ness, Cawdor Castle, Isle of Skye, Applecross, Dunrobin Castle. and Speyside Whisky Tours My informal friendly style has given me 5 star ratings with all my clients as I always try to make sure that they have a memorable day. The vehicle that I use is a Ford Transit minibus with air conditioning and comfortable seating for eight passengers I also use a microphone linked to the sound system if required. I have installed a covid screen in the vehicle and the minibus is sanitised before before every tour for your safety. I am fully licensed by the local Highland Council and also fully insured. I do not accompany you inside castles distillery etc but will give you an insight as to what to look out for and give directions to entry points

John helped us plan a great day in the Scottish Highlands, catering to our specific requests and offering suggestions to complement the itinerary. He shared his wealth of knowledge as we traveled to our different destinations and answered any questions we threw at him. We highly recommend his services for any visit to this beautiful area.

John was an outstanding guide. We had an amazing time, and he even took time to get to know our family, make an itinerary change suggestion, and that change was the highlight of our tour. He was great with our kids and was helpful with my mobility needs. All in all, it was a wonderful day and we'd love to spend another day with John!

We contacted John months ago for a customized tour of the Invergordon area (Loch Ness and Inverness) from our cruise ship. We mess as ged back and forth until we had an itinerary we were happy with. He was waiting for us when we arrived. He has a microphone connected to his vehicle so all 8 of us could hear what he was saying as we went about the tour. He stopped and showed us what we wanted as well as a couple of bonuses due to his knowledge of the area. Highly recommend!
