Returning to visit D&E Coaches, Jonathan Welch looks at the company’s City Sightseeing routes and local tours programme
It doesn’t seem like long since I was last in Inverness to see Donald Mathieson at D&E Coaches, but there have been a number of developments since my last visit, not to mention the effects of the pandemic, so I called in to see how the firm has changed and evolved since my previous visit.
