Excellent guide wih Wilderness Scotland

My husband and I took Wilderness Scotland’s walking tour of Skye and the Outer Hebrides with Craig Tweedie. This was their first of the season and only one other guest joined us. Craig shared his amazing wealth of knowledge of the history, geology, culture, flora and fauna as he guided us in some walks through the most beautiful terrain. Our accommodations and meals exceeded our expectations.

Wilderness Scotland have a great formula for providing everything you want in a tour. Their staff provided excellent guidance to booking the right tour for us. Their booking process was straight forward. They provided us with all the information needed for what to pack and where to meet. Our guide was fantastic and the tour was better than we imagined.

It was the best of times.

Our holiday was one of the best we have had. The only glitch was accomodatiion as we were asked to share a suite with a single female and had not been previously consulted. When we complained, the company was able to change it for two of the four nights. We. Had paid a good sum of money for this trip and may not have booked with them had we known this . However they did their best to fix the problem.

Don was an amazing guide. He had wonderful information, patience and the ability to read the group dynamics. We would take another tour with him in a heartbeat.

Skye and Harris with Wilderness Scotland

Excellent hiking and breathtaking views, from the Quiraing on the Isle of Skye to Scalpay of Harris. Lovely hotels, excellent food, and the best hiking on the planet!

Skye and the Outer Hebrides Hiking

We hiked Skye and the Outer Hebrides for a week. The hiking was really enjoyable and relaxing. The other wonderful part of this holiday was the ability to connect with some of the amazing people who live on these islands. We had the privilege of hearing their stories and laughing with them. It was an amazing week of escaping the world to a place where there is peace and quiet, and also a sense of stepping back in time. A sense of community ...

Hiking the Outer Hebrides

This was a week long guided hiking tour of Skye and Harris with a small group of 7 people. It was fabulous! Our guide was a lovely person, very knowledgeable, and I always felt safe and well taken care of. The hikes were beautiful, just beautiful country, really special. The food was fabulous! And the good people of Scotland were so nice and friendly and welcoming. It was really a great trip - memories of a lifetime.

A very enjoyable walking holiday.

The weather in Scotland is notoriously unreliable and, true to form, the first couple of days the mist was so thick that we could not see the mountains at all. Apart from that, our guide was great, my walking companions interesting and fun, and the walking itself enjoyable.

Perfect blend of scenery, wildlife and walking

The Outer Hebrides is a stunningly beautiful part of the country often overlooked for warmer climates. The weather may not always be so clement but you are rewarded with amazing scenery, golden beaches and wildlife with hardly another soul around. The Wilderness Scotland guide was always willing to share his in depth knowledge of the area, birds and wildlife and answer any questions we had.
