Reviews of Classic Round Scotland by Train
A truly pleasurable trip
Scotland lived up to its reputation. The highlands, the impressive landscapes, the beautiful little nooks and spots in the interiors as well as the cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh helped me and my daughter escape our daily grind and wander in bliss.

Rating for tour operator:absolutely a pleasure to deal with, this team has helped me enhance my experience - their attention to small details, their selection of properties and destinations especially within the highlands and Robert's tips for exploring each place was hugely helpful. As an experienced traveller, I will definitely recommend them to anyone who would like to explore North of England differently. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much Sharmistha. We are delighted that you both enjoyed your exploration of Scotland.
Above and beyond the expectations
Great survey tour of Scotland from the major cities through the Highlands and Islands to the Lowlands. A nice little view into the beauty of the Scottish landscape.

Rating for tour operator:From booking to departure, nothing was left to chance. They think of everything you need to know and some things that you never thought to think about. When I return to holiday in Ireland or Scotland, I'll use McKinlay Kidd again.
Thank you for you kind comments Frank.

Rating for tour operator:perfect organization starting from the first contact
Very professional organisation, excellent accommodation and thoroughly enjoyable experience.
Journey by rail around Scotland, including on steam trains through spectacular countryside. This gave us a wonderful experience in the Scottish Highlands. We found the Scottish people most pleasant and always very helpful.

Rating for tour operator:Very helpful and keen to adjust the train holiday to our requirements. The itinerary was well planned and executed. Accommodation and dining suggestions were excellent. The information pack was first class and we felt we received the holiday the operator described.
Many thanks indeed for your kind comments. This is one of our most popular touring ideas, and we are always delighted to be able to customise it to suit clients' particular preferences.
Fabulous accommodations, worry free travel, incredible food, wonderful sights to see - what more could you ask for??
The weather tried to put a damper on the holiday but with so many options of what to do, it was a perfect holiday. Everything was thought through to make it a fabulous overall experience that I heartily recommend!

Rating for tour operator:Even with the impending rail strike they were able to put us at ease - they thought of everything so we could sit back and enjoy the experiences.
We are all delighted that you enjoyed the holiday, and very much appreciate your feedback.
Dream Trip of a Lifetime
We enjoyed a lovely Train Tour around Scotland, including stops at Glasgow, Spean Bridge, Isle of Skye, Inverness, Pitlochry and Edinburgh. McKinley had pre-booked all of our trains, taxis or alternative transport, accomodations in fine country inns, and city B & B's.

Rating for tour operator:Everything was so easy and comfortable. We were free to relax and enjoy every minute, and there were no nasty surprises - in fact we were overwhelmed every day by what a wonderful adventure we were having. We could not be happier with the arrangements, and looked forward to every day, hoping the days wouldn't go by too fast.
Thank you for your kind words Valerie. We are delighted that you enjoyed your tour of Scotland.
Seamless travel with a nice intro to the lowlands, highlands and islands.
6 of us went on this journey. I would recommend it to anyone. Travel by train was so easy, and a taxi was waiting at each location to take us to our hotel. They were even watching watching the weather for our ferry crossing to the Isle of Skye - with an alternate route if the seas were too rough.
