Sailing the Inner Hebrides by Bob, 6 Jun 2018
Holiday Rating:

A wonderful Hebridean sailing experience

Sailing in the Hebrides on a lovely old traditional sailing boat with a great crew, gorgeous food and perfect weather. A trip of a lifetime. Couldn't have been better.

A great team of three - skipper, mate and chef. They made the trip a wonderful experience with their competence, friendliness and attitude. The booking process was also very straightforward and efficient.

Sailing around the Scottish Hebrides

Sailing in beautiful scenery with a very knowledgeable crew whom I felt safe with. We were encouraged to take part in the sailing as much as we could. Amazing food, comfortable beds, brilliant trip.

Wildlife: The Shetland Isles by Marion, 1 Jun 2018
Holiday Rating:

Shetland the Wilderness Scotland way

A week of walking and wildlife viewing in beautiful Shetland. Based out of Busta House, each day was a great mix of eye-popping land- and seascapes, fascinating history, puffins and gannets and guillemots and seals and porpoises, and always a delicious dinner and warming drinks and sometimes live music to top it all off.

Walking: North Highland Coast by Ann, 31 May 2018
Holiday Rating:

I went on Wilderness Scotland's North Highland Coast Walking Tour, rated as "Luxury"

We spent six days with a small group and a guide hiking in a variety of terrains, including conquering a Munro, walking along beaches and across moors. We stayed in a lovely lodge with excellent food and had an outstanding guide who paid close attention to detail to ensure everyone had a very positive experience. The scenery was gorgeous and all aspects lived up to the "luxury" descriptor.
