Tom

Originally from the Lowlands and having grown up in the city, I never tire of getting out and seeing the Highlands! I have a real passion for sharing stories about Scottish history and the folklore of this country. You will usually find me either up a hill and enjoying the views, or at the bottom enjoying a whisky...it depends on the weather!

Duffy

Passionate friendly Scotsman. Proud to show off this wee Country’s mesmerising landscapes and share tales of ancient folklore and fascinating history. Happiest by a loch or walking through one of Scotland’s majestic glens. Up a mountain, followed by a dram of whisky by the fire is my perfect way to end a day out in Scotland. What a regard is Paradise Bonnie Scotland.

Dougie

As I start my 23rd season as a tour guide with Highland Explorer, I see myself as one of the most fortunate people in Scotland. Sharing the sites and stories from Shetland, to the Scottish Borders is a passion that grows deeper with every tour I have the pleasure in guiding, I hope to share our Scotland with you soon.

Alison

I'm 50% Highlander and 50% Lowlander so that makes me 100% Scottish. Being passionate about Scotland is one thing but sharing that passion with people only makes the heart grow fonder. From sampling our finest whisky, troubled past to following trails to hidden gems, there's something to make everyone to fall in love with in Scotland.

Louise

After spending 6 years following the sun around the world, a dastardly virus brought me home to Bonnie Scotland. Now I'm behind the wheel, showing off some of the best wee spots we have to offer and I can say it rivals some of the wonders of the world. Lowland born, Highland heart.

Rich

The variety in this job in unreal! From the tour choices, to the people, you are pretty much guaranteed something new on every trip. But it’s the sights and locations that are the real biggies, from a stunning sunset over Oban to a dramatic, misty day on Skye.

Stevie

Since joining the team in 2019, I have been proud to be part of Highland Explorer! Every day and tour is a new adventure... I love being able to show off how beautiful and magnificent my home country is!

Iain

My name is Iain and I am passionate about the Highlands and Scotland in general. For me, it's a love affair with the beauty of the landscape, the rich complexity of the history of the lands, over thousands of years, combined with a deep respect for the language, regional dialects and culture of Scotland. It's nice to be able to talk about it and hopefully be entertaining at the same time.

Cara

A lowland lassie with a good mix of Celtic heritage and Irn Bru running through my veins. With spending summers in Ireland and the rest of the year exploring Scotland, the Highlands captured my heart. I love sharing the myths and legends of Scotland that I got told as a wee lass. 

Sophie

Radical Travel’s very own Derry Girls Driver Guide. Passionate about all the beauty of Scotland and its mythical islands. Love meeting new people and welcoming them – regardless of the weather!!

 

Alistair

Hugely passionate about the outdoors, travelling and the natural world. Showcasing Scotland to foreigners and locals is a true privilege and I’m looking forward to sharing a little slice of Scottish paradise! Avid book reader and Puffin lover.

  

Paul

From the Borders, I have a passion for all things Scottish. Everyday is a blessing and there is nowhere else I’d rather be doing than travelling around god’s country, eating haggis and shortbread, and drinking Irn Bru.

A keen travel and mountain Guide who loves to explore new areas and adventures around Scotland. I love to tell stories of the landscape and history of Scotland.

Harrison

An Englishman that got lost in the Highlands and fell in love with Scotland. This incredible land has everything from breath-taking landscapes, enthralling history, and wonderfully friendly people. I love helping people explore this magical country, learning new folklore tales and trying new whisky.

Stewart

Born and raised in Nairn just outside Inverness, with a love for driving as deep as Loch Ness and a passion for sharing Scotland's hidden treasures, I am your go-to companion for unforgettable adventures. Buckle up and let me show you the Scotland only the locals know!

Amber

A Moray born and raised girl, often found on a windswept hill or one of Scotland's incredible beaches. I'm thrilled that I get to adventure around the highlands all day as a guide. Can't wait for a busy summer of sharing the fun with lots of travellers!

Born and raised a Highlander, I’m proud to be Scottish. Incredible history, bens, and glens, and you can’t forget our whiskies! Scotland has it all and I can’t wait to meet you and welcome you to my magnificent country.
