He is a very good driver and knows the hidden gems of the Scottish Highlands. Mark made our trip unforgettable and I‘ll remember his stories and jokes forever. The 4 Day Isle of Skye Tour takes you truly to the best places in the ScottIsh Highlands. The size of the group was not too big; 13 people. I think maximum 16 can fit on the bus. I‘ll definitely recommend the tour and Mark as a driver-guide.”
