The perfect antidote to 'lockdown'

A week hiking in Skye, a two hotel, 6 day immersion in the beauty and awe of the mountains, the coast and lochs. Good food, a chance to meet people and get to know them, to learn and to experience natures beauty.

Walking trip beyond expectations ..... SO enjoyable and highly recommended

I am a 75 year old Grandmother who traveled with my daughter on this small group hiking tour of Isle of Skye.

Each day gave us new insights and beauty and adventure that were beyond our expectations and our Hotel stays and Restaurant meals were all high quality. I have dietary Gluten Free needs that were catered to and I felt strong ...

Each day gave us new insights and beauty and adventure that were beyond our expectations and our Hotel stays and Restaurant meals were all high quality. I have dietary Gluten Free needs that were catered to and I felt strong and healthy all week long for which I am most grateful.

Gordon is a very fine, friendly, well educated and informative young man who has a fine Scottish sense of humour and pride of his heritage. He communicated well with us all and we all felt safe and cared for by him. Wilderness Scotland are excellent as organizers and dedicated to providing excellent service and making sure all clients are suitably prepared and ready to go hiking in beautiful places. I am most grateful.

I thoroughly enjoyed this hiking holiday and would definitely hike with Wilderness Scotland again.

An exciting adventure.

It was an outdoor experience where we as a group bonded beautifully as we hiked over breath taking terrain. Each day was a little different. The boat rides were exciting. The staff on the boats were most welcoming, as were all the people whom we encountered. The entire group enjoyed the vacation.

David was extremely accommodating to all our needs, right down to the numerous snacks that he had packed away in the van. He was enthusiastic and showed pride in doing a good job which was keeping us all satisfied and engaged in our journey of exploring the Isle of Skye. He shared some of the history of the area, stories of the ruins, and the names and uses of some of the plants —— all very interesting.

Brilliant hiking in Skye

Great hiking in the wilderness. Even though it was high season, we hardly saw other tourists. A range of hiking terrains. Good stories on some of the history of Skye. Great accommodation and food.

Very helpful in all areas. Informative, obliging, considerate. I didn't feel they were just trying to sell me any tour. They were very considerate and thoughtful to point me into the right trip for my abilities.

Walking tour of the Isle of Skye

It was fantastic - we had quite rainy weather but it made the quintessential Scottish holiday. Our guide, Gil, was absolutely fantastic. We covered a variety of routes, trails, and experiences in our week together - I learned so much about Skye and Scottish flora/fauna and history. It was an unforgettable adventure!! Highly recommend it to anyone for the scenery, experience, and nature.

Gil was outstanding - she was highly knowledgeable, flexible and attentive to all members of our group. She was also able to motivate all members of the group while remaining safety conscious and balance group needs and interests. She was an absolute sweetheart and I would go on ANY tour with her again!
