Born and raised in the Scottish Highlands. I am ex-corporate and love my Guiding Life. If you want to have a certified tourist guide, a fun day with true facts from a native of the Highlands, then look no further. You will be driven in my Luxury December 2025 Mercedes 300D Exclusive XL with leather seats, privacy glass & air-con with seats for up to 6 passengers, and lots of Luggage space. Educated to post-graduate level. 14 years as a Buying and Commercial Director in 6 different countries, having visited over 50 countries, I have developed an admiration for different cultures and ways of life. My wife and our 3 children decided it was time to return home to the Scottish Highlands and follow our hearts. We have made our home in Nairn, close to Inverness airport, Whisky Distilleries, Culloden, Castles, Standing Stones, Golf Courses, gorgeous beaches and the most amazing scenery. I am passionate about the Scottish Highlands, and would love to show you the best of the area, share some stories, explain the history, give you a flavour of life in the Highlands today and help to make your vacation a fun, interesting, memorable one. I am a qualified guide and a member of both the Scottish Tour Guides Association (STGA) and the Highlands of Scotland Tour Guide Association (HOSTGA). Full indemnity insured and public liability for carrying up to 6 passengers. 8 years of Guiding experience. Scotch Whisky Course Certificate.

Overview of your Inverness tour
Get collected from your accommodation in my luxury Mercedes V-Class 300 Exclusive (December 2025) for up to 6 guests. A panoramic tour of Inverness, the Capital of The Highlands. Journey to Culloden Battlefield to re-live the final Jacobite uprising of 1746, then a short drive to the 4000 year old Clava Cairns burial chambers and standing stones. Next stop is Cawdor Castle (April-September) or Brodie Castle, steeped in history and intrigue, with magnificent gardens and great cafe's!
