Absolute Escapes Traveller Reviews

We walked for 5 days on the northern section of the Pembrokeshire coast walk. Our bags were transported and bookings and guides arranged by Absolute Escapes.

Responded quickly to emails and delivered what they promised.

Attention to detail first class, lovely places to stay info spot on

Everything went as we expected, it was well organised and the distances we walked were manageable. We would recommend it to our friends as an excellent holiday and way to see and experience the area.

Our tour operator was easy to deal with and interested in providing us a walking tour we were comfortable with undertaking.

Great job finding accomodating suitable for disabled person. Great suggestions, very helpful.

We booked our two week self drive tour in Scotland through Absolute Escapes because we wanted their expertise in the best route to travel and great places to stay. We knew the general outline of where we wanted to go, and Absolute Escapes did a wonderful job of honoring our requested general outline while also adding some amazing must-see places. James, Andy and Scott all worked with us and they were very thorough and attentive. Every last detail was planned for us in terms of accommodations, the car rental, a ferry booking, etc. It would have taken us months of research to come up with the same travel plan. Everything was went very smoothly. All we had to do was show up! Our accommodations were all wonderful, and the added suggestions by James of places to go and stay were some of the best highlights of our trip! We could not be more happy with our trip!

We did not go on a tour with a group, but rather a self-drive trip across Scotland for two weeks. However, the planning by James, Andy and Scott was excellent, and they did a wonderful job of putting together our route, accommodations and destinations along the way. We had the luxury of pre-booked accommodations selected by Absolute Escapes, a travel plan with maps, suggested routes, etc. yet we also had the independence to go where we wanted and when we wanted spontaneously. It was perfect!

After a three-day visit of Edinburgh, we took a car tour of Scotland with stops at Fort William, Portree, Inverness and Callander. We stayed in B&B's. We saw a lot a beautiful landscapes (especially in the Glencoe dale and on the Isle of Skye), a lot of beautiful places (Eilean Dunan castle, Blair Castle, Edinburgh) and met lots of nice and proud Scots. They are proud of their country and they show it although that nationalism might sometimes irritate some people. To sum it up: a successful holiday in a completely different country and full of nice memories and loads of lovely pics.

He adapted the tour to our wishes and was always quick to answer our mails.

We had a lovely time walking the West Highland Way with our dog, even the weather was mostly kind. Well organised with very good quality accomdation booked for us, all trasnfers were very smooth and all in all a very stress free week.

Good communication, very tailored itinary for us and lots of helpful information provided.

We had a wonderful time on our walking trip of the Speyside Way, unforgettable in so many ways. The springtime countryside was at a peak with intensely green hills broken up by bright yellow fields, beautiful pastures, the dark and fast Spey river, spring flowers and the wonderfully warm people of Scotland.

Quick to respond and very helpful documents for our trip.

Best holiday in ages. Organisation of the holiday by absolute escapes was flawless; excellent communication and very memorable accommodation. So grateful that hey were able to change arrangements at short notice

Excellent and very helpful

WE WERE 8 ADULTS, WALKING 150km FROM DRYMEN TO FORT WILLIAM. WEATHER WAS VERY RAINY, BUT THE WEST HIGLAND WAY TREK WAS VERY "FIENDLY". ABOVE ALL, WE ENJOID A PERFECT SUPPLY OF ACCOMODATION BOOKING AND BAGGAGE TRANSFER BY ABSOLUTE ESCAPES.

Andy and his team, manage to find the best B&B along the route, and gave us a pefect "back office" assistance.
