Winter Walking in Cairngorms with Wilderness Scotland from 11-Mar-2015

The holiday was great fun, I learnt a lot, the guide, accommodation, food & walking were all superb. The walking was strenuous - so may not be for everybody - but was a superb experience.

Wilderness Scotland are excellent - I have travelled with them twice and may well go on more courses with them in the future.

Winter Walking - The Winter Highlands North West

This trip piggybacked the Winter Walking Cairngorms the previous week. The North West Highlands walking was a fascinating insight into the variety of weather the west coast of Scotland can deliver. It opened my eyes in terms of what the locals and guides consider acceptable weather for outdoor activities, I loved the irrelevance of the howling gale and driving rain, one just gets on with it!!.

I selected two walk tours offered by Wilderness Scotland, coming from half way around the world to do the trips they confirmed my bookings despite not many other people booking. As it turned out there was only 3 on one walk and two of us on the other. The fact that Wilderness Scotland honoured the bookings really impressed me, other operators may have cancelled the trip(s).

Wilderness Scotland's winter walking in the Cairngorms.

Five days of easy winter walking with a guide along various trails in the Cairngorms. Overnight accomodation in a beautiful Hotel at Boat of Garten.

Wilderness Scotland advertised a number of winter walking options that tantalised. Easy short walks at the end of the winter season that would showcase the best of the Cairngorms to the uninitiated. The number of places offered was perfect for small group travel and ensured their guide was engaging with all participants.

The Summer Isles by Roberta, 15 Nov 2014

very professionally guided in a beautiful location

Amazing holiday in the Summer Isles in North Scotland. Everything was very well organised. The guides were very professional. I always felt very safe with them. They were very good at giving us challenges in a supportive and safe way. The food was great - especially considering it was all taken with us and cooked on a camp stove.

Luxury hiking in the highlands of Scotland

We spent seven days hiking the West Hihland Way. We were provided with excellent maps and reference material which added to the interest and enjoyment of the trip. Our luggage was transported each day to a new destination, where we were warmly welcomed, sheltered and fed in readiness for the next leg of the walk.

We found the service personalized with attention to details. Any surprises along the trail were pleasant and related to the trail walking experience.

Fantastic Travel Experience

I can't say enough good things about Wilderness Scotland. My wife and I had decided that we wanted to make Scotland our honeymoon destination, but with work and other responsibilities tugging at us, we just weren't able to find the time to plan it. With less than a month to go, we turned to the Wilderness Scotland team to try and save us. Our experience was fantastic! From the first moment we spoke to them on the phone I knew we were in good hands...

With less than a month to go, we turned to the Wilderness Scotland team to try and save us. Our experience was fantastic! From the first moment we spoke to them on the phone I knew we were in good hands. We talked about the sort of things we had in mind, and within a couple of days they had put together the perfect custom itinerary for our approval. We didn't need to change a thing! Our trip went off without a hitch and was filled with fun activities ranging from castle visits and ghost tours, to ATVing and challenging, but beautiful hikes both on our own and with a personal guide. The accommodations they booked for us were stunning and sublime. And all through the trip we were surprised by little details to show they had thought about us (like chocolates waiting in our room on my birthday). I'd highly, highly recommend Wilderness Scotland to friends and family (and anyone)!
