Hi, my name is Carole and I have been involved with tours and excursions for 5 years now. I have lived in Scotland all my life and Inverness for the last 25 years. I probably have one of the best jobs in the world meeting all you wonderful people from all around the globe. My passions are the Highlands of Scotland and Isle of Skye, and whether it's battlefields or castles, stunning landscapes, whisky, lochs or Nessie hunting, you can tour and cover them all. I aim to take your wish list of locations and help you turn them into a meaningful, memorable and magical experience. From the Speyside and Highland whisky trails, with many beautiful distilleries for your consideration and enjoyment and a taste experience that can't be rivaled, or perhaps a walking adventure in our magical countryside and wildlife of our glens, rest assured I know how to excite your imagination and expectations on a guided personal tour of our stunning country and its history. My experience and knowledge of history, myths and locations can help provide you with some great ideas for your tours. You will be transported in comfort and style in my immaculately presented Mercedes GLC 4x4 which gives a panoramic unclouded view of our stunning scenery. We could arrange pick up from your chosen location whether it's a hotel, house, port, train station or ferry, which will ensure that before, during and after the tour, your day will be undisturbed, memorable and talked about for years to come. Tours can be full or half days and start/finish times can be flexible to suit your needs on the day. I can do repositioning tours, maybe you fancy starting in Inverness and ending in Edinburgh or vice versa with scenic stops along the way. I can also offer multi day tours anywhere around Scotland. Just message me and we can sort out the best places to visit. If you are happy with three in the back I am happy to take four people 20 years experience as a professional driver. 5 years experience as a tour guide. None.

Overview of your Inverness tour

From an agreed location we shall head down Loch Ness to Dores Beach to see the Nessie Hunter and perhaps Nessie herself! Spectacular views of Loch Ness at this spot Then we travel down past the loch to Fort Augustus and marvel at the canal designed and built in the 1800s by Thomas Telford , plus it's a great wee village on the banks of Loch Ness . Then onto Invermoriston to get some great pictures from the Summer House overlooking Morriston Falls Onto Drumnadrochit and a stop for pictures of Urquhart Castle which was destroyed by the Government in 1692 to prevent the Jacobites gaining a stronghold there. A stop here for coffee and find out about Nessie’s history. Then time for some pictures with the Highland Cows.

We asked for a lot of things that are not on the usual tour. Carole really came through! With her local knowledge and contacts it was a wonderful day that we will never forget!

What a wonderful day in Scotland with Carole! She was a wonderful guide with fantastic local knowledge. I learned a lot, saw the amazing countryside and had an amazing day with her. She was able to customize the trip to make a stop somewhere I had wanted to see, and truly made it a wonderful day.
