A Family-Owned Scottish Tour Company Since 2005
Highland Experience Tours was founded in 2005 with a simple ambition: to share Scotland with authenticity, integrity and local expertise.
As an independent, family-owned Scottish tour company, we have spent over 20 years designing and refining exceptional Scotland tours that showcase both the iconic highlights and the lesser-known corners of our country.
Thoughtfully Designed Scotland Tours
From Highland tours and Isle of Skye adventures to multi-day journeys through the Scottish Highlands and Islands, our itineraries are carefully planned to balance world-famous landmarks with hidden gems.
We believe travel should feel immersive, not rushed — combining dramatic landscapes, rich history and meaningful local experiences into journeys that stay with you long after you return home.
Travel at Every Scale
We offer private tours of Scotland, small group tours of up to 16 passengers, and larger coach tours designed for comfort and efficiency.
No matter the format, every Highland Experience tour is delivered with the same care, professionalism and attention to detail that has defined our company since day one.
Explore Scotland With Confidence
For more than two decades, travellers from around the world have trusted us to deliver expertly run Scotland tours from Edinburgh and beyond.
When you travel with Highland Experience Tours, you are choosing a company rooted in Scotland — committed to sharing it properly.

Committed to Responsible Tourism
Sustainability is at the heart of Highland Experience Tours. We actively support initiatives such as Trees for Life, helping restore Scotland’s native Caledonian forests.
Travelling together on a guided Scotland tour reduces environmental impact while supporting local communities across the Highlands and Islands. For us, responsible travel is not an add-on, it is how we do everything.
