Ahh Scotland

Advantages: good routes, friendly knowledgeable guides, well organised
Disadvantages: some days were rushed

Once I arrived it was easy enough, checked my name off a list, handed my backpack to a scruffy looking guy in a kilt and sat back and relaxed in the bus. Before long we were off, stopping to pick up a few more people and then heading north out of the gorgeous medieval village that is the Edinburgh old town and into the rugged Scottish highlands.

They have been running tours for 5 years. It is therefore a young and active ...
...offer 3 days tour to different parts of Scotland: Isle of Skye, Inverness, Oban... etc... *WHERE DOES IT START FROM: The tours start from Edinburgh at different days of the week (according to the tour you are willing to do. You have therefore to organise your trip there… From London: By train: takes around 8 hours and cost at the least £80 By bus (that what I used): takes around 8 hours too but costs around £30 - £40 (it is hard to sleep in ...

Quick review of Macbackpackers

Greate tour, great guide/driver (funny, intresting, well known with scotish history, culture and nature, always had something to tell us), nice bus, beautyful, wild, amasing country with tragic and long history (not boring at all to hear about it) ...
