Three day tour from Edinburgh
Three day tour from Edinburgh up to the Isle of Skye with Paul S, our guide and driver. The scenery is spectacular and there were plenty of stops in between the main events to stretch your legs. Paul works incredibly hard and kept us entertained with stories, facts, music and incredibly bad jokes.
If you want a company to book your Scottish adventure The Hairy Coos are fab!

Amazing!!
Amazing!!! My friend and I attended both Highlands and Stirling tours guided by Hannah in June 2026. She is gorgeous and a real patriot! We enjoyed the stories she told and the songs she played during the ride. No need to mention her sense of humour:)) Highly recommended!!
How to squeeze as much as possible into a daytrip
Pick up point was clear. The driver Colin made sure that we all were safe on the bus and during the trip. It was clear what was covered and not included. The air con was a blessing. Very knowledgeable driver who shared bits and bobs of fun facts but of course also so much interesting knowledge about the buildings, nature and more. Thank you so much!

Very kind and communicative driver Ewan! Best draiver ever.
Highly recommended
We spent a long time on the road, but every minute was worth it. The journey was absolutely stunning, and our driver and guide, Brendan, was AMAZING. He was so entertaining and always willing to help, while at the same time explaining everything to us throughout the entire trip. A fantastic tour. We highly recommend it!

Our tour guide
Our tour guide, Collin, was exceptionally nice, polite, and funny. His extensive knowledge of the sites we visited truly enhanced the experience. I highly recommend this tour!
What an amazing bus tour it has been!
What an amazing bus tour it has been!
Fraser told us so much interesting facts about the history of Scotland and its landmarks. Lots of humour all the way there and back, and even a poem recited - all that while driving the bus🤩 I admire this man 👏🏼
It was pure pleasure!💫
Strongly recommend it👍🏼

Amazing Tour with Fraser!!!
Classless?
Was stopped behind a Hairy Coo coach in Glencoe at traffic lights. We had been waiting a few minutes but suddenly a woman emerged from the bus and proceeded to urinate right in front of their bus and the passengers in my own vehicle. It was a disgusting sight and not something you want to see, especially in a beauty spot like Glencoe. There were public toilets just down the road and surely a grown woman can control herself for a few minutes. It's little wonder that locals are getting tired of the mass influx of tourists, some of which literally treat their home like a toilet. Hairy Coo should not be facilitating this.
Edit: the bus reg was SG25 AFE, name Maeve and date was 26/5/26. I initially contacted HC via their website but received no reply.

John G was GREAT!!

Hairy Coo tour to Rosslyn Chapel
Went on a tour with Michael to visit the Rosslyn chapel and Wallace monument.
A truly relaxed and informative day.
Michael filled the trip with stories and info, and squeezed in a bonus stop.
Would highly recommend.
