An amazing trip around Scotland
10 night train tour around Scotland with stops in Sterling, Inverness, Plocton, Isle of Skye, and Spean Bridge. It was a great way to get a taste of Scotland. The weather was fantastic and we had the best time.

A wonderful rail journey around Scotland
We wanted the independence of a road trip, without the burden of driving on the left side of the road. This rail journey was perfect. The carefully selected hotels and guesthouses were all beautiful places to stay, and we would never have found them on our own. The vacation exceeded our expectations. Amazing scenery, beautiful hotels, great food, great people!

Rating for tour operator:McKinley Kidd put together an excellent rail journey around the Scottish Highlands. It was very well organized, and our instructions for travelling from one place to the next were very clear. We had not problems at all, and we loved our vacation.

The lodging arrangements were lovely and our hosts very helpful. McKinlay Kidd took the stress out of traveling allowing us to truly enjoy each stop.

Beautiful Scotland!
We had an amazing 12 days touring Scotland by train. We visited Edinburgh, Stirling, Inverness, Skye, Spean Bridge, and Mallaig by train, with the odd taxi an ferry in the mix! It was the perfect mix of activities planned by McKinlay Kidd and things we decided ourselves.

Many thanks indeed Nancy. It was a pleasure arranging your tailormade train holiday and so pleased to hear that you enjoyed it.
Very special holiday in Scotland, including Skye.
This holiday was our 30th anniversary celebration and was beautifully arranged by McKinlay Kidd. Travelled by train from inn to inn, with lots of special excursions along the way. Full day guided tour of Skye with a knowledgeable Scot in a kilt. Good food. Lots of interesting places to walk. Gondola ride to the top of Aonach Mor with spectacular views.

A fascinating and well organised holiday
We very much enjoyed the range of locations and experiences on our tour of the Highlands. The organisation was superb and, despite moving on every couple of days, it was very relaxing. We learnt a great deal about our shared history and were treated to local knowledge and hospitality everywhere we went.
