Hi, I’m Emma, a professional tour guide based in the North Highlands of Scotland, operating from Invergordon to Inverness and beyond. I can cover the entire North Coast 500 including the Isle of Skye and I can offer extended tours tailored to your interests. I’m passionate about travel, Scotland’s rich heritage, culture, folklore, and wildlife, I love sharing the magic of this stunning region with visitors. Traveling in style and comfort, I provide private tours in my luxury Mercedes Viano, which seats up to seven passengers. I specialize in food and drink experiences, whisky and gin tours, Outlander-inspired adventures, and breathtaking panoramic tours of Loch Ness and local castles. If you’re looking for something unique or off the beaten path, I’m more than happy to create a bespoke itinerary just for you. I also speak a little French and German, thanks to my school studies, and always strive to ensure my guests have an unforgettable, comfortable, and enriching experience. Let’s explore the Highlands of Scotland together!
