We will be flying into Glasgow on August 26th to begin our honeymoon. We'll be heading up to Loch Lomond first, and we are looking for a great company to use for our transfer from the Airport to our hotel in Loch Lomond. After an overnight flight, we just want to be able to relax on our ride up there and would like to use a reputable company with great prices! Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! :)

Any suggestions for a prepaid SIM card (talk & text - no 3G/4G needed) with good coverage in the Highlands and west coast? Low international rates preferred but not essential. It's also a plus if the card could be purchased at Edinburgh Airport (my point of entry). Thanks!

Hi does anyone know any good hotels to stay in Glasgow?

Can anyone tell me what is the best way to travel from Isle of Skye to London? I don't have a car...Thanks!

Hello all, it appears I made a bit of a tactical error planning our upcoming trip to Scotland - taking public transit on a Sunday. We were planning to take the bus from Inverness to Fort William, then change to a bus to Oban... but the bus Fort William to Oban doesn't run on Sundays. Oops...

Looking at various resources, it seems we have 3 choices. The first, suggested by Citylink's website, is to take the bus to Tyndrum and change there for the bus to Oban. The second, suggested by the Travel Scotland app, suggests the train to Crianlarich, changing there for the train to Oban (this would involve about a 2-hour layover in Fort William right around lunchtime - not the worst option in the world). The third, also suggested by Travel Scotland, would be to take the bus from Inverness to Spean Bridge, then changing for the train to Crianlarich (and on to Oban).

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

I plan to travel from Birmingham to Edinburgh. What can i visit and where to go?

I represent a group of med students. We are willing to visit scotland's malt whisky trail in July and we have some questions regarding it. First of all, after walking the great glen way from Fort William, we will be traveling from Inverness on foot or by public transport to the region of the whisky trail. We will only be able to stay there for 2 days and we'd like to see and experience the essence of scottish whisky. Would you be able to recommend us the best way to travel between the distilleries? Could you also suggest us which distilleries are a must-see, since we probably wont be able to visit them all?
We've also heard that in July the great glen way is occupied with small flies which are unbearable. Is it true?
Thanks for your advice :)

It appears we'll need to take a taxi from Glasgow Queen Street Station, including Minifrosch. What are the rules as to child seats in taxis, and how easy/difficult is it to find a taxi with a child seat (if required)? Thanks!

Hi! We are a group of 3 in our mid 30s (husband, me and friend) visiting Scotland for the first time in early June. We will fly in from London and was hoping to get suggestions on itineraries? Here is what we are interested in:

-beautiful scenery (mountains, lakes etc)
-quaint villages, towns and pubs
-Edinburg
-nothing too touristy like Loch Ness (though a castle or some whiskey would be great!)

We are planning on renting a car but definitely don't want to pack in too many destinations and thus time in the car! We are flexible on cities to fly in and out of in Scotland.... Any suggestions on an itin would be much appreciated! I know we won't nearly see it all in 5 days but am hoping for a few great places!
