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.
This was our first walking trip in Europe and we had a good time. The route is a mix of canal paths and roads and trails through farms and forests above the lochs. A lot of the forests you see are tree farms, less scenic than a natural forest. Would recommend taking the high routes where possible for nice views of the lochs and highlands. They did a fine job with arranging the lodging and handling the luggage transfers. They also made sure that each B&B was aware of my wife's dietary restrictions.
Well where do I start . I was hoping to do the WHW last year but obviously didn't happen . Just finished this tour last week ( August 2021 ) and I couldn't have asked for more .
