We appreciate our guests from overseas will inevitably come across the odd problem or two when in Scotland. Thankfully, such problems are nearly always very minor and easily resolved.
However, to give some peace of mind when here, all guests have access to the Scottish Highland Trails 24-hour help line from which everything from directions to medical advice can be obtained.
It matters not how small the enquiry, we’re happy to help, ensuring a smooth vacation for all.
We also provide our guests with the 24 hour number prior to departure in order that friends and family can contact us in case emergency contact is required whist you are in Scotland.
This number is always covered by one of the Scottish Highland Trails Management Team empowered to make any decision required on the spot to assist you.
For guests on a self-drive package, we provide a full and comprehensive folder of maps, directions and instructions, which will hopefully keep you on the right route throughout your tour.
And it goes without saying that the same level of service including 24 hour assistance is provided in Ireland as well, should you be spending time in Ireland during your tour.
Tourist Information Centres are to be found throughout Scotland where a vast amount of literature relating to their respective areas can be found. The Tourist Information personnel are always happy to give advice and, if they don’t know the answer to your question, they always know who else might and will make contact for you.

I use all of these, all the time! My granny used to tell me I was “as thrawn as a bag o’ weasels” when I was a wee girl 😂💙🏴The Scots language has words for things no other language bothered to name.
Dreich — that specific grey, damp, miserable weather that isn't quite rain but isn't quite not rain either. The English say "overcast." The Scots say dreich, which sounds exactly like it feels.
Thrawn — stubborn in a particular way. Not just obstinate. Twisted, contrary, determined to do it the wrong way on purpose. There is no English equivalent because English speakers apparently gave up trying to describe this personality type.
Glaikit — vacant. Dopey. The expression on someone's face when the lights are on but nobody is home.
Couthie — warm, friendly, comfortable in a homely way. The feeling of a kitchen that smells like baking and has a dog asleep by the fire.
Wheesht — be quiet. But with feeling. Haud yer wheesht is the full version, and it means be quiet right now and I mean it.
Scunnered — utterly fed up. Beyond tired of something. A level of exasperation English doesn't have a single word for.
Every language reveals the priorities of the people who speak it.
Scottish priorities, apparently, include very specific weather, very specific stubbornness, and very specific silence.
Which one is your favorite? 👇

Hope everyone has been enjoying the antics of the Tartan Army over in Boston for the World Cup! Glad to see the Glasgow tradition of putting cones on statues is alive and well across the pond 😂⚽️🏴The Scottish fans didn't just bring bagpipes and beer to Boston.
They brought traffic cones for the statues too.
