Our guide Andy Plews made this not only an enjoyable and unforgettable trip, he made it so interesting my mother and I both are committed to continuing our own research into the Scottish Highlands and the Clans that thrived there so many years ago. Andy filled every minute with factual descriptions of how life was back in those days as well as colorful stories of the different clans and their individual members history.
