Winter day trip from Edinburgh to Holy Island, Alnwick, Bamburgh Castle, and Northumberland, with live commentary in a small group.

“This was a phenomenal trip! Wendy was outstanding, informative and gave such great historical facts throughout the day. It was a long day but didn't feel like it, we had enough stops spread out to provide us breaks from the bus ride and a great opportunity to see so much of Edinburgh and Northern England.”

2.Private Guided Winter Mountaineering Experience in the Cairngorms

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6 reviews · 1 day (approx.) · from $238

Private winter mountaineering in the Cairngorms from Aviemore, with pro coaching, crampons and ice axe skills, and safety-first climbing.

“Sam is the best guide I’ve ever had in my decades of winter mountaineering. He’s the safest guide I know who continuously assesses risks throughout the day. He is also a fantastic teacher — I’ve learned more from him in one day than with others in a week, from seconding to leading techniques for different situations to avalanche assessment. I’ve climbed with him in the summer and winter and he’s the first guide I would go to for any future trips.”
