Absolute Escapes Traveller Reviews

Very lucky with weather - no rain in five days. Perfect walk for unexperienced group. Challenging in 4 days - 25 km per day, probaly ideal in 5 days. The way was easy to follow. In 100 km we got lost due to unclear marking two times (not more than 15 mins delay due to good maps). The close up map was essential though.

Worked just fine with bookings of really nice accomodation; transport of luggage etc. All information in the package on the walk itself was accurate. As newcomers, we would have appreciated more details on "how to get there" and "how to get back", where to find buses, taxi etc. If it is tailor-made, it should be tailormade for us!

Good food, nice B&B's with very nice hosts, beautiful Speyside and Trossachs NP, poor weather ;-)

Very kind and flexible. They took ours wishes into account.

Great walking holiday in the English countryside and a few days in magnificent Bath.

Perfect arrangements for b&b's, hotels, guesthouses and luggage transfers.

We walked for 6 days to the Fife coastal path in Scotland from North Queensferry to Newport-on-Tay. Everyday, we discovered a new B&B, have an amazing Scottish breakfast and hit a wonderful road while ours bags was taking care off to be send to the next stop over. The Fife coastal path is nice with some amazing landscapes between the see and the countryside and some very picturesque fisher villages and time to time with some more bigger town. We also crossed over some wild path.

We were very pleased with Abslolute Escapes and they really being professionel to send us all the documentation before and everything was well indicated.

I'm a 64 year old woman who walked solo and self-guided on the Rob Roy Way. I had an amazing adventure, even when it rained. I loved the experience of walking alone. I need to work on my navigation skills as I got lost a few times and the Rob Rob Way isn't well marked in some places. All the B&Bs that Absolute Escapes chose for me were comfortable and inviting. Can't wait to do another walk in Scotland!

I was very please with the organization of the trip and the top notch places they chose for me to stay in.

We had wonderful weather and met many interesting people along the way. The walk has a remarkable diversity in such relatively small geographical space. It is a bit challenging in spots, but truly worth the experience. I have recommended it highly to our friends whom I am sure will be signing up.

We don't know much about the tour operator, but they have chose very good B & B's. and give good value for money.

Having used the services of Absolute Escapes previously. we were confident that the accommodation would be excellent, that we would have no concerns with baggage transport & if there were any problems, there would be someone around to sort them out. As if was the 13 days walking (over 200 miles) along the Offa's Dyke Pth was an absolute delight. We met some brilliant like minded folk, who loved the open air & we were blessed with amazing weather. We will certainly be undertaking further long distant trails, God willing, & will be using the services of Absolute Escapes to assist us.

Willing to adjust the mileage & accommodation to suit requirements. Provide excellent reference documentation, available to sort any problems. Professional.

My family had a wonderful time touring Scotland on a self-drive itinerary arranged by Absolute Escapes. We stayed in lovely 4* B & B's in Edinburgh, Fort William, Portree (Isle of Skye), Inverness, and Pitlochry during our eight days. We enjoyed visiting these cities/towns as well as viewing the fantastic scenery along the way. We visited several castles, historic locations and distilleries in our travels and thoroughly enjoyed each one in their own right. This trip was a memorable one for my family and we hope to return to Scotland in the near future!

Absolute Escapes did an excellent job in planning our self-drive itinerary. Scott S. was an absolute professional in creating our Scotland adventure and was promptly responsive to any questions I had regarding our trip. He customized our tour by including helpful info on not only travel directions but additional sights and restaurant suggestions for each stop. He even suggested several additional sights once he knew I was an "Outlander" book and TV series fan - I really appreciated that extra customer service for our trip. I would highly recommend Absolute Escapes to anyone thinking of a self-drive itinerary of Scotland - they are the best!

The beginning of the walk was tame towards the end going into the Highlands it became increasingly 'wild' and stunningly beautiful. The weather was very varied and the midgets a plight but still it was very beautiful. The extension of the trip to go to the Isle of Skye was a big plus, it allowed us to indulge into the Scottish landscapes.

Very professional, excellent information packs , good maps and material, good value for money.

Well organized from start to finish and we had a wonderful time seeing places and people that we would not otherwise have encountered.

Well organized and helpful.
