    I had the most amazing time in Scotland with MacBackpaskers - thank you!! Our guide Graeme was excellent - entertaining, informative and always trying to make our tour as fun as possible. His local knowledge of the best places to go and try for food, photos and an overall taste of the Highlands was second to none. The whole group also loved listening to his countless Highlands history stories/legends and appreciated our surroundings all the more for it! I would HIGHLY recommend MacBackpackers to everyone!

    I, and everyone else on the bus had a great time. A fantastic whistle stop tour of Scotland that I would recommend to anyone. Travelling with a small group on a mini coach and staying together in hostels means you can easily make friends with others on the bus so it turns into a social experience as well as a series of visits to tourist attractions. Our guide Graeme was fantastic and kept us entertained with stories and the history of the places we visited. I would say make sure that you are prepared for being outdoors in a country where the chances of it raining is high, i.e. sensible footwear and waterproofs will avoid your fun being dampened.

    "0verrall, the itinerary was excellent, providing loads of history. It would have been a great addition to include some folk or Gaelic music...a pub experience. One four star restaurant would be sufficient. The accomodation was comfortable with a staff ready to meet traveller's needs.

    "My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this, our first-ever bus tour. Our guide Chloe provided lots of historical, geographic, and cultural information through running commentary during our drives and at each of our stops. Her delivery was delightful and spirited, and she responded to our many questions with enthusiasm. At times the road noise made hearing her difficult, but Chloe turned up the volume when we let her know. We are in our 70's and were concerned about slowing the group down, but Chloe was able to accommodate me without impairing the others. The accommodations were quite comfortable and the breakfast yummy. We plan to take another tour soon.
