Land on the Sand on Barra Traveller Reviews

We were celebrating my husband’s 70th birthday so were looking for something special. The flight in the Twin Otter plane and landing on the beach was a unique and memorable experience. The accommodation was excellent as was the full-day excursion exploring the island of Barra.

Everything went like clockwork, McKinlay Kidd organised the whole trip very efficiently. They took care of flights, accommodation, car hire and excursions. We were kept well informed in the run-up and they responded quickly to queries. We were provided with detailed documentation including travel tips, maps and recommendations.

Wonderful holiday, organised by McKinlay Kidd. I would never have been able to liaise the tide timetables for landing and hotel accommodation, much better to let the experts do it for you. Once in a lifetime holiday and a tick on my bucket list.

Very expertly handled considering the complexities of liaseing tide timetable for the beach landing and the availability in the hotel.

The flight to Barra is a great experience. Seeing Scotland from above close up. Landing on a golden beach, aqua seas never forget. Barra is an Island with the friendlies folk. Love Scotland and its Islands.

Holiday by app.!! A learning experience for oldies !! Easy to follow.

The experience of landing on a beach runway in a tiny twin otter plane. The island of Barra and its neighbouring island of Vatersay’s glorious white sandy beaches, scenery and laid back friendly vibe. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Second time we’ve travelled with McKinlay Kidd. Professional, courteous, friendly and you can always rely on great accommodation.

Three days including flights to Barra and accommodation in a small hotel

Helpful, competent, informative.

Landing on the beach at Barra Airport in the sunshine. A wonderful holiday. Stayed at the Heathbank, very comfortable accommodaton and Marion the owner was so nice and helpful, the breakfasts were scrumptious Had our evening meal at the hotel which was also very tasty.

Caoimhe our contact at McKinlay Kidd organised the trip for us, we received our booking details along with directions to the hotel and a list of some places worth visiting. Well my husband will tell you it was a memorable 70th birthday and McKinlay Kidd made it stress free.

Landing on the beach at Barra is really memorable and all the people in the Outer Hebrides could not be more helpful.

McKinley Kidd provided an excellent, professional service.
