One of the best experiences! - Adam was our tour guide for the day, and not only was he extremely friendly and personable, he provided waters, snacks, and other items to ensure we were taken care of for the day.
We didn’t have luck spotting the coos at first, but Adam was determined to not let us miss that! It was definitely a highlight of our day once we got to see and feed them.
We couldn’t stop laughing on the alpaca tour, and feeding the deer at the deer center was such a fun and sweet way to end the day to our activities!
Adam was kind enough to tailor the day to our wants/needs, so if we wanted to spend a little more time at one spot and a little less at another, it was more than welcomed.
I highly recommend this tour and if you get a chance to go, request Adam! I promise you’ll have a great time and learn a lot about Scottish history along the way!

The Scottish wildlife and weather ^^ - What a fun day out! the kids were amused but the wife clearly enjoyed it the most :D:D. The famous Scottish weather showed up but we made the most of it. We had used this company with another trip around the highlands and they were helpful and they made sure we had a great time!
