    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.

    I would have liked to see more of the main n island plus some other islands. I free afternoon is enough. Also I would have liked that the big cairn be included.

    Wonderful guides! They were always helpful, happy and friendly and really made the trip smooth and successful. The hikes were pleasant and the challenge of climbing up to Ben Nevis was rewarding. Amazing landscapes! Can only recommend this trip to anyone.
