Wilderness Group Ltd Traveller Reviews

Visited the highlands to bike, hike and kayak. Great guides, fun adventure.

Wilderness Scotland arrange everything from accommodations to equipment used. They were great.

I'm not really quite sure how we decided upon Scotland, other than that Edinburgh was more convenient meeting place from Afghanistan, Myanmar, and the United States than Greenland. We wanted to rest our eyes on shades of green, breathe sweet, clear air, and not have the vistas marred by other tourists jostling for an iconic view. In short, our path to Wilderness Scotland, and ultimately to Arisaig and the Isle of Eigg, was not straightforward. With no preconceived notions of Scotland (although I had attended a Burns Night in Lusaka, Zambia some years ago), we were in the best of positions for any traveler: we could be fully in the moment as we ambled along the 'well trod' path, listening to the sound of the sea and the many birds, watching the sheep graze. Sometimes we remarked upon some particularly interesting aspect of the island's geology, but we generally walked in the companionable silence of long-time friends, who have abandoned the need for pretense in the relationship. Did we make the scramble up to the top An Sgurr? We realized the fine line between bravery and foolhardiness, and decided that the attempt would only detract from our experience. With only two good knees among the three of us, we had learned that lesson. Did that detract from our enjoyment? No. In fact, that decision point will most likely be the memory we share many years hence.

Wilderness Scotland was outstanding. They responded promptly, their material was accurate, and all arrangements from travel to accommodation were seamless. A most restful break.

A trip for kayaking on the west coast of Scotland with a two night camping expedition.

Excellent service: Very helpful before the trip started. Kept me updated about the holiday. Answered any questions promptly and even made sure special requests were taken care of.

My holiday with wilderness Scotland was fantastic. Really enjoyed doing sea kayaking for the first time with 2 excellent guides who made everyone in the group feel welcome and safe at all times. Really great seeing lots of wildlife around the islands we kayaked like seals, sea eagles, otters and lots of birds with chicks. Was overall a fantastic experience.

Really great feedback. Had a fantastic time and all aspects were made simple and easy so that anyone was able to follow what was going on.

A truly challenging experience well led and fun

excellent tour operator , second trip with them and planning to go again

Sailing and walking around the Small Isles, Skye and the Knoydart peninsula in Scotland

Excellent - very helpful and organised.

I mountain biked Coast to Coast across Scotland.

Wilderness Scotland provided everything right to make my holiday and unforgettable experience.

We sailed around the Inner Hebrides Islands of Scotland and went on day hikes on the island. Everything about the trip was fantastic and I would do it all over again.

The operator was helpful, easy to contact and gave us any additional information that we needed.

Visiting various different areas of Scotland to view the wildlife. Standard of accommodation and food way in excess of what you expect in a "Wilderness". Excellent tour guide.

Clearly put a lot of effort into designing a good tour with a lot of events in the available time. Clearly trying to look after the clients.

I took this holiday to learn the basics of sea kayaking, and it was excellent. The guide that we had was very experienced and was able to cater for the various levels of experience that all the members of the trip had, with no one feeling left out of any part of the training or the paddling tours that were undertaken. The accommodation was good, and provided the perfect base for us to explore the surrounding area in the Kayaks. I learned a lot on this holiday and will take another one at a later date.

Wilderness Scotland provided an excellent package for this holiday, the equipment supplied was perfect for the holiday, the Guide was able to perform the tasks of teacher/mentor with great enthusiasm, which increased the fun of the trip. The accommodation supplied was of a good standard and was equal to our needs, and the information package supplied both before and during the holiday was just right for the level of knowledge that I had. All in all an great holiday and I will definitely consider using Wilderness Scotland again for similar holidays.
