McKinlay Kidd Traveller Reviews

Everything ran so smoothly on our Highlands by Train experience. Accommodations were first class. Personalized service all the way along.

McKinlay Kidd took care of all the details. Stress free for us as travelers.

Atlantic Twin Islands of Coll and Tiree. Very quiet, peaceful, relaxing and invigorating away from the hustle and bustle of living in the fast lane. If you are looking for a holiday of two halves then look no further.

Excellent communication from start to finish, super hotels selected. When ferry was cancelled due to stormy weather they telephoned immediately and rearranged the ferry, hotel and tour guide by the early morning.

12 nights travelling the length of the Outer Hebrides. What a fantastic holiday surrounded by breathtaking scenery and meeting wonderful people. If you want a relaxing holiday then you must do this.

Mckinlay kidd were superb from start to finish . They organised our whole holiday and it ran like clockwork. Knowledgeable staff who took the stress out of organising a holiday . Would recommend them to everyone.

A memorable trip with amazing views round every corner and each island had something different to explore and enjoy. The friendliness of the people on the islands and courtesy of all drivers on single track roads made touring a good experience.

The high standard of accommodation provided and all Robert's hints and tips ensured we got the best out of each island. All staff we engaged with from beginning to end was proficient and all could deal with any questions we had. Thank you.

I took a standard holiday offer but Mckinlay Kidd arranged for bespoke additions which made for a perfect trip. I was armed with very good supporting information so I felt very secure to travel alone.

Always available for questions and fast response to mails. Ready to amend to holiday to suit my needs.

Driving the north coast 500 gave us a fantastic view of the countryside and the people. Both locals and fellow tourists made us welcome at every stop. The organisation of the hokiday by the staff at Mckinley Kidd was fantastic!

Mckinley Kidd, from tue very first contact, were professional and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble.

Wonderful, Amazing, Superb, are but a few of the adjectives I would use to describe this holiday. The food (really enjoyed the haggis), the accommodations, the history, the scenery, the people... All combined, they made this holiday an unforgettable experience. Even when things went awry (partial cancellation of an excursion that was weather related and it wasn’t that big of a problem) those involved, immediately, went into action and developed options for us to choose from. I received a same day phone call from McKinlay Kidd, within a couple of hours, to ensure everything was as it should be. Thank you! If I were to change anything it would be to add an extra day to each location. Every place we went, I did not want to leave. The accommodations and our hosts were some of the most amazing locales and people I have ever stayed at and met. Our hosts made us feel at home and supplied us with a wealth of knowledge and information. Touring by train is a brilliant concept. More people should do it. It frees one to simply sit back and enjoy the beautiful scenery as it goes by. Wonderful, Amazing, Superb… This holiday left me wanting more through McKinlay Kidd.

If you mean McKinlay Kidd as a whole as the “tour operator”, they have made a holiday experience what it should be. Something that one will always remember. I will use McKinlay Kidd, again, for future travels to locales in the United Kingdom. They went above and beyond. If you mean the personnel of McKinlay Kidd, such as Daniela Rapani, Dora Lilla Crerand-Homanyi, Jeanette Ito and the other ladies and gentlemen that assisted me in developing our holiday itinerary I say thank you very much. They made it very personal to me and made me feel like I was the most important person that they were assisting. It matters. You are the best.

We had a 24 day holiday exploring Scotland by rail. All of the accommodations and train travel were arranged by McKinlay Kidd. Most days were on our own but our tour operator arranged several amazing guided tours and excursions for us.

McKinlay Kidd was easy to work with. They are VERY accessible and attentive. We could not be more pleased.

The Shetland & Orkney Self-Drive Holiday was excellent. The Information & Itinerary support through my tablet ensured we were able to make the most of our visit to the Islands. We were blessed by really good weather bar one rainy day. We aim to return to the Islands again !

McKinlay Kidd are clearly a tour operator who provide excellent service and support. Certainly, we would not hesitate to use them in the future.

Rail tour of Scotland.

Mckinlay Kidd had everything well planned and it was easily executed. Hotels, trains, car service, all were excellent.
