We had a fantastic tour through Scotland’s Far North with redspokes. Dermot and Linette were incredibly welcoming and helpful from start to finish, going out of their way to make sure everything ran smoothly.

The route was thoughtfully planned, taking us along beautiful, quiet back roads with stunning scenery. The mix of rural landscapes, great accommodation, and friendly hosts made each day memorable. Starting and ending at Inverness House was a lovely touch — a great way to bookend the trip. Having dinner reservations arranged in advance was also a real bonus.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend redspokes to anyone looking for a well-organized and truly enjoyable cycling trip in the Scottish Highlands.

Our Red Spokes self-guided Far North Scotland cycling trip was enjoyable and interesting. We arrived in Inverness to start the trip prepared for any kind of weather. As it turned out we had amazing weather for the entire tour.

Accommodation and meals, starting with the first night at our host’s (Dermot and Linette) beautiful home in Inverness, were great. The cycling terrain and daily distances were a good workout but not overly challenging. The scenery along the way was a beautiful combination of ocean inlets, lochs, mountains, and open highland heath. We particularly enjoyed visiting the small towns and villages, like Ullapool, along the way. All-in-all the trip was a great “wee” adventure, and we definitely recommend it.

My husband and I had an incredible experience on the Far North tour. From the Highland capital of Inverness to the breathtaking landscapes of Tain, Rosehall, Lochinver, and Ullapool, every day brought new adventures and stunning scenery.

The route was well-planned, and the accommodations were comfortable and welcoming. Highlights included cycling along the coast, exploring historic towns, and encountering the natural beauty of the Western Highlands. We highly recommend this tour for anyone seeking a memorable and picturesque cycling journey through Scotland.

Our tour was just fantastic! We were lucky to spot dolphins at Chanonry Point, which was a magical start to our journey. Each day brought new highlights, from cycling through historic towns to discovering stunning beaches along the west coast.

The rugged landscapes, combined with well-planned routes and comfortable accommodations, made this tour truly unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Scotland's natural beauty at their own pace!
