Did not get to all the sites promised

Guide spend so much time at the first stop (Castle) and could not get all the travelers back on the bus. Due to the delay we could not get to the Carnegie Whisky tasting and the Loch Ness stop was only 10 minutes. Poor time management on the guides part.
Response from Host , Oct 2019
Hi
I’m rather confused as the venues you’ve mentioned are in different tours. The Carnegie whisky tasting is on Tour 1 but you’ve stated you went to Loch Ness which is Tour 2.
The two tours are in different parts of the Highlands. I’m wondering if you were on a Thistle tour at all. I’m going to ask Trip Advisor to investigate as we do not do a tour that incorporates what you wrote.
Confused! Wonder if you are too? Please explain.

Wonderful tour

We enjoyed the tour. Only complaint is about the communication of the starting time. We failed to receive the text message about the starting time and ended up having to wait for the bus for one and half hour. They should let us know how they are going tom inform us the starting time. Better yet, why not starting the tour half hour after the cruise ship starts letting passengers get off the ship. This is what the tours of other ports did.
Response from Host , Aug 2019
Every passenger is notified by email or message on Viator or Trip Advisor. We cannot make you read it and don’t know if you do read it unless you choose to reply which you did not. Every person receives this when they book. We do not send out text messages ever. This is just impossible with so many passengers. If you waited 1.5 hours you must have arrived very early. You were probably agitated that we couldn’t leave until the allotted time that we were scheduled to leave. Of course we need to wait for people who are coming at the correct time not very very early. You would want us to wait for you! We cannot change starting times according to when the ships dock as they come early or late. We must have a fixed time. The other ports you refer to are the ships’ own tours which bring all the coaches next to the ship then pull along side. We are in competition to the ships’ tours so are not allowed near the ships or into the dock. It would be fantastic if we were. So we have allotted times to leave. We don’t mind people coming early but just because you’re early we can’t leave without all of our passengers. I’m sure you understand that. Thank you for the 4 stars though nevertheless.

This tour was the best on our cruise! We drove past Loch Ness. Having read the Outlander series, I was thrilled to see Culloden and the
standing stones. Cawdor Castle was great. Our tour
guide was exceptional - so informative and interesting. The price was surprisingly low for the quality!!
guide was exceptional. She was so well informed and interesting.

I learned so much about the Scottish Highlands. Tour guide was amazingly prepared and connected the past history with present day Scotland. Very easy to locate your guide right at the port. I thought I got the Baku for my money.

Leuke toer, goede uitleg, veel gezien van de Schotse hooglanden, in een paar uur mooie indruk gekregen van Schotland. Jammer dat je Iverness niet aandoet.

Es en inglés.
Es como si contratas un traslado con un conductor (guía) quién se encarga de llevarte de un lado a otro. Por el camino te cuenta aspectos sobre lo que vas a ver. Luego, te dejan en cada punto de interés y te deba tiempo para visitarlo por tu cuenta.
Response from Host , Jul 2019
Translation: It's in english. It is as if you hire a transfer with a driver (guide) who is responsible for taking you from one place to another. Along the way he tells you aspects about what you are going to see. Then, they leave you at every point of interest and I give you time to visit it on your own.
Thank you for an explanation of our tours in Spanish. I’m sorry we don’t do the commentary in Spanish but we have mostly English or German speaking passengers. If we did it in Spanish then the others would not understand.
We tell you about the places and the bits in between but we do not accompany you at your locations as we don’t think you want to stay altogether in a crowd with people you don’t know. We think you want to go off on your own and explore. I’m disappointed that you felt because of this you could only give us 3 stars but I guess we cannot please every single person. Thank you so much for bringing your group on our tour though. Again sorry we cannot do the tour in Spanish.
