An incredible trip although planned on a day to day basis to suit the weather and us was exceptional in providing adequate workout, exposure, excellent sceneries and experience. Everything was provided to our expectations and satisfaction by the guide!

Sea kayaking in Scotland

Inspite of quite challenging weather conditions our guides gave us the best experience we could safely enjoy. It was very professional and I felt well looked after. The food was especially good and a highlight of the trip as we all looked forward to our evening meal together in our group tipee.

Sea kayaking in poor conditions: organisation and leadership overcoming adversity

A trip that could have been compromised due to poor weather was tansformed by the support and good humour of the guides.

Walking - Outer Hebrides & Skye by janet, 29 Aug 2014

Hebrides Experience

Several high points on the tour included the Quiraing, the butt of Lewis and the Isle of Harris. Truly beautiful places that are very unique and remote made accessible though the Wilderness Scotland tour. Despite rain, wind and cold, or perhaps even because of the weather conditions which changed by the hour, the experience was life affirming and unlike anything I had ever experienced.

I felt prepared, had the necessary equipment on hand and used all of it, and the physical activity was good for the mind and the spirit. Well organized and a lovely accomodation on Harris that was very special.

Sea kayaking in The Summer Isles with Wilderness Scotland

The weather threw everything at us and so the itinerary had to be changed significantly but Wilderness Scotland are an organised and resourceful operator with good kit, good camp food and a good spirit. The midges didn't dare intervene.

Glad the midges stayed put while you braved the aftermath of Hurricane Bertha. Hope to welcome you back when the weather's a little calmer.

lovely guided walks in a remote unspoilt part of Scotland

Eigg was a revelation-a fertile, wooded, varied island with lots of wildflowers, beautiful views to other islands, interesting vibrant community. Kildonnan house was a joy, being situated near the sea with fantastic views. The food was great. Nothing was too much trouble for Marie, who ran the farmhouse. There was a lovely comfortable sitting room with a wood burning stove and lots of interesting reading material.The small number of guests ...

Mountain Biking - Harris and Lewis

The Hebridean Trail Mountain biking trip provided a different wonderful perspective of the ruggedness and long firm beaches of Harris and Lewis. In short the trip was thoroughly enjoyable and memorable.

Rating for tour operator:

Wilderness Scotland provide a diverse selection of Activity Holidays many of which I have signed up for. They provide an opportunity to witness and experience the magnificent landscape of Scotland and its wildlife. The experience is always enhanced by the wonderful and accommodating Scottish hosts. Wilderness Scotland guides are highly knowledgable of their particular discipline, Scotland's history and its flora and fauna. I am more than happy to recommend Wilderness Scotland as a outstanding operator.
