About us

Timberbush Tours are 5 Star Visit Scotland Accredited Scottish tour operator, so you can rest assured that our tours are of the highest quality.

We have been awarded the TripAdvisor certificate of excellence every year since 2011! This is a fantastic achievement we are very proud of, and we would not have received the award without the highly rated feedback from our customers.

We are lucky to have some of the best Driver-Guides in the industry working for us, and who have been a part of the Timberbush Tours family for many years!

They can’t wait to share the history, culture and show you ‘their’ Scotland. They’re fantastic storytellers, who will captivate you with stories of victory and defeat, of William Wallace and Mary Queen of Scots, of the Highland Way of life, and possibly even a few jokes too!

Travel in comfort throughout the highlands and islands on a modern, air-conditioned coach, you will reach your destination relaxed and ready to explore.

We are committed to offering the highest level of comfort and safety for our passengers, and as such we regularly replace and upgrade our coaches to ensure they are as modern, fuel-efficient, and safe as possible.

We proudly boast a fleet of modern, air-conditioned vehicles, ranging in size from 10 to 53 seats to cater for all group sizes.

We understand the importance of preserving Scotland’s natural beauty for future generations to enjoy and have adapted our business in order to be as environmentally responsible as possible: our modern coaches are fuel efficient; we promote local businesses and Scottish produce; we encourage our customers to donate to our chosen charity, Trees for Life; we set strict recycling policies at our offices; we promote the use of public transport to staff and customers.

All of these measures help to preserve the environment, and when you take a tour with Timberbush Tours, you can be confident you will be reducing your carbon footprint and in turn helping to keep Scotland beautiful.

The price of the Scottish tour that you see is the price for that tour, excluding meals, accommodation and entrance to attractions.

We don’t deal with transactions fees or booking fees and we do our best to negotiate discounts on the many attractions that we visit in order to allow you to have the fullest experience that you can when visiting the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

Booking a Scottish tour with us couldn’t be easier; you can book your tour on our website by selecting our tours, or you can pay us a visit in person and say hello at our office at 555 Castlehill, 2 minutes from the entrance of Edinburgh Castle at the top of the Royal Mile.

If neither of these options are convenient then our friendly Reservations Team are on hand 07:00 - 21:00 daily, all year round to help you book your tour or answer any queries you may have.
