The latest news from Thistle Excursions

Excellent Customer Service

We were booked on a cruise for June 2020 but it was cancelled because of the Corona Virus. Another cruiser on Cruise Critic found this company and we were scheduled to do the Bespoke tour with a group of 8. What a disappointment that none of this got to happen. We actually had to cancel before the cruise was cancelled because my husband doctors felt it was unwise for him to travel. Even though it says no refunds on their website they refunded our money immediately and with no hassle. We hope to do a similar cruise next year and if we get to Invergordon we will do a tour with Thistle Excursions.

We also offer tailormade bus tours of the Highlands from Invergordon and Inverness.

When booking your tour please choose carefully which castle you wish to visit. Either Cawdor, Urquhart or Dunrobin. You can visit one on your tour but when doing the Cawdor visit you will see Urquhart beside Loch Ness in the background, but you do not visit both.  Time does not allow.
