Hello NWF Team

Highlands & Hebrides
10 Aug - 18 Aug 2007

I wanted to extend a BIG "thank you" to everyone at NW Frontiers. My daughter, Theresa, & I had a fantastic time on this walking tour. Iain Davidson, our guide, was totally awesome!!! He was constantly aware of everyone in our group, i.e. their strengths, abilities & was very accommodating to those who were the "rabbits" of the group. Overall, he allowed everyone to go at their own pace. Our "minging" day on Skye provided us with an impromptu trip to Dunvegan Castle which I thoroughly enjoyed. Theresa & I were actually appreciative for the "wee bit" of winds, clouds & sometimes damp weather because it kept the midges away!. All in all a great way to explore the Highlands & Hebrides. I hope to return to Scotland again & explore Orkney & Shetland. If anyone is ever looking for a walking tour company for Scotland, I will definitely, without a doubt, recommend NW Frontiers & Iain Davidson as their guide. Cheers!!

    Hi NWF

    I was on the Highland & Hebrides tour with Iain Thow last July. Iain was a wonderful trip leader. He made it very enjoyable and memorable. He kept the different hiking abilities together; he shared his vast knowledge of the culture, history, fauna and geology with the group. He had the knack of making a group of diverse strangers feel like long time friends. It was one of the best trips of my life. See you again!

      Hello all at NWF

      I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed last week's trip to the Outer Hebrides. This is the first time I've been with North-West Frontiers and I hope it won't be the last! Iain was an excellent leader - efficient, knowledgeable, clearly at home in the hills in all weathers, and with a wealth of knowledge which led to an almost infinite ability to vary the programme to make the best of the rather variable weather conditions. He also has a terrific enthusiasm for what he does which is infectious.

      I thought the programme provided an excellent introduction to the islands. I loved Harris and would like to go back. I gather you do an intermediate week on Harris which I'd be very interested in, particularly if a visit to St Kilda can be included.

      Thanks again for an excellent week.

        My September Tongue trip

        Just to let you know what a fantastic time I had. Great walking, delicious food and a lovely group of people. Iain really is first class - knowledgeable, thoughtful and really good company, every day was a pleasure. Can't wait for my next trip.

        Best wishes,

          Hello NWF

          I am just writing to let you know how much I enjoyed my North-West Frontiers holiday at Gairloch and Loch Maree in August this year.
          The hotel was very comfortable and the food was excellent. The walks were terrific and our guide, Terry, was unfailingly courteous and extremely knowlegeable and informative. All in all, a great week. Thankyou.

            Tongue in September

            Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed the week in/around Tongue. Ian did a great job and led us on a varied selection of coastal/mountain routes.

            A special thanks to Marco for his assistance following my delayed departure from Canterbury.

            I look forward to another holiday with North West Frontiers in the future.

            Best wishes

              Gairloch trip

              I would like to send a belated thank-you for a most enjoyable holiday in Gairloch last month, and particular thanks to Ian for leading us with good humour, fortitude and flexibility. The company was good and the meals excellent.

              A nice touch of Ian's was to visit the Badachro Inn at the end of a day's walking.

              Thanks again and I hope to see you again next year.

                Camping in Fisherfield

                I'd just like to thank you for organising a most enjoyable trip to Fisherfield. The weather was perhaps not ideal for camping, but the tents stood up to it well and the spot you chose for us was idyllic. Sandy was a grand leader - with his quiet blend of Scottish humour and care for us 'followers'; obviously a man of great outdoor experience. He found interesting routes for us, which were exhilarating yet under control. And, of course, the remoteness of the terrain made for magnificent views. I look forward to future trips with North-West, including camping again.

                  Loch Maree and Torridon - Aug 2004

                  Last year my uncle and I did the Loch Maree intermediate trip with NWF and it was utterly fantastic! It was our first visit to Scotland and we really enjoyed everything - amazing landscape, great people, excellent guide (Ben), nice hotel and even the company of lovely midges!!
                  As an adrenaline junkie, I am keen on climbing and walking on the mountains...
                  I will never forget this holiday!

                  See you soon!

                      Last year in Tongue

                      I did the Far North trip last year in dreadful weather and still enjoyed every minute of it. The guide, Ben Lowe, was excellent, and the Tongue Hotel is a pleasure. I'll be back for more.
