We thoroughly enjoyed walking the West Highland Way, meeting some wonderful people along the walk. The trip was well organised and the logistics worked seamlessly. We look forward to our next walk!
The guiding was comprehensive, informative and flexible. We learnt a lot about the ecology, history and people of Scotland. The bus was comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed all the different styles of hotels we stayed in and the food service was amazing. Thank you for the extra evening meal which we enjoyed at Duisdale House Hotel. My interests lie with flora and fauna along with history and old architecture. I was suitably impressed with everything we stopped to see. The only slightly down point of the journey, which relates to personal preferences, was the lunch stop at the Waterside Seafood Restaurant. Yes it was supposed to be a taste experience and it was, but the meal needed to include more food without a smoked flavour. I think this would have enabled a better appreciation of the smoked flavours. The one thing that I felt was missing was a balance to the history, ecology and amazing food and accommodation - a arts/musical experience. Could you please consider including a music and dance experience (as in try it out) in the future? We were very,very satisfied with out trip.
We enjoyed getting to see everything in Scotland, The Isle Of Skye, The Isle of Mull, and the Isle of Iona. The accommodations were great and the food delicious!! Our guide ,Gordon, was very good, being a Scotsman himself. He certainly knew his country.
