We both enjoyed the holiday. The various outings were very enjoyable. The hotel was very nice and handy for the town and harbour. The service in the restaurant for the evening meal was rather slow and needs much better organisation.

Excellent tour, beautifully scenery and interesting ,especially Oban Isle of Mull and Glen coe, not much in Fort William. Hotel dated but clean food adequate, room not attended to on 2 days, and phone not working... Bar prices OK.

The holiday was well organised with travel arrangements planned and rarely any hitches. Surprised at the responsibility and tasks allocated to only one driver with no tour guide or fall back person.The coach seating was compact causing many to not wear seatbelts.The driver was friendly and personable. We enjoyed the holiday.

Found the Front of House Manager Vicky (if she was) very rude and confrontational. Deeply disappointed that the lift was out of order and having to climb 4/5 flights of stairs to reach my room. Being almost 83 and having walking difficulties I had to make sure I had everything each morning to avoid going up the stairs unnecessarily. Chris the driver was very helpful and polite at all times and tried to cater for everyone's needs.
