Testimonials

Pierre Albert Gaspard, Beirut, Lebanon

This trip was as exciting as all the other redspokes trips I have been on. The quality of the accommodations, the stunning scenery and the challenging rides made up all the ingredients for a memorable tour.

A special thanks to the redspokes team Carl, Clare and Richard for their support and dedication. This Scottish week will stay in my memory for a long time and confirms redspokes as my first choice for outdoor adventures.

Fadi Asmar, Beirut, Lebanon

Great tour covering a very scenic part of Scotland, the whole tour was fantastic. Loved the cycling, scenery, cycling companions and the fabulous accommodation, particularly the nights in Ardtornish, a truly magical place. The support from Carl, Clare and Richard during the tour was beyond the call of duty! I thoroughly enjoyed it and would absolutely recommend it to anyone.

David Mercer, Middlesbrough, England

It was great to ride with redspokes again, this was a potentially tricky tour with quite a few ferries to catch, variable Scottish weather, not too many alternative choices of food or accommodation if timings went wrong, Demot made it all look effortless, modifying the rides if necessary to ensure we stayed on track. He is a very motivating and enthusiastic tour leader, always being there when some encouragement is needed to get to the top of a hill.
The group rode well together, no one really ahead or behind, again with Dermot watching out to make sure we could all cope with the route, and providing a much needed stop with a cake and cup of tea at the critical moments.
A really enjoyable tour, with the hills and the weather providing a nice challenge and sense of achievement at the end of each day

Mike & Berta Glodowski, Wisconsin, USA

Our tour through Scotland was wonderful! The beautiful landscapes and colorful character and warmth of the Scottish people made for a truly unforgettable experience. The accommodation included interesting historic hotels and expansive rural estates and warm comfortable Bed and Breakfasts. Last but certainly not least our tour guide Dermot with his amazing logistic skills and entertaining personality made for another fantastic redspokes adventure!

Andrew Richards, Stratford-upon-Avon, England

It was great to see parts of Scotland which I hadn't seen before, and I will definitely be going back to some of the places again.  Keeping away from the tourist areas and speaking to locals was also nice, rather than being caught up with the masses all the time.

Shirley and Trevor Acreman, Stratford-upon-avon

Fabulous routes and scenery with quiet, many singletrack, roads. The weather was Scottish, with sun most days and rain most days - but nearly always with a wind behind! Mull and Jura were highlights for cycling and the ferries were fun. With the unpredictability of the ferries and the weather I'd recommend this supported trip as the best way to get a flavour of the Highlands and Islands.
