Easyways secured decent accommodation for every night and the people working there were friendly and helpful. The guidebook and OS maps were very useful and the JoG route, while sometimes challenging, is largely well-signposted, has plenty of bridges and stiles and takes walkers to some stunning beautiful places.
I recently completed the West Highland Way with EasyWays, and I can’t recommend them enough! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free, allowing me to fully enjoy the beauty and adventure of Scotland’s most famous long-distance walk.
The EasyWays team took care of all the logistics, including booking comfortable accommodations and arranging baggage transfers between each stop. Every hotel and guesthouse I stayed at was welcoming, clean, and perfectly located along the route. It was such a relief to know my bags would be waiting for me at the end of each day—one less thing to worry about after a full day of hiking!
What really stood out was the attention to detail and personalised service. The comprehensive information pack provided before my journey was full of useful tips, detailed maps, and a clear itinerary that made navigation a breeze. Whenever I had a question, the team was quick to respond with friendly and helpful advice.
Walking the West Highland Way is a bucket-list adventure, and EasyWays made it all the more special by handling the planning so I could focus on the incredible scenery, from the dramatic peaks of Glencoe to the serene shores of Loch Lomond. This was my first walking holiday, and I’m already looking forward to booking my next trip with them.
If you’re looking for a hassle-free walking experience where everything is taken care of, I wholeheartedly recommend EasyWays. Their expertise and thoughtful planning made this one of the most memorable trips of my life!

Had a fantastic experience using EasyWays Walking Scotland earlier this year. Highly recommend this company.
From start to finish, everything ran so smoothly. The accommodations were lovely and we couldn't fault the selection EasyWays booked for us. We will definitely book with them again.

I do treks almost every year since 2005, i have seen all types of services some very good some less. Easyways is not one of the best and why:
1. Payments are made in a way that you do not know exactly what you will get until after you pay, you get a general program and then refunds are not easyways. read the small letters!!
2. In case of no accommodation, they offer a transport with bus or taxi to a different location. in our case taxi was delayed for a very long time ended in very late arrival to the gust house.
3. In accurate place of the first luggage pickup

From planning our West Highland Way walk months ago to the very end, Easyways (especially Jackie) were exceptionally friendly, helpful and efficient. Every stage of the walk went perfectly, even on the day our tired legs made us very late for meeting Ian the patient driver (please thank him, Jackie). We recommend Easyways unreservedly!

Poor accommodatiin on the Moray Firth Walk. Failed to pick up my suitcase for our last day walking the Great Glen Way - didn't bother to speak to hotel staff despite picking up two suitcases every other day. Rang Easyways who just gave the mobile number for the driver. Neither got back to me. Accommodation away from the beginning and end of each day's walking - other walkers were in hotels etc without the extra walking. Hosts really rated but overall overpriced and let down by poor service when it was needed.
Together with a friend, I have undertaken numerous self-guided long distance walks over the past 10 years or so. We originally found Easyways through an internet search and are very pleased that we did so. The procedure is very straightforward - just select your itinerary and they do the rest for a reasonable fee. All accommodation, bag transfer etc. is arranged and a Tour Pack is sent out, with all the information, including how to find the accommodation, where to eat and drink and so on.
We have been very happy with the standard of accommodation over the years.
The staff at Easyways are great to deal with - friendly and helpful and the whole process is entirely painless.
In a nutshell, we automatically turn to Easyways when considering a long walk - wouldn't go anywhere else!
