What Fellow Travellers Say About Scotty
Cannot say enough about Scott. He really led us on the trip, getting to know each of us, and letting that knowledge help him create options/plans that really met our families hopes/needs. A great story teller, we will always remember his retelling of key moments in Scottish history. Always fully prepared--even when weather resulted in a ferry cancellation, he promptly redesigned our day with fantastic plans we never could have assembled on our own. Scott is a great communicator and seemed always comfortable connecting with the adults and the kids. He was such a central part our trip that it would seem strange to come back to the Highlands some day and NOT have him with us--part of the family!

We can't thank Scott enough. He is just a great human who genuinely cares about people. It was a gift to see Scotland through his eyes. He showed interest in getting the kids involved and excited. He noticed their interests and tried to make that part of the experience - inviting them to draw on the van when he saw their interest in art. He taught us to be better hikers, canoers and kayakers so that we could continue to build on skills even after our trip was over. And he was so funny. It felt like he had been part of our for years, not just one week.

Scotty was amazing with our two guys and Ian was terrific with our whole gang of 8. From beginning to end they took great care of us while giving us an experience of a lifetime. A true and complete Scottish Adventure!

Our guides Vic and Scott were as described: curious, calm, creative and easy-going, mischievous, patient (respectively). They managed to keep us on schedule without any aspect feeling like a rush. The food they produced and cooked was excellent and their decision making was spot on. They took me out of my comfort zone and brought me back again.

Both our leaders, Vic and Scot so professional always weather aware ( essential). Adapting to circumstances as they changed , as they do in Scotland. Gave us confidence. Alwaus cheerful and encouraging. Gave help when needed . As I did at times being a novice camper and paddler. I can't think of anyrhing more they could have done more

Really valued Vic and Scott's guiding, and help and support during the trip. Good to see safety was also really important to the company rather than blindly carrying on. They know the conditions best of all.
