Written by the company

Rabbie’s small group tours are driven by curiosity and guided by storytellers. We find the stories that go deeper and live longer in travellers' minds. On our journeys, everyone’s hungry for the little-known or just-happened, and we can go after them: no track too small, too trodden or obscure. No need for scripts, because our guides know places like the back of their hand.

Had a great tour today to the Kelpies

Had a great tour today to the Kelpies, Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle with our tour guide, Jim Scot.
He was engaging and knowledgeable about the sites we visited and their history. He shared some of his amazing photography with us. He also gave out many recommendations for other sites to visit, places to eat and whiskeys to try!
Overall a fantastic experience.
Thank you Jim Scot!

Excellent guides and driver Chass

Excellent guides and driver Chass. The town of Dunkeld was delightful, we ended upp having coffee and buying books at the Church fundraising. Beautiful walk in Cairngorm nationalpark. We would have preferred a stop at a ruin of an abbey or a castle and heard a story or two about it instead of going to yet another village on the way back. Particularly since most shops were closed anyway at that time of the day. We passed a ruin on the way that looked really interesting. So that's a suggestion for a wee change of route.

Stonehenge & Cotswald

We took a one day tour of Stonehenge and Cotswald leaving from Bath. The driver/guide, Euan, was friendly and knowledgeable. There was enough time to explore each sight and he pointed out interesting things along the ride.

9 hr Loch Lomond & Stirling Castle

My husband and I did the 9 hr Loch Lomond and Stirling Castle tour today out of Edinburgh. Tour was great despite the Scottish weather and that was thanks to Jim, our amazing guide. He educated us but kept us entertained and engaged at the same time. Would highly recommend this tour and especially Jim.

Excellent Isle of Skye Tour

My husband and I took a 3 day tour of the Isle of Skye starting on May 7,2026. It was our first experience with Rabbie's tours and we were very impressed. Our driver Simon was great. We learned so much more about Scotland's history, culture, and people than we would on other tours. Simon went out of his way to ask what we were interested in seeing and I was thrilled when I asked to see Dunvegan Castle and he agreed. I would definitely recommend this tour and the next time I am in the United Kingdom, I will take another tour with Rabbie's.

Fantastic tour

Fantastic tour! We loved everything: the beautiful locations, the perfect amount of time for each attraction, the guide Jamie was super friendly and enriched the tour with his historical narration, always in good humor. It was unforgettable for us!

I will only tour with Rabbie’s

I will only tour with Rabbie’s. On larger tour busses it feels like you swarm these little towns with people and a simple stop for coffee or restroom takes forever. With Rabbie’s, our tour can be so flexible because the groups are small and simple things like boarding are so much faster. It gives you more time for sightseeing and castle visits.

The tour was exactly what I was hoping…

The tour was exactly what I was hoping for. Our driver Ewen was fantastic! We did the Outlander tour with him. He had knowledge of the show, played the music from the show, and shared so much of Scotland's history with us. I highly recommend him as well as Rabbies! This is the only tour company I will be using!

Cotswolds/Oxford Tour

I really enjoyed my tour to the Cotswolds & Oxford! Our guide, Aileen, was so kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. We got to see a lot and it didn't feel super rushed. I would highly recommend Rabbie's and this tour!

The tour was spectacular

The tour was spectacular! Lyn was a superb guide; her knowledge of the history and geology of Scotland was exceptional. She also had a great sense of humour and played music along the way, which she had chosen specially for its significance.
