Wilderness Scotland Traveller Reviews

A guided walking holiday taking-in the history, wildlife and beauty of the Orkney Isles.

We've travelled with Wilderness Scotland for a number of activity holidays including walking, canoeing, kayaking and cycling. They continue to impress, especially in their management of a group holiday in this particular reopening phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.

I did two back-to-back trips with Wilderness Scotland in July 2021 - The Outer Hebrides followed by Wilderness Walking on the Isle of Skye. Both trips were well planned and executed, with no glitches at all (no small challenge in these Covid affected times!). Food was great, and the guides were fantastic - knowledgeable, caring and even helpful in giving me suggestions for my onwards travels.

I would absolutely travel with Wilderness Scotland again. I found them very easy and helpful to deal with, and flexible too.

An excellent guided walking and wildlife watching week with Wilderness Scotland in the Outer Hebrides. 3 different hotels/B&Bs, great local food, lots of trips and walks to get immersed in the landscape and history of the islands.

Well organised, Helpful, especially with tour postponements and changes due to pandemic. Excellent guides and full on itinerary for the week. Packs in a punch of places in a short time.

Brilliant accommodation, food and walks. The sea birds, wild flowers and scenery were stunning.

Very friendly and efficient.

Great sea kayaking with experienced and knowledgeable guides. Accommodation was of a good standard and meals were excellent

Wilderness Scotland trip went without a hitch from booking to end of holiday. Very friendly to deal with - good itinerary with excellent spots for kayaking- accommodation and meals also very good. Highly recommend this company.

We covered selected parts of the NC 500 route on road bikes in July 2021 - the views along the West cast were stunning and the day off activities in Ullapool on one of the boat trips was memorable for the Dolphins. Would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a good challenge on a road bike without the hassle of trying to organise it.

Esy to organise and set up, were kept informed and requested pertinent information to make the journey enjoyable

Trip meticulously planned and guides excellent

This was my first trip with Wilderness Scotland and already I’m thinking about the next! Cycling the Outer Hebrides was an exceptional experience. 6 days’ cycling with excellent guides, accommodation and food. Clear blue water, white beaches beautiful scenery.

Excellent communications before the trip and from the guides during the trip. Quality of information packs, details of each day’s ride whilst on the trip - cannot fault any of it.

A week exploring some of the Orkney islands with lovely clifftop walks, birdwatching, archaeology and second world war history
