Best way to see Scotland

[winter]

So, if anyone is planning to visit the Scottish Highlands for tourist purposes, I heartily recommend MacBackpackers. That is, unless you mind:

• Driver/guides who are mad as biscuits *waves to Graeme*


• Masterful storytelling


• Getting places via the scenic routes very, very fast (and low on diesel)


• Whisky, ale, and all sorts of delicious things


• Being allowed the right amount of time in all the right places

Oh, and sheep. But if you mind sheep, you'd better not go to the Highlands at all.

As we got off the bus (to tearful hugs and secret handshakes over having survived), we walked past the bus of a competitor tour company. The driver had a polo shirt and a lanyard with a badge. We looked at each other, then back at Graeme, and just about fell down laughing.

Now, for mad Welshmen playing crazy French people...

It'll be just the ticket :D And they're very good about answering email - if you can, ask which tour's going to have Graeme ;)

(Summer should be a bit better about the weather, but on the other hand you will not get spring lambs. The spring lambs were adorable!)
