Hello, I’m Nicolas Loisel, your expert local guide—born in France, but for almost two decades, a Scot at heart. I’ve built tours around the concept of discovering another Scotland, one that’s wild, unexpected, and ever-genuine, far from the crowds and itinerary ticking.

My approach? I leave the “faux‑authentic” behind. Instead, I aim for spontaneous moments: a walk along a near-empty coast in January, deer emerging on a mountain path, your birthday at the edge of the world: experiences that don’t fit neatly in the guidebook and yet stay in your memory.

Equipped with nearly twenty years of wandering off‑the‑tourist‑trail, I create bespoke private journeys across Scotland. Whether you’re drawn to heather‑clad glens, quiet lochs, whisky trails or dramatic castles, each itinerary is hand‑crafted around your pace, passions and curiosities—not a one‑size‑fits‑all itinerary.
