Walking - Outer Hebrides & Skye Traveller Reviews

could not have asked for more gorgeous scenery and landscapes or better weather; I have always wanted to visit Skye and the outer Hebrides and this experience could not have been much better (only issue was Covid restrictions but being outdoors most of the time, it was much less of one than it could have been on other holidays). this was one of the most memorable trips I've ever been on - enjoyed all the walks, all the places that we visited and appreciated the attention to detail and flexibility of our tour guide who took into account the wants and needs of the group and what was happening on the ground to ensure we got the opportunity to do was much as possible but also what we would most enjoy.

Wilderness Scotland were superb organisers - we had a fantastic guide and all their communications before the trip - Covid included - were clear and timely. the trip itself was well organised and ensured that whatever restrictions were in place, we had the best experience we could have while being safe.

The tour was a 6 night, 7 day small group walking tour on Skye and the Outer Hebrides. It was everything the trip was described as on their website.

My time on this Wilderness Scotland tour was perfect from pre-booking to the end of the tour. The website and staff were helpful. Our tour guide was prepared, caring and knowledgeable and the accommodations and food were excellent.

I spent a week with another 8 people (including guide) hiking on Skye, Harris and Lewis. It was an unforgettable week. The landscape was amazingly beautiful, the group was great, the guide knew so much history, stories -- and was an excellent guide on some challenging terrain. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Everything worked and was well planned and organized. It met - exceeded - my best fantasies. They couldn't have been more accommodating, their prep advise was spot on, the guide was a pro, and all the niceties like hotel and food were just right. I don't think they could have been better.

We took a week-long tour of the Outer Hebrides, exploring the beaches, dunes, hills, cliffs, and wildlife of the islands.

Wilderness Scotland was great--booking was easy, updates were frequent, our guide was great. So were accommodations and meals. It was a great vacation.

The trip was outstanding, the guide was knowledgeable, patient, and wonderful to work with. The walks were more challenging than I anticipated, but that was a good thing as we have been on tours that involved hikes that were not very challenging. The food and accommodations were great.

Our guide was Keith Miller. Keith was very knowledgeable about the locations that he took us to and knew of locations that the general tourists were not aware of. He was also knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of the area we were in. He was a big part of our having a wonderful experience on our trip.

A wonderful, fluid and delicious and beautiful journey though a road less traveled.

Wilderness Scotland seems to be wonderful logistics planners. We were completely more-than-satisfied.

The absolute best travel experience I’ve ever had.

It’s obvious they have put hours of research and experience of locales in building this tour.

I did walking tour of the Isle of Skye. The hikes were beautiful. The accommodations and food were excellent. Our guide was outstanding. A truly great experience.

Wilderness Scotland was very easy to work with and very accommodating. The tour itself was well planned and organized. I have nothing but good things to say about the organization.

Guided walking (and driving) adventure in Skye and Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

They provided as complete experience of the Outer Hebrides you can do in a week. Wilderness Scotland provided a guide. Gill, who made the trip! Her excitement and her knowledge of Scotland's history, flora and fauna, and geography, is amazing. She was the perfect host and guide. Driving through Scotland she talked about where we were, what we were seeing and what it meant to Scottish history. And on the trails hiking, she described what we were encountering from the geological formations to the tiniest flowers, she talked about the birds flying by while helping us to navigate through the rocks on the trail and the bogs. Gill was consistently positive, energized and communicated the love of being a guide in everything she did. Our group had writer, musician, and poet in the group and she brought her own creativity to us as well. She shared stories, poems, and love of Scotland. She provided the experience of Scotland in both head and heart. Thank you Gill!
