The tour was interesting,- scenic wild Scotland and very few tourists.
One thing I really didn’t like: when I booked the tour I was told the seats can’t be reserved in advance. Sometimes I feel motion sickness sitting at the rear so I was one of the first who came to the bus. However, Richard the guide did not allow me to sit in the front saying these seats were reserved. Very unfair and not customer friendly
