Scotland Private Tours

A private tour with Tour Guide Scotland is one of the best ways to experience the country’s history, culture, and natural beauty without rushing, without crowds, and without a one-size-fits-all itinerary. Because every tour is tailored to you, you can travel at a comfortable pace, spend longer where you’re genuinely interested, and skip the stops that don’t excite you. It’s Scotland done properly: personal, flexible, and thoughtfully planned from start to finish.

We offer a wide selection of ready-made private tours of Scotland, and we’re equally happy to design a bespoke itinerary built around what matters most to you. That might mean exploring iconic highlights such as Edinburgh, Stirling Castle, Glencoe, and Culloden, enjoying a whisky experience in Speyside, heading west to the Isle of Skye, or discovering quieter corners and local favourites you’d likely miss on your own. Whether you’re visiting for a day, a week, or longer, we can create a touring plan that fits your timeframe and travel style.

With your own knowledgeable Scottish guide, you’ll gain more than directions and photo stops; you’ll hear the stories behind the landscapes, the history behind the castles, and the legends that bring each place to life. We also offer special interest tours, including Scottish genealogy and ancestry tours for tracing your roots, and themed experiences such as Outlander tours, tailored to your level of enthusiasm (from “curious” to “fully committed”).

Wherever you’re arriving from, cruise ship, train, or airport, we can arrange private pick-up from a location that suits you, then travel in comfort with only your chosen companions. No strangers, no group schedules, just your own private vehicle, your own guide, and an experience shaped around you.

From first planning to the final stop, our aim is simple: to help you see Scotland in a way that feels relaxed, personal, and genuinely memorable.
