The West Highland Way fulfilled every one of my dreams about seeing the Scottish Highlands. It was wonderful that all the accommodations and luggage transfer were reserved for me ahead of time and all I had to do was just walk up! Everywhere I stayed was run/owned by such nice people and I never had a bad meal!
Enjoyed the trip 100%. People services were well organized and thoughtful. The scenery was gorgeous. Only one criticism was lack of a outdoor toilets which may have lessened the disturbing litter of toilet paper occasionally spotted.
Great walk with changing country. Really clear signposting. The high point was fort Augustus to invermoriston on the high route even with the steep down.
Fabulous trip, if too rushed at the beginning. If we could set off on day 1 from Inverness earlier in the day it would be preferable. Days were a bit rushed, too, leaving hardly any time to explore/do anything in Kirkwall, since they rool up tge sidewalk at 4:30 or 5pm. Marco did great job of altering itinerary to accommodate those who wanted time in town. An additional day, however unwieldy for the tour operator, could easily solve it. On last day, the later departure from Kirkwall helped too. The walks and Neolithic sites were great, made incredible by the fantastic sunny weather we were lucky enough to have. The guides providing dinner reservations for the group was helpful too, as the place seemed quite busy.
