Highland Experience Tours is a Glasgow-based tour operator offering day trips and multi-day adventures across the Scottish Highlands and islands.
The company operates departures from Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness and runs curated itineraries that visit signature landmarks including the Isle of Skye, Eilean Donan Castle, Loch Ness, Glen Coe, the Jacobite Steam Train and historic sites such as Stirling Castle and Rosslyn Chapel. Guests can choose from one-day options — for example Skye day trips and Loch Ness discoveries — up to extended experiences including three-day and eight-day journeys that explore Skye, the Hebrides, Orkney and the far north. Tours combine scenic driving routes, guided commentary and scheduled stops for photography, walks and local meals in towns like Portree and Oban. Private tour options are available for custom itineraries.
Highland Experience Tours lists a variety of themed departures: whisky and distillery visits, Outlander-related sites, Jacobite train excursions and coastal fishing villages such as St Andrews and Falkland. The operator's itineraries include well-known travel highlights such as the Glenfinnan Viaduct, Sligachan Bridge, Loch Lomond and the Kelpies. This range of trips suits travelers seeking flexible pacing from small-group discoveries to longer, immersive Highland itineraries.
