Relaxing on the Great Glen Way

Mickledore recommended the Great Glen Way, walking South West to North East from Fort William to Inverness, This walk starts out along the river and canal that connects the lochs together so is relatively flat. The middle section provides some elevation allowing for excellent long views across the Scottish highlands and up and down the lochs. Overall, this walk is in the Easy to Moderate range. Mickledore's thorough planning enabled us ...

Mickledore recommended the Great Glen Way, walking South West to North East from Fort William to Inverness, This walk starts out along the river and canal that connects the lochs together so is relatively flat. The middle section provides some elevation allowing for excellent long views across the Scottish highlands and up and down the lochs. Overall, this walk is in the Easy to Moderate range. Mickledore's thorough planning enabled us to relax since we didn't have to worry about where we would stay, breakfasts, lunches or luggage. The B&B Operators even provided food selections that accommodated our Vegan diet.

Rating for tour operator:

We selected Mickledore because of the timeliness of their initial response to our inquiry. The team at Mickledore was responsive, understanding and provided a contact who could help with train tickets and other transportation. The pamphlet, guide book and map provided by Mickedore for the Great Glen Way provided excellent directions and information about the region. Mickledore made sure that our self-guided holiday was flawless.

Mickledore walking holidays

We have taken five trips with Mickledore (England and Scotland). Every one of them has been great. Very well organized, and fine accommodations. We plan to take more trips with them!

Another fantastic holiday thanks to Mickeldore

Our most recent Mickeldore holiday was a walking holiday following the Great Glen Way from Fort William to Inverness. A fantastic route through the Scottish Highlands from the West coast to the East. Mickeldore booked us into various B and Bs, guesthouses and hotels along the way and arranged baggage transfer. This meant we could enjoy our daily walk with a light rucksack, which, most days, contained a delicious packed lunch provided by our hosts...

Once again we were massively impressed by the standard of accommodation booked for us. The travel pack provided by Mickeldore included not only excellent route information and maps but also all the info we needed about local services at each of our stopovers. We have enjoyed three Mickeldore walking holidays …..so far. We will be back !

Everything Organised

Very pleased with Mickledore's Great Glen Way holiday. All the B&Bs were very good and some were exceptional, taxi pick ups all on time too.

Rating for tour operator:

We were kept informed as to what was happening in the run up to the holiday and even received a phone call while we were away to update us on the changing situation in Scotland re Covid19 restrictions. Very impressed with Mickledore's professionalism and will doubtless use them again.
