Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Tour guide was wonderful! More stops than expected, beautiful views, comfortable bus, just wish the mic for the tour guide was a little louder just because she was so funny and knowledgeable! Felt like we could have been satisfied with just this tour our whole trip.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I feel the need to let people know that this company is a scam! I booked this tour with them and the day before I received a (sketchy) email canceling the tour. I was promised a refund and never received it despite many attempts! Do not trust them they will take your money. If you want proof I’ll send it to you.

I enjoyed the day with lots to see along the way. The fairy pools are lovely but there wasn't as much water as in the advert. photo but the mountains are very magestic with a magical feel to them. Our driver/guide kept us informed and entertained with stories of the area.

The day tour was great! It was always clearly communicated how long the breaks were and we were also always advised when the next opportunity for a toilet trip would be. Our guide even had food for small birds with him, which even landed in his hand (!) to take some of it. For the famous long-haired cows he had carrots with him and they ate us out of hand. It was really a great day!

Fairy pools are beautiful! The day I was there, it was raining and windy - looked more like a white water rafting river than a gentle trickling, magical pool - but still awesome! Our driver, Donnie, was great - super nice!

The weather was horrendous and the tour company should have had alternate plans.
We spent the better part of the day soaked to the bone, and nearly got hypothermia.
Not only were there gale force winds and rain at the fairy pools, but we couldnt even see anything due to the low clouds.
The driver completely skipped the bridge stop, and also cut the time we were to stay in Portree (just 1h) only to stop twice at the gas station for food and drink (40mins).
The tour company should have implemented an alternate itinerary for when the weather is rough. The roads to the fairy pools were very dangerous, especially in those weather conditions, and I'm sure everyone onboard would've been perfectly happy to skip the pools and spend more time in Portree, or see some other places that were more accessible and dry.

Hi James,
We are saddened to hear that you did not enjoy your time on tour with us.
Unfortunately, the weather in Scotland, particularly on the Isle of Skye, is changeable and unpredictable. Our tours run in all seasons and in all weather conditions- rain or shine.
We can understand your disappointment at the weather during your tour, and we are so sorry that you did not have a pleasant experience. We remind passengers in every confirmation email to prepare for adverse weather conditions and bring warm layers-ideally waterproof layers.
Our expert driver guides go through extensive training and are very experienced in navigating the roads of Skye. As this tour's main highlight is the Fairy Pools, they will do their best to get passengers to reach the Fairy Pools every tour, while keeping passenger safety as the priority. If they believed the conditions to be unsafe, then they would not proceed with the itinerary.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the schedule of this tour and we will pass your comments along to help make improvements for future tours. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience or discomfort caused and we hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Scotland.
Kind regards,
Sofia

Day tour to Isle of Skye and Fairy Pools from Inverness
Inverness
My response to the email I received from the tour operator
1. As you said in your email the weather was severe and there were 70 mph winds which are hurricane force. The tour should’ve been canceled.
2. The driver was unintelligible. He was yelling at other drivers. Yes he stopped at a distillery but he also made numerous stops at gas stations and called them places to stop and eat.
3. Anyone who gave him five stars must’ve been asleep the entire ride or was thankful that he didn’t drive off the road because of the extremely dangerous conditions.
4. Viator gave us a 10% refund.
5. Your company is not accepting any responsibility or the very least apologizing for a tour that should’ve been canceled and was miserable for all of the people that spent 12 hours on a bus listening to an unintelligible guide. It is obvious that you prioritize profits over customer service.
6. You called us a few days before our trip and without explanation said that we could transfer to a comparable tour that had the same itinerary at the same price. We relied on your assurances and we’re completely disappointed in the outcome.
Some advice regarding Scotland tours based on my experience.
1. Hire a private driver if affordable. There is no flexibility with bus tours and you are basically stuck for the length of the tour. In our case 12 hours. Given the severe weather and the very bad driver, our trip was miserable.
2. Confirm with the tour operator that you will be able to easily understand what the driver is saying. I suggest you request a specific driver if they have been given good reviews.
3. Watch the weather and if you feel it will be too rainy, cancel the tour. Most tours have a free 24 hour cancellation policy.
4. If the tour operator contacts you and offers to switch you to another tour operator at the same price and the same itinerary..DONT do it. Just cancel it and rebook with a highly rated tour operator.
5. The one day Isle of Skye tour with a visit to the fairy pools is 12 hours long. Most of that time is spent on the bus. Not fun at all. May have been tolerable for us if we had good weather and a better driver. But If you have the time, schedule a two day tour with an overnight stay in Skye.

Hi Larry,
We are very sorry that you did not enjoy the tour with Tour Skye, and they have offered their sincere apologies to you as have we through email.
As mentioned through email, the tour you were moved to is comparable in all aspects to our own- very similar itinerary, similar departure and arrival time, and the exact same price. Tour Skye is a reputable highland tourism company that has been offering high quality tours for 10 years, specializing in the Isle of Skye, with extremely experienced local guides. The alternative tour you went on even included a bonus stop at Talisker Distillery.
These highland tours run rain or shine and in all seasons. Scotland and the Isle of Skye in general are known for unpredictable weather, and heavy rain and wind, and the knowledgeable drivers prepare for this type of weather to be able to navigate the roads safely. The itineraries remain flexible for situations such as this and the itinerary may change to accommodate the severe weather. On this day, as you mentioned there were gusts of up to 70mph and the driver made minor accommodations to the tour to be able to give all passengers the best and safest experience. These gusts were not expected. Tour Skye offers their apologies that this experience did not match your expectations and we can understand your frustrations, but unfortunately the weather is completely out of their control.
Tour Skye has investigated these comments with the driver Thor and they are very shocked to read the negative feedback, as they received a 5-star review for this exact same day on Get Your Guide. Thor is a local guide from the Isle of Skye and has a typical accent from that region. The Scottish accent can be hard to understand but the expert driver guides are happy to repeat themselves or speak slower.
Again, we offer our sincere apologies for any inconvenience or disappointment faced on tour and we hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Scotland.
Kind regards,
Sofia

Beautiful nature, castle history, small town charm and more. Loved almost every stop we made. The fairy pools especially were beautiful and very worth the hike to get to them. Our guide Donny was a fountain of information and very funny. He had many stories to share and especially enjoyed learned more about Scottish fairy tales.

Hello there,
We are very sorry you did not get to travel with us.
Unfortunately, our bus was unable to travel so we booked you a very similar tour with another company. We sent you details via email and also called and left a voicemail as you did not answer. The tour departed later than our scheduled tour, and we had a member of staff at our departure point to make sure if you didn't receive the information then they could make sure you knew where to go.
We hope you enjoyed your tour with the other company.
Kind regards,
Highland Experience

I took a similar day trip in 2015. On that tour, we stopped on the side of the road above Loch Ness. We were able to take stairs down to the shore of the Loch, and spend a few minutes taking pics, etc. On the same tour, we stopped at a rest stop that was next to a field of Highland Cows. We were given something to feed the cows, and I really enjoyed seeing these magnificent animals up close. I'm wondering if this particular tour offers those stops along with the rest of the itinerary. I will be visiting Inverness (with my family) in late June, 2019. Thanks in advance, for your reply
