Timberbush Tours are fabulous
Timberbush Tours are fabulous Charline was so patient with me and answered all my many questions over the 3 months of preplanning - thank you We had a perfect Highlands Tour and driver tour-guide Paul Three generations me daughter granddaughter went to UK to celebrate HS graduation first time out of US too We splurged and had a one-day private tour with Paul sooo worth the cost We didn t want to do the typical Lock Ness tour I m sure it s beautiful too though counter-clockwise bus tours where we figured it would be more crowded with tourists Instead we went clockwise and saw magnificent Locks castles small villages etc Because we had a private tour we didn t have to worry about missing the bus and we could adjust based on a whim being accepting spending time somewhere would reduce time elsewhere Paul coordinated with front office to adjust tours reservations we had along the way so we didn t have to Paul even made an unscheduled bathroom break - very much appreciated Went with a handy lightweight hooded raincoat for occasional drizzles - didn t take away from spectacular views tours at all Beautiful country extremely knowledgeable humorous tour guide and great food at Samphire Seafood Restaurant book ahead You just have to be accepting when you travel great distances in one day stops are quick - go figure just roll with it - If you want to spend more time I would recommend doing multiple day trips and stay in town s village s you re focused on touring Our thanks go out to everyone at Timberbush Tours and the businesses along the way for making that day fantastic P S We flew from LAX to Heathrow and took connecting flight to Edinburgh TAKE THE TRAIN FROM LONDON TO EDINBURGH - not a connecting flight or take a backup carry-on Most of the people on the connecting flight did not have their luggage arrive when they did We all had to fill out missing luggage forms which weren t going to be processed for another 3 days - maybe and no currier There was a room full of luggage from other flights just piling up there and no one was moving them along You CAN T go back into luggage area if you leave no food drinks - but at least there s bathrooms down there Luckily my daughter used to work at an airline and knew to stick around - after 4 more flights our luggage arrived She also found ONE fabulous employee that knew what she was doing and told my daughter which flight our luggage was on It would have taken AT LEAST 3 DAYS to get our luggage We wouldn t have seen our luggage because we were off to London in 3 days We would have had to spend days shopping for clothing shoes makeup incidentals etc - instead of seeing the sights

Amazing experience with Timberbush Tours
Amazing experience with Timberbush Tours twenty days ago Three dream days in the Highlands and Isle of Skye in a 16-seater van led by Jada an expert enthusiastic and passionate guide always ready and available to explore our curiosities about history and places and attentive to the needs of the group In my opinion the organization was perfect Jada made sure that all the stops were significant and paced the times in such a way as to let us enjoy the moment without rushing and without doing the classic hit and run that happen in organized tours Even though my English is very rusty Jada was able to make everything more than effortlessly understandable thanks to her natural empathy I will definitely be traveling with Timberbush Tours hopefully back to Scotland or maybe Ireland soon timberbushtours timberbushtoursFavolosa esperienza con Timberbush Tours venti giorni fa Tre giorni da sogno nelle Highlands e Isola di Skye in un van da 16 posti guidati da Jada guida esperta entusiasta e appassionata sempre pronta e disponibile ad approfondire le nostre curiosit sulla storia e sui luoghi e attenta alle esigenze del gruppo L organizzazione stata a mio avviso perfetta Jada ha fatto in modo che tutte le soste fossero significative e cadenzato i tempi in modo tale da farci godere il momento senza fretta e senza fare le classiche toccata-e-fuga che capitano nei tour organizzati Nonostante il mio inglese sia molto arrugginito Jada ha saputo rendere tutto pi che comprensibile senza sforzo grazie alla sua naturale empatia Viagger senz altro con Timberbush Tours spero presto di nuovo in Scozia o magari in Irlanda timberbushtours timberbushtours

Loch Ness Glencoe Scottish Highlands AMAZING tour
Took Loch Ness Glencoe Scottish Highlands Tour in Apr 24 leaving from Edinburgh My tour bus driver main guide was Stevie and his counterpart was Lorna They were both very informative over a 13-hour day while we traveled into the highlands This tour is a MUST DO when visiting Scotland About half the time was driving but was broken up by comfort stops photo stops ice cream stops etc Both guides were very respectful of needing fresh air coffee and a restroom We visited the mountains in Glencoe Inverness Loch Ness and several other small towns on the drive up and back I added an additional tour of Urquhart Castle which are ruins right along Loch Ness making for phenomenal dramatic photos the only thing missing was Nessie Afternoon ended with a boat ride along the Loch Ness before heading back to Edinburgh 5-stars to Stevie and Lorna for putting up with literally 42 people shuffling on and off the bus and entertaining us throughout the trip Great tour company Timberbush Tours and brand new comfortable bus with USB ports One small complaint that we didn t get close up pics of the furry Highlands cows for us crazy tourists consider stopping so we can take memorable pics HIGHLY recommend this tour and guides

A Must Do to Really See Scotland
We did 2 tours 1 Loch Ness Glencoe and The Highlands with Gary 5 212 Loch Lomond Stirling Castle and the Kelpies with John 5 22The ride was comfortable and included enough bathroom and stretching stops along the way The lunch spots are basic The tour guides were both very informative and knowable about the sites and went above and beyond with answering unrelated questions to the tour Gary is quite the historian and gave us lots of great information about our ancestry The tour guide John on our second tour really had the guests going and cheering along the way He s an excellent driver when we were diverted for a road closure he handled an alternate route with a very narrow winding road with great skill He also pointed our many things beyond the tour description and was very authentic
