Special Experiences

A Scottish experience you'll never forget

Every holiday should be special, and those extra touches can make all the difference.

At McKinlay Kidd, we are dedicated to making your Scottish holiday a memorable experience. We are constantly looking for those special and unique places in Scotland to stay and things to do, and offering them to our guests - helping you See Scotland Differently.

With our help not only will you avoid the disappointment of missing something really special, but perhaps discover a hidden gem you didn't realise existed.

Some of our pre-bookable options include:

Classic Car hire

If driving a Mini Cooper, Austin Healey, Jaguar E-type or Rolls Royce during your holiday sounds like a dream come true, then look no further. We have at our disposal the widest choice of Classic, Sports & Prestige cars in Scotland, and can arrange a tailormade Scottish car touring holiday, including hand-picked accommodation and a route ideal for enjoying these special cars.

Sea planes

One of the more spectacular ways to see the lochs and glens of Scotland. From short excursions to day trips to a lochside restaurant for lunch, to short breaks at lochside hotels with the seaplane as your transport, we can arrange all of these within your own special Scottish holiday.

Whale & dolphin watching

Truly a moving experience, and completely possible only a few hours from Glasgow.

We have teamed up with one of Scotland's most experienced whale watching companies, to offer a choice of wildlife holidays.

Cruises & Boat trips

There is so much water out there, you just have to get out onto it! We have carefully selected a few operators whom we believe offer a particularly unique or special experience. 

For a luxury experience, with high quality service and  a fabulous itinerary but without the larger numbers and regimentation of traditional cruise liners, look no further than our Luxury Mull & Argyll cruises.

Boat trips can be included in many of our itineraries, especially our Scottish island holidays, which include hotels in Skye, Mull and the West Highlands.

Train holidays in Scotland

The West Highland Line is famous as one of the great railway journeys of Britain. Why not take a day trip on the summer steam train excursion. Ideal as an add-on to tours including the west Highlands.

We are constantly adding to this list - so sign up to our e-newsletter for the latest options.
