      in your own words

      Wilderness Scotland is a brilliant company. When I spoke to the office in advance of the trip they were very helpful. I had an absolutely wonderful time kayaking in the seas around Arisaig, wild camping on beautiful islands and spotting seals, otters and even a dolphin. The guides were incredibly friendly and supportive, the food was excellent, the other people were really nice and the whole experience was a deeply refreshing and fun holiday which gave me a whole new perspective. Thank you! :)
