West Highland Way Traveller Reviews

My friends and I have walked with Mickledore on a previous occasion, on the Coast to Coast in England. Having enjoyed that so much, we then booked the West Highland Way and Great Glen Way in Scotland for our next walking adventure. It was everything we could have wished for, supported by the wonderful organisation and expertise that Mickledore offered.

Mickledore offer a wide range of walks in the UK to suit all abilities and tastes. The pre-departure support is fantastic, with excellent, prompt communication and the provision of a very comprehensive holiday package providing all the information you could possibly need, along with great guide books, maps and walking notes. The accomodation they select and book is always of a high standard with lovely hosts, and luggage transfer is seamless.

Our trip in October was better than we hoped and every mile brought on a new sense of magic only the highlands can offer with their majestic backdrop. Rainbows and some rain, tons of waterfalls, moors and mountains, castles and historic buildings along the way made this vacation unforgettable.

We can't imagine doing a walk without their careful help and planning. They reached out pre-trip to warn about some potential rain-related detours! They manage to find us the most bespoke accommodations and interesting places to visit and we can't thank them enough for making our hiking holidays so amazing.

From start to finish, Mickledore took care of every detail so I could focus on completing this once in a lifetime, epic journey. Knowing I was i good hands with them, I throughly enjoyed every aspect of every day, was successful in walking to completion, and I owe a big part of that to MIckledore.

smooth booking from beginning to end.

We walked the West Highland Way and Mickledore arranged each of our accommodations along the way and also arranged the transport of our luggage between each accommodation. Every accommodation was very good and everything went very smoothly

They organised each accommodation faultlessly and were very helpful on the phone when I lost my paperwork and emailed it to me straight away.

What a superb Westhighland Way walking holiday we have just had . It was well worth the wait after being previously cancelled due to the Covid pandemic. We walked the WHW over 7 days with one rest Day at the fabulous Kings House in Glencoe surrounded by the majestic black mountains Our highlights were:- The views of Loch Lomond on top off a very blustery conic hill The exciting walk and scramble along the lock side with the most stunning views of the Loch Lomond and soaking our feet in icy cold water of the Loch. Walking along Rannoch moor and reaching the Spectacular Kings House surrounded by the most stunning mountainous scenery Sheer bliss !! Great views everywhere which got better & better as we progressed from the lowlands to the highlands. A great variety of terrain from Country lanes rocky paths Forrest paths Moorland ups and downs which we loved devils staircase and old military road. Loved having a new adventure every day and the lovely people we met along the way . The beautiful places where our B&B & hotel accommodations were. Loved all the places we stayed but especially Kinlochleven Kingshouse and Drymen The weather was very mixed from Heavy rain light rain drizzle and the occasional sunny spells. The rain didn’t spoil the holiday at all in fact it was very refreshing !! And made for photos with moody skies !! . Altogether a Superb Stunning Spectacular Westhighland Way holiday that will stay with us in our memories forever.

This is our 3rd Walking Holiday with Mickledore. What can I say we just keep coming back to Mickledore! The holiday was so well organised & went like clockwork !

We had a beautiful 100 mile walk through the Scottish Highlands. As usual, Mickledore handled all the details perfectly. The accommodations were lovely, and the luggage was transferred without any problems. This was our fourth walking holiday with Mickledore, and we have more planned.

See above.

Well organised walking holiday with interesting accommodation and efficient luggage transport arranged by Mickledore

Always friendly and happy to talk. efficient holiday planned and tailored to us with no fuss or pressure.

96 miles trek the length of the West Highland Way, followed by a challenging climb to the top of a freezing cold, windy and rain-driven Ben Nevis. Rained for 5 out of the 8 day trek, so having superb overnight stays in hotels and BnBs was critical. Drying facilities were great, as was the hospitality and food along the way.

Mickeldore's staff delivered a flawless service throughout, including a "last minute" change of hotel in Kinglochleven due to a C-19 outbreak. All the changes were actioned seamlessly, including the movement of my overnight bag. An email and phone call confirming all had been actioned meant I was not in the least distracted or inconvenienced by the change.

One of most enjoyable walking holidays, ad we have done a lot of them. Very good choice of accommodations booked for us and very helpful list of places to each at every location. Good information and service overall.

Friendly and helpful, very efficient.

First time we’ve done a walking holiday. Easy to book , quick response to emails etc. Everything went like clockwork. Loved the amount of info we received, the map guidebook etc. Would definitely recommend .

Great. Friendly helpful prompt service.
