A really great and very well organized day trip. We felt we had seen all the highlights of the Highlands. We felt very comfortable with Alistair as our guide, he kept us constantly informed about everything we saw. The castle and the boat trip on Loch Ness had to be paid for in cash(!) on site. Money could be withdrawn from an ATM, but we would have been pleased to have known this in advance.

The Edinburgh Dungeon experience is a must do! Our group absolutely loved it. Each part of the tour is very well executed and planned out. If you like spooky things, this is the experience for you. They make it very interactive and engaging. Highly recommend and very worth the money. Def book in advanced because they do fill up.

I had visited before but it was my daughter's first visit and she was picked as Sweaty Betty - she thoroughly enjoyed this and the Judge was particularly excellent in her role. We had a really enjoyable visit, with staff engagement making us laugh and scream in equal measure. I would certainly return to the Edinburgh Dungeons.

    The dungeons were an okay experience. However more like a history lesson with speach you can't follow along with. I thought there was going to be more jump scares and the ride was also off which I've heard happens on many occasions so a bit of a let down. It's okay to do this experience once however I wouldn't go back. This could've been made a lot better and more fun.

    Superb day out, our guide Shafiq was top notch, I was worried about the number of hours we'd have to drive, but in the end it was a breeze 😊
