Wilderness Group Ltd Traveller Reviews

Better than I had hoped - individually organized and well done.

knowledgeable, fun, flexible, just a great fella!!

This was an excellently run trip and even more impressive you Wilderness Scotland arranged for us to have quite wonderful weather - living in Texas the daily 60 degrees was a treat in itself. I can't say enough about our tour guide. She was so well organized always ensuring we had everything we needed. And her knowledge of the flora and fauna were stunning – when asked I don't think there was ever a species she didn't know about. She was a very impressive driver, never flagging while driving on those narrow roads that required your 100% attention. The three hotels were all excellent, I enjoyed the Polchar and Castlebay hotels the best because they were bigger so had more people (and very nice bars) than the Hamersay House but all three hotels had very comfortable rooms and excellent food. Our walks were all spectacular with great scenery, a perfect pace, and never overtaxing. I definitely want to take another Wilderness Scotland tour!

Superbly organized tour with a top notch tour guide.

First time to Scotland it was amazing

They took great care of us. Would recommend them to our friends, well we already did.

Wilderness Scotland organised sea kayaking trip entitled 'The Atlantic Coast'. Accommodation was in a B&B for two nights and the Glenuig Inn for the last 3 nights. Each day we traveled by mini bus to various sea loch's, depending upon weather/tides etc. The weather gods were kind to us so we experienced some superb sea kayaking trips.

Trip was well organised and the guide was excellent.

6 days cycling on the backroads and trails across the Scottish Highlands. 5 in the group. Great weather, beautiful and majestic scenery, great company and hospitality. The 2 tour guides were very knowledgeable. Top notch. One on the road and one in the van every day. Weather in June and the riding, whilst a couple times a little challenging, worked out well. i did a bit of training beforehand (120km/w) - which helps. If you are cyclist and looking for a great adventure - recommended (I have cycled in France, Spain, Belgium and it is equally comparable). An Unforgettable trip and absolutely recommended. Check out the S W site - worth it.

Knowledgeable and organized (well planned and well-run trip). Locally Connected. Reliable. 2x Guides were fantastic.

We spent a week trekking various trails within the Cairngorms. We stayed in B and Bs, and ate dinners I'm restaurants.

The staff at Wilderness Scotland are first-rate. They willingly helped us through complicated planning; our guide was knowledgeable, engaging, funny and attentive to our interests and abilities.

Lovely sights, food, accommodations. Terrific guide.

Great pre-trip information, advice, and question-answering service.

This was a 7 day guided walking tour in the Orkney Islands organised by Wilderness Scotland

Wilderness Scotland

The hiking experience was different every day. Terrain, of course weather, the views, trees, level of difficulty made it more fun, interesting and challenging. On top of that, each day had a different event, maybe exploring an ancient library, an ancient church, graveyard, restaurant, and even a boat ride! I found it pretty amazing that plus the hotels and restaurants we visited were to me at least 4 star!

Mungo Ross was an absolute delight. His hikes were chosen and lead very carefully, and he was always concerned about how we were all doing, suggesting different techniques with poles, how to navigate different terrain and timed the stops on the hikes so we could catch our breath and relax and enjoy the views! He was able to answer all of our questions and even had fun goofing around with us on some of his answers, very entertaining! He was full of energy and information!

I got to run (wilderness walk) around the Scottish Highlands all day, then went for great food, wine and conversation each evening and retired to deluxe accommodations at night. Perfect blend of the outdoors and fine living!

Wilderness Scottland seems to be pros at this. They have good partnerships with Vendors and their guides know their stuff and have autonomy to cater. Each day is experience to the specific group that is hiking. We benefit greatly from this throughout our tour, and will likely be coming back for more.
