Need to Chat About Accessibility?
We’re here to help! If you have any accessibility needs, contact us before booking. Our friendly reservations team will gladly assist and answer any questions you’ve got.
We want every traveller to have an amazing time with us, no matter their individual requirements. That said, there are a few challenges that come with exploring Scotland’s more remote and rugged spots. Below, you’ll find some handy info to help plan your trip.
Wheelchair Users & Limited Mobility
Scotland’s attractions are generally pretty accessible, but some locations - think old castles or historic sites - might not be suitable for wheelchairs or travellers with limited mobility.
Our buses have limited space and weight capacity, so while we can’t carry heavy, non-folding wheelchairs, we can often accommodate lighter, folding ones. Please us a call to chat through the details before you book.
Please note that our buses pick up and drop off at overnight accommodation, but in some cases, you may need to walk a short distance to reach the bus. Our guides can’t provide physical assistance or help with wheelchairs, so you’ll need to be able to board and disembark the bus yourself or with help from your travel buddy.
Accommodation
We partner with hostel accommodation providers in small towns and villages, some of which may have uneven paths or sloping streets. Most properties are close to town centres, with taxis available if needed. Keep in mind that Highland hostels often don’t have lifts, so rooms might require climbing stairs.
For evacuation info or specific needs, the accommodation staff are the best contact to ask!
Dietary Requirements
For selected tours, instead of hostel accommodation you will stay at a bed & breakfast (B&B) or hotel. In those instances, breakfast is always included. While vegetarian choices are a given, rural spots might have fewer options for gluten-free or dairy-free diets. Please note that B&Bs and hotels don’t have self-catering facilities, so preparing your own meals on-site is not possible.
