Best way to see Scotland
Apr. 29th, 2010 07:01 pmSo, if anyone is planning to visit the Scottish Highlands for tourist purposes, I heartily recommend MacBackpackers. That is, unless you mind:
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...
- 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
