Rowan and Andy Mackie have always been passionate about travel, working in Europe and the US before leaving the corporate world behind to build a successful tourism business in Tuscany. The brothers never forgot their roots though, and they always dreamed of using their knowledge and passion to create a world-class tour operator in Scotland.
Highland Private Tours is the realisation of that dream. With a wealth of local knowledge, an extensive network of connections throughout the Scottish tourism industry, and a passion for their homeland and its many hidden wonders, Highland Private Tours blends Scottish charm and character with a professionalism and high-end service to create a fresh, exciting Scottish tourism experience.
We’re passionate about blending our rich history with glimpses of the vibrant spirit that has inspired so much of modern Scottish culture.
We provide a carefully curated selection of luxury properties and boutique hotels on our multi-day trips, and because we obsess over good food and drink, we love introducing guests to the culinary delights of modern Scottish cooking and our network of local food heroes.
Highland Private Tours is locally owned and operated by a team of experienced, professional guides. We’re proud of our luxury fleet of Mercedes vehicles, and we think you’ll appreciate them too when you’re exploring the winding roads of the Scottish Highlands in comfort and style. We have a range of one-day and multi-day tours designed to capture the best that Scotland has to offer, but we also specialise in custom itineraries if you’re after a truly unique experience.
