I am looking to book this trip for 1 adult. My preference would be either the 20th or 27th March however these dates are indicated to be sold out. I depart the UK on the 7th April hence emailing to check if there would be any availability on the two earlier dates in March for 1 passenger.

We are not running this tour on the dates you have mentioned, sorry. The first date available would be the 3rd of April. We have other tours departing from Inverness, if you are open to do other tours. Have you considered our 3-day Orkney Explorer? It has availability on the 23rd and 30th of March.

Do you have hotel recommendations in Inverness that we could book before and after this tour that would be near to the tour departure point? Is it possible to request an upgraded accommodation on Stornoway for an additional fee?

We have a list of accommodation providers near our departure point. Unfortunately, we don't offer accommodation upgrades, as the accommodation price will be included in the price you pay at the time of booking. Please let us know of any special requirements, mobility issues or allergies at the time of booking, so we can do our best to accommodate you.

Can I combine the nine day Iona Mull sky Orkneys tour with the three day out of Hebrides from Inverness? I am available to travel from 15 May 2026

We don't have an option to combine these tours, but you can book both tours through TourRadar. The 9-Day tour departs from and ends in Edinburgh, whilst the 3-Day tour departs from Inverness. You would need to make your own way between Edinburgh and Inverness. The 9-Day tour has departures from Edinburgh on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; and the 3-Day tour has departures from Inverness on Mondays and Fridays.

Looking for 5 day Tour ex Edinburgh between June 21 - June 25. 4 day or 3 day also acceptable. We arrive Edinburgh on June 20 and depart Edinburgh on June 26 so need tour to fit these dates. Like to do Scottish highlands or scenic route or whiskey tour.

We offer a 5-day Highland Explorer tour on 21st June, but only 1 space left. Other options include: Isle of Skye 3-day tour from Edinburgh departing on 22nd or 23rd June, and Loch Ness, Inverness & the Highlands 2-day tour on 21st or 22nd. These tours would get you back into Edinburgh before 25th.

Will meals be included as part of the tour?

Meals are generally not included except breakfast if staying in accommodations such as B&Bs; you will need to arrange other meals yourself.

Can I cancel my tour booking and get a full refund?

You can cancel your booking for a full refund if the cancellation meets certain conditions outlined in our refund policy.

What are the ticket requirements for boarding the tour?

No physical ticket is required for boarding; instead, confirmation details provided after booking are sufficient.

if a wool shop stop comes available on our trip, that would be nice (not a priority) but hearing the history of the areas we travel through will be great

This tour doesn't include anything about the history of wool. Our tours offer a general history of Scotland and the areas we visit on the tour. Our trips are also quite flexible, so we are able to arrange extra stops if there is time and there is demand from other passengers on the bus.

how much luggage can you bring? I'm a single traveler and have a 28" suitcase and a backpack.

You're restricted to 14kg (31lbs) of luggage per person. This should be one piece of luggage similar to an airline carry-on bag (approximately 55cm x 45cm x 25cm / 22in x 17in x 10in) plus one small bag for onboard personal items.

What types of accommodation are available with the tour?

Accommodation is customizable, with options including B&B ensuites or 3-star hotels, subject to availability and tour package chosen.

Fabulous ‘first time’ mini coach break plus my first visit to the outer Hebrides with my 83 year old mum. The tour guide, Emily, was amazing, Eloquent, informative and passionate without overdoing the academics! In addition, I preferred the small group where we got to know each other and had fun chatting. I most certainly would recommend Rabbie’s tours. They took excellent care of us.Show more
