Outer Hebrides Fly-drive Traveller Reviews

From arriving on the beach at Barra, one of the Outer Hebrides until leaving from Stornoway in the most northerly island a week later was a magical experience. Every island had it's own character as did the local people who were always friendly and helpful to visitors. It was a life experience chalked up!

Excellent communications, information and organisation which made the holiday stress free.

Wonderful tour of these special islands, encompassing Lewis, Harris, North and South Uist and Barra. Leaving a little part of our heart in each one…

All travel arrangements were superb, working like clockwork, taking away all the stresses and strains, safe in the knowledge that the operator knew the best places and how to access them.

Landing on the beach in Barra and making our way by road through the other islands to Stornoway . 4 stops and 2 ferries along the way .

A trip designed specifically for our needs, driving in Harris and Lewis staying in lovely small friendly hotels with lots of great advice on where to go and places to eat and with total confidence that McKK are literally a call away if we need any help or information.

We travelled to Shetland with McKinlay Kidd a number of years ago. It was a wonderful experience everything we wanted including seeing filming locations for Shetland. This years Harris and Lewis trip was our 5th holiday with this company and we're still impressed with the personal service and support. Thanks all at McKK.

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.

McKinlay Kidd makes all of the arrangements, including beautiful lodgings, and ensures the trip occurs without a hitch. We flew into Barra, and then drove a rental car up through the Outer Hebrides using car ferries pre-booked by McKinlay Kidd, before flying back to Glasgow from Stornaway.

We were so pleased with our last McKinlay Kidd holiday to the western isles and highlands of Scotland, that we immediately turned to them for help planning our trip to the Outer Hebrides this year. McKinlay Kidd excels in finding comfortable and well-situated lodgings and in accounting for all of the details needed to ensure a smooth and hassle-free trip.

We flew to the Hebridean island of Barra, landing on the beach, and greeted by a Pipe band and a crowd of locals listening to the wonderful sound. We then spent a week touring and the Hebrides, in mostly warm sunny weather, adoring having super beaches to ourselves, with stunning scenery, delicious meals in the local pubs and restaurants., and friendly ferries between islands.

The holidays was well thought out and organised including the car rental collection, the hotel or B & B accommodation, and pre-booked ferries. We were happy with the holiday price and how easy it was to rely upon the TO to arrange this personalised trip for us.

Too short but very memorable time spent between Stornoway and Tarbert. Beautiful scenery and fresh air, even driving on those single track roads was interesting!

Reliably good.
