Asked on August 17th, 2024Could you explain the B&B rooms. We are not sure what type to book. Are all rooms private and private bathrooms and what size of bed is in each room. ie twin room have 2 twin beds and double room have 1 double bed.
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written August 2024
When booking a tour with us, you have the option of either Hotel or Bed & Breakfast (B&B) accommodation. All these rooms are private and en-suite, so you will have your own bathroom. Hotels are slightly more expensive and are larger operations that normally have restaurant facilities on sight. B&Bs are smaller more family run guest houses. Double room refers to a room with 1 double bed suitable for 2 people. A Twin room is a room with 2 single beds.

Wayne
Asked on July 13th, 2024I am really looking forward to joining you for a tour of the Orkney Islands starting from Inverness. I use a tall walker which is 97.5cm high, 65cm long and the width folds down to approximately 35cm. Will you be able to fit it in the luggage compartment or similar place on the bus?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written July 2024
We can carry walkers as long as they fold, which in this case it does, so it can be stored at the back to the bus with the rest of the luggage during the tour. The only thing we would like to know it's the weight as well, as we have a weight limit that we need to stick to, for safety purposes.

Dietmar
Asked on June 19th, 2024What happens if I need to cancel my booking for the Orkney Explorer Tour?
- Rabbie's ToursOperator•Written June 2024
You may cancel up to 21 days before the departure date to potentially receive a full refund.
