Bill
I enjoy sharing Scotland's story with visitors from all over the world. Their reactions and their stories make everyday different. I have studied Ecology and have worked in environmental education for some years. But my real interest is Scotland, its history, its legends and its culture. I have been guiding on Skye and throughout the highlands for 13 years. |
Murray
Seeing my country through the eyes of visitors and presenting the stunning landscapes and wonderful stories of Skye to my fellow world travellers, is quite simply the greatest pleasure I know. I am an amateur crofter, storyteller & human, an island enthusiast and I extend a warm welcome to you in my home. |
Nory
Nory is a natural storyteller. Working for much of his career in business, he has turned from sealing deals to sharing Scotland with visitors from around the world. He is a enthusiastic amateur historian and an excellent host. Winters are spent delivering his own special brand of tours at Heartland Travel and his summers working with Real Scottish Journeys guiding our Classic Skye and Inverness tour. Many say that you will never meet a happier man. |

About accommodation
All our tour prices do not include any accommodation costs. This allows you to choose the type of accommodation that best suits you. We recommend great value award winning hostels and cosy B&B’s that are locally owned and run. For your evening meal, we will direct you to the nearest pub or restaurant. If you are self catering in a hostel, there will be plenty of opportunity to buy food. |
Our commitment to the environment
Tourism is important to the highland economy. We think it is important that the money that you spend stays local. We always try to support locally owned and run shops hostels pubs restaurants and B&B’s. This helps sustain small communities in the Highlands. By touring as group this also helps to reduce the number of vehicles on the road and carbon emissions. We try to minimise the amount of written material that we produce and recycle when possible. |
