1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
The whole experience was memorable. The Jacobite steam train, the Culodin battlefield, and the warm and friendly people.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Prepare for rain and wind, wear good walking/hiking shoes. Ask about local buses in Inverness to get to the battlefield - easy and much less expensive than taxis. The hotel killiecrankie is not in Pitlochry and is pretty remote. We were lucky to have British friends with a car who met us there, otherwise we would have been disappointed about the location. The hotel is lovely, but isolated.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Local people benefited because we did not endanger them by driving on the left side of the road!4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Excellent! All the arrangements were lovely, everything worked as advertised, taxis and trains and meals all showed up when they were supposed to, no complaints at all.Holiday Reviews
