I absolutely loved every aspect of this trip. Most of the free time add ons were more than worth it and the cities we visited were relevant and fun. I’m glad to chose this option as a way to travel abroad for the first time! The adventures on Lochness were one of my favorites!

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled.
(Even when we got lost)
The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative.
Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities.
Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
