I had Caithness Driving School from Wick, even though I live in Thurso.
He was a very good instructor. I am sure he still comes into Thurso at least once a week. Well worth it, he makes you feel at ease and make it all easy to understand.
Only instructor I have had so cannot comment on the rest!
Hope this helps!

I sat my test that long ago, I'm not sure if the instructor is still on the go :roll:

I learnt to drive in Wick though & used a Wick instructor. I didn't get many lessons though - its a lot better if you can get practice in a car outwith your lessons or its going to be very costly. :(

Not sure about bike instructors. I always fancied doing the intensive course for it, but not got round to it!

I went to Elgin to do the weeks bike course and would highly recomment it. Some family members have done it with David Bremner from thrumster 2 hour lessons at night, but it takes ages and works out way more expensive.

Hi there,

I passed my test 2 years ago now. I had my first lesson with one instructor ( Who i don;t wish to name) from the Thurso Area and just did not feel right at all. I waited 7 months on Eric Gunn's waiting list. He was brilliant!!!!! I had 7 lessons then ready for test. Highly recommend Eric Gunn. To wait on the list for that length of time seemed long at the time but was totally worth it.
Hope you find the right Instructor :)
