Welcome to the forum!
What were you going to use them for? In looking at their website it looks like they offer both DIY and guided tours although I have no experience with this travel agent.

I was looking at the private driver tour called The Outlander Experience.

I remember walking past this business in May as I was meandering down George St., and it looked very interesting. I was intrigued by the use of the word "Nordic" in there. Not that it means it's a good tour company, but George St. is a very cool street with many neat businesses and shops, so that may mean something.

Just did a search and there was a mention of it on a post from a couple of years ago (for a Nordic tour) but they sound pretty straighforward. https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/norway/suggestions-for-tour-group

I think this is because they also cover Iceland, Norway and Sweden as well as Scotland.
I've not heard about them but did find this trip advisor review of their Outlander tour which you might be interested in.
Are you looking for a guided tour with your own driver, or self drive? Checking their prices, they aren't cheap... (Rabbies a very well regarded company do a 4 day, small group Outlander tour covering much the same area for a fraction of their price.)
Have a look at the Visit Scotland website which gives ides for a 12 day self drive highlander tour starting from Edinburgh. It gives an indication of where all the different sites are and some information about them.
