I joined their 2021 west highland way tour and walked 96 miles in 7 days which was the best experience for me. Our tour guides, Rosie and Ben, were extremely helpful, kind, considerate, and professional. It was my first time to walk multiple days continuously and I would not be able to complete 96 miles without their advices and encouragements. I highly recommend joining tours orgainsed by the tour operator.
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.
As I had booked 2 tours following each other I think one free night at the beginning or at the end of either tour should have been offered ...I feel that the "early bird " customer discount was not enough...considering the price . Other than that point I have no complaints
