McKinlay Kidd Traveller Reviews

We had a terrific time in Scotland, driving the NC500. Ideal time to go in mid March, as we were lucky with the weather, the roads were virtually empty and we were Midge free too! MK’s guide via the Vamoos app was a godsend in informing us what to see of interest and where to go to the next overnight stop. The satnav became redundant!

Very helpful staff who were a pleasure to deal with. Would book with MK again in the future with confidence.

We loved our Giants, Saints and the Titanic + Derry holiday booked through McKinlay Kidd. We visited Belfast, County Down, the Causeway Coast and then Derry. The accommodation was always comfortable and welcoming and sometimes quirky and stylish too! The experiences were all well-chosen and the recommendations provided made us feel like locals. We were overwhelmed by the beauty of Northern Ireland and the friendliness of the people.

I dealt with Caoimhe O'Brien, who was excellent from start to finish. She answered emails promptly and made really good suggestions. The whole experience felt very personal. I knew from the start we were in very good hands. All the documents on the Vamoos app were useful, especially advice about local restaurants, scenic drives and National Trust Properties. A thoroughly enjoyable experience!

visited Orkney and Shetland . Accomodation on both islands was good .Suggestions for places to see was extremely helpful . We had such a good experience that we would have no hesitation on using this company again

McKinlay Kidd were so easy to work with .We were sent an app with a summary of our holiday ,hotels, ferry times and even suggestions of places to see which was really useful and informative . They have kept in touch throughout which made this holiday experience so enjoyable .

We had a wonderful holiday organised by McKinlay Kidd. It was our honeymoon travelling around the Highlands and Inner Hebrides, and Caiomhe from McKinlay Kidd was incredibly helpful in helping to plan the trip and organise special experiences for us during our stay in Scotland.

Caoimhe from McKinlay Kidd was really helpful to us throughout the process of planning our holiday, especially considering there was a lot of uncertainty around travelling with COVID. She took the time to speak to us on the phone and was really enthusiastic about all our destinations, which made us really excited about our trip. We would highly recommend McKinlay Kidd to anyone looking to organise a special trip to Scotland.

McKinlay Kidd booked us an amazing trip to the Scottish Highlands, driving the North Coast 500 route, staying in fabulous accomodation with delicious food and providing such a personal service with recommendations of sights to see or places to eat throughout our trip. We had the best time and would highly recommend McKinlay Kidd.

Service, attention to detail, local knowledge, support and advice is outstanding.

We visited 6 Islands in 14 days and all links with ferries were excellent

Having been given our outline ie 6 Islands and the dates and timescales MK put together a comprehensive schedule which met all our needs.

Organisation was top notch. Professional never questionable. Friendly guides. Excellent drivers. Nothing was too much trouble for our guide, Cairan, went out of his way to ensure all guests (12) were looked after with a personal touch. His good humour was tested but he came out smiling. All in all we were very satisfied with our holiday and thoroughly recommend this company. As previous tourist professionals we actually know what we are talking about.

What a Place to explore the Scottish highlands and The NC500.Great scenery ,great hospitality.

Very Helpful, perfect advice and detailed itinerary that made the holiday special.

Possibly one of the best holidays I've taken in my lifetime (and I'm 83 !) Made by the weather and the Scottish counytside and cuisine

Almost everything went to plan and alternative was offered when it didn't. Always felt confident about the plan and arrangements

We visited Tiree and Coll for the first time and re-visited Mull and enjoyed some wonderful accommodation with marvellous scenery and wildlife. A wonderful experience, dampened, literally, a bit by the weather.

Very helpful and efficient, as we had found with two previous experiences as well. Very good at helping to tailor the holiday to your requirements.
