McKinlay Kidd Traveller Reviews

Starting in Glasgow, we toured Scotland for three weeks using Scotrail as the primary transportation... Accommodations, other transportation and organized tours at various locations were all arranged for us and without exception were first class. We also had recommendations for dining and activities at each stop which we used extensively... We saw so much but never felt any stress about the trip... it was truly a vacation for us.

McKinlay Kidd organized the entire trip for us, with the exception of a couple of 'extra' days that we added in where we looked after our itinerary.... They were very flexible in making the days work for us and ensuring that we were well looked after... Their app that was our online guide was fabulous, it even gave us weather forecasts! We did run into other "McKinlay Kidd" folks as we travelled, but throughout the trip it seemed to be a tour for just us... We didn't run into any issues where we needed anything changed/updated but did appreciate knowing that support was always there.

It was excellent from beginning to end. The staff at M-K were very pleasant and personal to deal with right from the beginning, and always accessible. All the arrangements, whether for trains, buses, ferries, and taxis, were perfectly executed. The accommodation was great, and the personal tour on Skye was excellent. The whole trip was a wonderful experience and left us with memories we'll enjoy for the rest of our lives. Thanks to the staff of M-K !

The Grand Train Tour of Scotland organized by McKinlay Kid is excellent, every day you experience something new and exciting, excursions and accommodation were first-rate and very well-organized.

Very organized and always there if there is the slightest problem or enquiry. A very professional and caring tour operator.

We had a wonderful travel experience throughout Scotland. The weather was fabulous, our accommodation and hosts were all excellent, and traveling by train was an stress-free way to see the country. McKinley Kidd did an excellent job of coordinating every aspect of the trip, right down to a minor glitch our last day of travel. I would highly recommend using their expertise.

McKinleyKidd did an excellent job for group of 6 travelers.

Everything was arranged for us but we were on our own. We loved our time in S.

McKinly Kidd does all of the work setting up rooms transportation excursions etc. You are on your own on this non tour.

Our first time in Scotland and we decided not to drive and instead took the railway tour. Was very happy with McKinley kids selection of accommodations extra tours and overall area of Scotland.

I started with a Victoria but Lucy helped us during her actual tour with a couple of glitches. Very happy they answered lots of questions and I felt prepared and ready to go ahead of time

A week on Lewis and Harris. The Callanais stones, a Blackhouse village and a ruined Broch. Golden eagles, a school of dolphins and much more. A storm cancelled a trip out to Kilda but provided some spectacular waves

A small firm that know their area well, provide you with all the logistics wrapped up and leave you to enjoy the holiday. We have been with McKinlay Kidd before and will do so again

We had excellent guides driving the 3 of us through the islands from Vatersay and Barra north to Lewis . We were blessed with brilliant weather .

McKinley Kidd were always ready to consult about our tour and had the information to hand .

The 14 day tour captured the key gems of Scotland incorporating a number of islands - Isle of Staffa, Iona, Mull, Skye and Orkney. The tour was comprehensive and well balanced from a time perspective underpinned by quality organisation, research, accommodation and content including back up plans in the event of adverse weather.

McKinlay and Kidd delivered a highly professional and value packed tour backed up with great communication, support and flexibility. It was evident that McKinlay and Kidd have a great and respectful relationship with their service providers that was evident at all times during the tour.

Really enjoyed the small group we had and found the Highlands and Islands just out of this world. What a great time and try[

Andrew Simpson was a very helpful, knowledgeable and .accessible guide.
