    We really enjoyed our trip to the outer Hebrides. Our guide Keith was personable, knowledgeable and amusing. The scenery was spectacular and we were lucky to have perfect weather the whole trip. The coach was comfortable and the a/c was great. All in all would book again with Rabie's.

    I wish the tour was more responsive to people with limited mobility. The driver did not drop people close to facilities and catered for those without limitations. Otherwise it was pleasant enough. Tour Radar didn’t pass on accommodation details or offer choice.

    Asked on December 31st, 2024

    we like the look of this tour but want en suite accommodation, not shared facilities - is this possible?

    Accommodation
    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten December 2024

      Unfortunately you can't upgrade accomodation on this particualr tour. Part of the charm of this tour is the B&Bs. That being said most of the accomodation on this tour allows you to have your own ensuite. On this tour, you will stay in bed and breakfast properties (B&Bs). These are usually smaller residential properties, with just a handful of guest rooms. You'll have a bedroom, bathroom and often, access to a communal dining room for breakfast. Rooms will always be clean and comfortable, with a private bathroom. Bathrooms are usually en-suite, but on rare occasions, access may be via a communal hallway. This means that the bathroom will still be private and only for your personal use, but it is not en-suite (located in the room). You will need to leave the room to use the bathroom.

    Ray

    Asked on August 17th, 2024

    Could you please explain the beds in each of the rooms. For example are all rooms private and have private bathrooms. Does a double room have 1 double bed and a twin room have 2 twin beds and what do the other rooms consist of. We don't want to book the wrong room for our needs.

    Accommodation
    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten August 2024

      For our Outer Hebrides & Skye Explorer - 6 day tour you have chosen our Guest house option which includes 5 nights simple guesthouse. You are correct if you were to book a double room it would be 1 bed to share, compared to a twin room which would have 2 single beds. Rooms will always be clean and comfortable, with a private bathroom. Bathrooms are usually en-suite, but on rare occasions, access may be via a communal hallway. This means that the bathroom will still be private and only for your personal use, but it is not en-suite (located in the room). You will need to leave the room to use the bathroom

      TravelerWritten August 2024

      Is there a choice of a hotel or B&B on this tour? I may have missed that.

    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten August 2024

      On this tour we have the accommodation as Bed & Breakfast or simple guesthouses on tour, regrettably there is not an option for a hotel upgrade on this tour.

      We aren't able to hold any space on this tour, the sooner you book the better. It's mostly a tour that has a lot of walking - there aren't any specific hikes.

      TravelerWritten April 2024

      I'm happy to register and make the downpayment at this time but only if it is refundable if the tour is full, not to then need to spend it on another trip.

    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten April 2024

      Please note deposits aren't refundable.
