Loch Lomond: Scottish Highlands Sightseeing Cruise

2.Scottish Highlands Sightseeing Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 1,953 reviews · 1 hour · from $26

Cruise Loch Lomond for one hour with Ben Lomond views, live history commentary, Highland scenery, a bar, and easy access from Balloch.

“Rather expensive for an hour ride. Perhaps consider a discount when the party is quite large. Was a splendid cruise. Always peaceful out on the water. The option of sitting under cover with full visibility was an extra bonus. The bar facilities was great. Perhaps consider having some sandwiches iso just a choice of 2 sweet biscuits. We were a party of 17 with young adults whom get very hungry all the time and we were celebrating a 50th birthday. Your ad did say eats available for purchase (bring cash) so we brought no snacks with. Staff were friendly and helpful.”

“10,000 out of 10! Michelle made this tour just absolutely incredible! She was so knowledgeable and thought of every little detail from a sample nip of Scotch whiskey to the Scottish flag for photos. She gave us picturesque views of places we didn’t expect to see and little cakes we may not have tried otherwise plus so much more. She had plenty of recommendations in the towns and just went above and beyond in every way. She was warm and welcoming, the ride was smooth and fun, the sights were just gorgeous. I cannot recommend this trip and MICHELLE enough! She provided water and little candies for the ride, offered…”

From the majestic Doune and Kilchurn castles to the quaint villages of Loch Lomond and Inveraray, it was a very memorable day. Steve was a great guide - with historical information and great stories and good music. He explained things very well. I would highly recommend this trip and Steve!”

Review of the Loch Lomond, Kelpies, Trossachs, and optional Stirling Castle day trip from Edinburgh, with practical tips on time and value.

“Unfortunately it was the most boring tour I've ever attended. Sounds better than the reality It was very uncomfortable that the guide is a driver at the same time. While driving the car, the driver cannot concentrate on landscapes and tell a story. The guide should be in love with the places to which he brings tourists. So that the tourists want to return again and again. It' s my subjective opinion. But for the sake of fairness, it must be said that the views were amazing. We enjoyed Sterling Castle and Loch Lomond.”
