Wilderness hiking in the Orkneys

Wilderness Scotland organized a hiking tour and it was fantastic. From my very first inquiry to the trip itself, everyone was helpful and friendly. The guide, Tim, was wonderful. He found out what we were all interested in and tried to tailor the trip to our preferences. He was so knowledgeable on Scottish history, archaeology and wildlife and native plant life. The hotel in Kirkwall was gorgeous and this was an amazing trip. I would recommend ...

Wilderness Scotland was easy to work with. They answered every email in one day and never made me feel like I was bothering them with my questions. I always had helpful friendly responses to my questions. Everything was so organized and I felt I could relax.

Scottish Sea Kayak Trail South by Richard B, 3 Aug 2015
Holiday Rating:

Well organised and guided sea kayak trip up West coast of Scotland.

Very much a luxury way of paddling along sections of the Sea Kayak trail towards Oban, staying in hotels rather than roughing it camping enroute. Guides did an excellent job matching everyone's paddling abilities with prevailing weather and sea conditions. Always felt safe whilst developing confidence and paddling experience by controlled exposure to more testing conditions (crossing to Isle of Gigha was particularly memorable although we returned ...

Very much a luxury way of paddling along sections of the Sea Kayak trail towards Oban, staying in hotels rather than roughing it camping enroute. Guides did an excellent job matching everyone's paddling abilities with prevailing weather and sea conditions. Always felt safe whilst developing confidence and paddling experience by controlled exposure to more testing conditions (crossing to Isle of Gigha was particularly memorable although we returned by ferry after sea state became much rougher). The holiday was not cheap but costs well reflected in quality of hotels, transport, sea kayak equipment and experience of the 2 guides. A fantastic and memorable adventure.

Rating for tour operator:

From first contact very well organised. Kept regularly updated with e-mails. Also lots of helpful advice about what to take on the trip etc. Any queries were responded to very efficiently. Everything on trip ran like clockwork reflecting good organisation behind the scenes. Guides were also excellent with very good people skills and worked hard to ensure that everyone enjoyed their holiday adventure.

Active Scotland Adventure

We recently had an amazing 9 day holiday that took us from Edinburgh to Fort William, the Isle of Skye and Aviemore and back. Our Guide, Pete, was just fantastic! He was able to manage a diversified group from teen boys to an 80 year old Granny. From booking, exploring and to departure, our trip was supremely enjoyable. We were only able to scratch the surface of Scotland has to offer and we all look forward to a return trip.

Wilderness Scotland was able to provide a personalized and flexible adventure that highlighted the great outdoors. They embodied the true Scottish experience from hiking, kayaking to highland games. The friendliness and joy of the countryside was evident with everyone we encountered.

Action packed week filled with variety

Great holiday in Orkney, combining walking, history, culture, wildlife and fabulous scenery. Well structured to pack as much in as possible, without feeling rushed.

Sea Kayaking Introduction Course by Tommo, 19 Jul 2015

superb

A week learning to handle a sea kayak on the Lochs and coastline of North West Scotland. Met with a great group of people who all made the trip even better and added to the great memories I have of this trip. Accommodated in a remote bunkhouse on the shore of Loch Torridon, and with superb guides to ensure everything ran as smoothly as possible and the experience was one to remember with achievement and fondness.

Even if you have it is still a great trip to be on or book one of the other trips!!

From handling the initial enquiry through to the end product they delivered what I was expecting. Kept you up to date and regular intervals. As a repeat customer it is what I was expecting and they delivered again. I am considering booking for 2016 but will probably do that later this year
