Oban, Glencoe & West Highland Castles from Glasgow

Best mixed platter of the highlands

The whole tour was a great mix of information, fun facts and musical inspiration. We enjoyed the tour with Marc and his humour a lot, thanks again.

Breathtaking Experience

Our tour guide was FABULOUS!! he had a bus full of Canadian crackers on board as well. He was so knowledgeable and shared packets of information about the Scottish landscapes throughout the entire journey. 10/10 recommend!

Excellent Highlands Tour from Glasgow!

This was a fantastic tour! our guide and driver, Andrew Forrest was extraordinary. He was funny, factual, and enthusiastic. The tour exceeded our expectations. There were many more stops at sites we did not expect. I highly recommend using this tour service, you will not be disappointed. The tour bus was comfortable, modern and had charging docks for our electronics.

Pick up address

The tour was fabulous Only problem for future tourists is the pick up location It is in a loading bay outside the operatic society, no numbers on the buildings on Killermont Street. It is across the street from Buchanan St Bus Station Tourists get confused and think it’s the first bus stop outside the bus station There are no signs , numbers or directions to indicate where the pick up actually is

Memorable Day Trip from Glasgow

My boyfriend and I went on a great 1-day tour with guide Simba during our weeklong stay in Scotland. We had based our trip around overnight stays in Edinburgh and Glasgow as homebases but we wanted to see outside the cities and their immediate areas, so this tour was an opportunity to see more of Scotland and some of its lochs and highlands. We encountered some road issues traveling to Oban so Simba had to adjust the itinerary and skip that part of the tour, but he was quick to make suggestions and take a poll of the group to adjust based on what we could do and wanted to do. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have a visit outside of the cities into other areas of Scotland. We covered a lot of ground in the 10+ hours on the bus with the schedule adjustment and Simba played Scottish bands and related music along with providing interesting facts along the way. We had various appropriate stops for restroom breaks, photo opportunities, and other tourist needs. The bus was a little cramped and toasty, but all in all it was a memorable day and I am grateful to have seen so much more of Scotland and its beauty! I would definitely recommend Timberbush Tours to others interested in similar journeys.

Great!

Great tour!!! I totally recommend it, as day trip was very interesting, itinerary was beautiful! And Stuart, was very helpful and knowledgeable!

Amazing guide, even better views!

Had an amazing tour with Stevie! Beautiful scenery, great guide! Lovely spots and photo places. The stop in oban was great with many options for lunch!

A good day trip

The tourist guide was excellent. Mark was patient, kind and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend this tour to those wanting to explore the Scottish countryside.

Great tour to Castles, Oban and Glencoe!

Marc was a great tour guide! We saw some beautiful sights on way to the highlands. Would recommend this trip to anyone.

Great trip!

Great day trip into the highlands from Glasgow! Gide was fun and knowledgeable. Scenery just beautiful!

Interesting

The nature of the area was amazing and the little villages are very pleasant and interesting. The driver was very attentive and professional with a lot of knowledge and some suspense in his stories… amazing.

Beautiful, timing was perfect at each stop

What a wonderful special day for our family on this tour. Stuart was simply amazing & took very good care of us. Such stunning crountyside, I highly recommend this tour

Lovely Day in the Highlands

Relaxing day trip through the Highlands region with a great tour guide. Very informative and made stops at a variety of locations for great pictures. Oban was the highlight of the trip though, for sure!

Disaster

Sadly the coach left without us despite our explanation that we were stuck in Glashow traffic and arrived just minutes after it left. Very disappointing and no refund was offered. Never will I recommend your company and will advise all travel agents in Australia of our experience.

The best ghost buster tour

Simba the tour guide is absolutely amazing. His knowledge and confidence on the trip was awesome. His dad like jokes are definitely the selling point. Simba will make sure you get those insta worthy videos and pictures. The views around the towns and villages. The tour bus was small with a capped number

Oban, Glencoe & West Highlands Castles Tour

From start to finish everything was so perfect and made feel so welcome on board! My favourite part of this tour was definitely exploring all that scotland has to offer and the beautiful views🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 my tour Guide Simba was brilliant and he made the tour so much more welcoming and filled us with really useful information and history on places we visited

You won’t regret it, book it now!

You will experience the most stunning views from the nice bus with even nicer driver. The stopovers allowed us to take pictures outdoors of the best views! ✨ Our driver was funny, knowledgeable and looked after us at all times. The trip might feel fast-paced if you’re used to strolling around, but I genuinely think they have the timetables planned perfectly! Our bus was full but it felt like a big family that our driver looked after! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

the whole trip was great...

the whole trip was great and the tour guide done a excellent job whith the history and always telling us about the locations we visited came back whith a lot of knowledge very interesting

The tour was amazing,...

The tour was amazing, beautiful nature.Trip was comfy and the guide Simba was very nice, thanks for him👌

I mean, Scotland in...

I mean, Scotland in autumn is always going to be EVERYTHING but throw in a tour guide, Saint Andrew, that admittedly doesn’t believe in withholding and you laugh raucously at the funniest stories anyone has ever told… AMAZING!… LIFE CHANGING! … I’d like Andrew to one day narrate the story of my life… 100/100 will tell everyone to do this TRIP!

GRAND OLD GREAT!

Andy was great, it takes a talent to drive those roads for sure! I left my blue glasses on the bus, but don't worry about them

Sensational Scenary

The scenary was spectacualr - and unusually the weather was balmy - warm and sunny. The vehicle had phone charging ports and was warm throughout. Large windows for excellent viewing.

Fabulous Tour

“Wee” David was absolutely the best tour guide! He was so intelligent and knowledgeable, like a mini historian, hilariously funny, caring and kind. This was hands down the best tour I’ve taken in Scotland, absolutely fascinating and was quite the adventure in the rain & wind. A seafood lunch in Oban was amazing! Glencoe was so stunning. But, “Wee” David made the whole experience! And I highly recommend Timberbush Tours, they’re the best out of all the companies I’ve toured with. I will absolutely use them for the future.

Oban and castles tour.

Great day, mixture of weather from dry to liquid sunshine. Very friendly and informative tour guide and driver, Robert. Listened to his passengers and engaged them in the tour. A fun and beautiful adventure. Take this tour, and maybe you will have Robbie as your guide!

Scotland at it’s finest

It’s just the most amazing and beautiful country! Simba was fun and informative. This is my 5th tour with TimberTours through Viator and I’ve loved every one!

Excellent

Excellent tour, excellent tour guide Simba who was easy going and very informative he also played awesome music on the bus

Don't miss it

Both travels were Beutifull and interesting and we enjoyed every moment. Really recommended, it will help you not to miss the beauty of Scotland.

Long day but worth it!

Excellent driver and knowledgeable guide. Amenable to making extra stops if requested. 16 seat minibus comfortable if a little cramped for larger person!

A Must Do!

It was a memorable experience. The sights were beautiful and the guide (Wee David) was easy to understand as he shared so much history of the area.

Mesmerising

Very difficult to chose one in particular. All had its own beauty. Our driver Andy was knowledgeable, great sense of humour. The views to the countryside and hill were mesmerising. Unfortunately we couldn't get to the castle, it was closed om Tuesday when we went. Oban is like a world away. The food, OMG , if you like sea food get it there fresh from the sea. You can't beat that. I could carry on but what I would say to others, you need to experience it yourself, you won't regret it.

The tour was excellent...

The tour was excellent from start to finish. Our driver/guide David was very welcoming & accommodating, he also shared his vast knowledge of the area with us. The stopping time at each location was good. I would recommend this tour to anyone

Remarkable

Exploring Loch Lomond and Glencoe area. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Variety of stops. Memorable day.

Great views and beautiful country

Andrew was by and far a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the area and also gave me some suggestions on some of my future travel plans in Scotland later in the week. All and all Oban and Glencoe was a beautiful place and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Excellent small group tours

Our guide was excellent and we as a family enjoyed the trip. The whole trip was well organised, we appreciate the extra effort our guide took to ensure we were directed to a good restaurant for our vegetarian/vegan needs. We highly recommend Timberbush for small group touring. I personally have been on the Timberbush tours on three or four occasions in the past and have found their services very professional and worth the money.

Great time!

Booked this for my mom, sister, and myself, and we had a great time. We commuted from Aberdeen that morning and ran a few mins late, and our guide contacted and waited the few minutes for us. The different locations we visited had rich history and lots of photo and exploration opportunities. Definitely a great day-trip activity.

Must do in Scotland!

Our tour guide, Andrew, was really nice and knowledgeable! He integrated humor in our historical trip. He was kind enough to visit other spots not in the itinerary but we are able to pass. It was quite enjoyable journey. The vehicle is also comfortable. Meet up place is easy to locate! Its more manageable as well since its s small group tour.

Recommend this tour!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour! The guide was personable and helpful. The sights were incredible. The weather was pretty good with periods of sun and rain so we were able to get out of the bus comfortably. Frequent photo stops and plenty of breaks for bathroom and snacks. An hour and a half for lunch in Oban was nice.

Cancelled tour

So disappointed because tge tour was cancelled. Got a missed call with no message. Luckily there were 2 spots on a bus where we waited. Paid more for the orher tour that was cancelled but were not refunded the difference. We specifically wanted to see the west coast but missed out.

Amazing tour of the west highlands!

I had a fantastic time on the 1-day Oban tour with Robert. He was such a great guide, super friendly, kind, and funny, and he knew so much about Scotland to keep us entertained the whole way. We got very lucky with the amazing weather, but even if the weather wasn't as great, the scenery of the highlands would've still been magnificent. I would highly recommend booking a tour with Timberbush, especially this one, if you just want a 1-day taster of what exists beyond the main cities of Scotland! Thank you Robert!

Oban tour, Scotland

The Oban tour was spectacular! Our driver was great fun , we had enough time to stop and take pictures. Loch Lomond was amazing, family ties brought to Scotland! Hoping to go back one day!

Great comprehensive tour

Our tour began on time and was easy to find. We can’t say enough good things about Stevie, our guide. He gave us a great insight into the history of the southern Highlands and had frequent stops for scenic photos. We arrived back in Glasgow after dark having had a wonderful time of fun and fellowship.

Beautiful Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️

It was amazing experience, Scotland so beautiful. Ours driver was very friendly and professional. One trip was cancelled so I didn’t see castles but I wen in different trip so that one also was nice I saw beautiful Scotland landscape

Very personal tour

Our driver Robert was amazing. Beautiful sites, however not enough time. We would have preferred not to go to loch lomond, and spend more time in Inverary.

Amazing

Neil was an awesome driver and told us lots of funny stories on the way. He also gave us enough time during the photo stops a I enjoy taking lots of photos! The tour stops were on point and the coach was comfortable!

Robert very good tour guide

Robert very good tour guide, very knowledgeable, helpful and supportive, I learned from him about Scotland history, Saw son beautiful places in Scotland and took some really good photos 📸 Only disappointment we didn't stop off at Kilchurn Castle for some photos.

Outstanding tour!

Callum was a terrific guide! Wonderful trip! Saw a lot of Scotland!!! Made plenty of stops to sightsee and take pictures and shop. Bathroom breaks were plentiful. Outstanding tour and Callum was awesome!

Loved it!

Loved the tour and our tour guide, Stuart, was great and very interesting! We learned a lot on the tour and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Great tour

Really enjoyed the tour. Robert was a great guide, really informative, and he recommended some amazing fish and chips restaurants in Oban.

Special 1st trip to Scotland!!

Our driver was really great, full of info & history, quite entertaining! Saw fabulous sites; the walk on the “Bonny Bonny banks of Loch Lomond” was special! Thanks!!!

Great trip and fabulous driver.

We had a marvelous trip with the best Driver James who was very knowledgeable, friendly and went out of his way to accommodate everyone on out bus group. I would highly recommend this tour and especially our driver James.
