Panda Cross (above, left). Front seat 19" (48 cm) wide, rear bench seat 48" (122 cm) wide armrest-to-armrest, 42" (107 cm) wide sitting area. Carries 3-medium sized people in comfort, or 2 bigger people - the man in the front seat in picture is 6'2" tall and has plenty leg- and headroom.
Price for 5-hour tour: £ 150; for 9-hour tour £ 245. Prices are a guide, will be lower November-March and may be higher July & August.
The Panda Cross stays at our base so early departures or late returns do not significantly affect the price - see note below, Vectra.
Vectra (above, right). Carries 3 large, tall people in comfort, 1 in front and 2 in rear. Rear bench seat is 54" (137 cm) wide allowing 18" of width for each passenger when 3 are carried (4 passengers in total) and has seat belts for all 3.
Price for 5-hour tour: £ 195; for 9-hour tour £ 320. Prices are a guide, may be higher July & August.
The Vectra (or similar sized car) is hired in from a local agency. Consequently if your tour starts very early or finishes very late the agency may class this as a 2-day hire, increasing the price.
Mercedes-Benz 515cdi Sprinter - 16 seats. This is the main vehicle used for our scheduled tours but is available on many days for private hire. It is also available for extended tours. Prices on application.
As noted, this vehicle carries 16. If your group all wish window seats then restrict numbers to 10.
Guided trips - your guide (usually also your driver) interprets the route as you go. Most of our guides have wide interests. During your tour they cover the social, political, and natural histories (including basic geology) of your route; prehistory - our area is rich in Neolithic, early Bronze Age, and Pictish sites; and the general situation of our area - the economy, transport links and so on.
Please tell us your requirements and we will give you a quotation.
We also do multi-day trips.
If you do not know your exact route and need help with itinerary
design we will normally give you, gratis, one or two e-mails with suggestions.
After that fees apply for help with itinerary development. Most of our scheduled
tours are available on almost any day of the year as
private tours, at the prices noted below. Private tours are also available for larger groups, prices on application.
The guides. We are, to our knowledge, the only guiding-with-transport service in the Highlands whose guides are all university graduates or have completed the HOSTGA guiding course or in some cases, both.
Days of operation. As stated in the introduction, private tours are available almost any day of the year, with the following provisos:
