Superb attention to detail by Mickeldore led to a flawless and very enjoyable walking holiday along the West Highland Way.
96 miles trek the length of the West Highland Way, followed by a challenging climb to the top of a freezing cold, windy and rain-driven Ben Nevis. Rained for 5 out of the 8 day trek, so having superb overnight stays in hotels and BnBs was critical. Drying facilities were great, as was the hospitality and food along the way.

Rating for tour operator:Mickeldore's staff delivered a flawless service throughout, including a "last minute" change of hotel in Kinglochleven due to a C-19 outbreak. All the changes were actioned seamlessly, including the movement of my overnight bag. An email and phone call confirming all had been actioned meant I was not in the least distracted or inconvenienced by the change.
Thanks for your great feedback. I am delighted that you enjoyed your walk despite the rainy days. It is a fantastic route. It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stays in the accommodations that we chose for you.

The best walking holiday!
We walked the West Highland Way supported by Mickledore Travel. Every interaction with the Mickledore team was positive and helpful. Every detail of the trip was planned with care and thought - even as we had to adjust due to some medical issues that caused a rescheduling. The Mickledore team was responsive and help make the adjustments seemlessly. One on the walk, the materials they gave us enabled us to have a fun, informed, and delightful time...

Rating for tour operator:See above - we found Mickledore to have exceptional staff, good relations with inn keepers (they all loved Mickledore), and provided excellent support for us on our self guided walk.
Thanks for your great feedback. It is lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your walk and the kind comments about the work of our team are much appreciated.

Brilliant holiday with all details sorted
Walked the first half of the Westhighland Way with my son. It was great to have all details if the trip sorted so I could focus on our vacation. Information provided was clear and of quality. My son wants to do the whole trail now!

Wonderful West Highland Way
Having to cancel a holiday abroad at the last minute due to personal reasons, we opted to attempt the West Highland Way, albeit somewhat late in the year. Overall the experience was superb, despite the weathers best attempts to subdue our enjoyment. There was nothing that could have been organised better or in a more suitable way. We would not hesitate to complete similar types of adventure.

Rating for tour operator:From the outset, the "Mickledore" team did everything to accommodate our requirements and preferences, nothing was too much trouble and every question was dealt with in a professional and timely manner. We will most definitely recommend and use in the future.
It is great that you enjoyed your walk despite the weather. Thank you for leaving us such great feedback about the arrangements our team made for you. We hope to welcome you back for more adventures soon.

Magical Walking on the West Highland Way
Walked from Milngavie to Fort William along the West Highland Way, scenery was amazing, and whilst it is a long way, the support and advice we received from Mickledore meant we didn't need to worry about a thing. All accommodation was great, with a welcome cup of tea and cake provided at some hotels. We are now looking at where our next walk may take use.

Three days walking the West Highland Way
Walked 49 miles, the third day was the toughest - 22 1/2 miles. It took me 12 hours but I did it without spraining or breaking any limb! Am 81 so am pkeased to have done this. Only had time for the lowlands first half. .
