Wilderness Scotland Traveller Reviews

I found this Wilderness Scotland 'Winter Skills' holiday to be friendly and well-organised. With an excellent and experienced guide I was able to see some fantastic scenery and get a first taste of walking with crampons and ice-axe. The accommodation and food were very good too. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone wanting a similar experience.

Wilderness Scotland provided an excellent guide, who clearly had substantial experience, flexibility and good people skills to ensure we have a safe introduction winter mountaineering. The company also provided detailed information on what equipment I would need for this trip.

3 .5 days winter walking in Cairngorms; lots of walking and winter skills learnt

Wilderness Scotland were excellent leader very good highly recommended

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.

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).

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.

5 days walking in Cairngorms. Trip was diligently put together, well planned & perfect.. Kirsty was most attentive & her good humour & expertise shone throughout . Careful choice of hotel & resturants meant that we ate to a very high standard. 10/10 I am happy for these comments to be published but without my email address please or any detail that would engender unwanted correspondence .

A really good short break in the Highlands - we were so lucky with the weather so enjoyed stunning scenery.

Very good indeed

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.

very good

Walking in Torridon in the rain

Wilderness Scotland - a top class outfit.

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.
