Guided hillwalking. I found the process of booking easy and very quick.
My guide, Tom, was knowledgeable and patient with me, I really enjoyed the experience.
Highly recommended

Absolutely brilliant We booked a guided trip to climb The Inaccessible Pinnacle. Communication with the company has been great throughout and our guide, Dave was absolutely brilliant. He was patient, encouraging and so positive all the way. The experience was really challenging and exhilarating. We would highly recommend the company and in particular Dave. We couldn’t have had a better experience. Thank you so much.

Guided walk - An Teallach, over the pinnacles I had an absolutely wonderful time on An Teallach and was so chuffed that I managed it all. We had a total inversion that lasted all day & saw a Brocken Spectre. What could be better, except to be guided by someone whose company was enjoyable, whose knowledge and experience was obvious, and shared willingly, as well as someone who explained everything so comprehensively and made us feel very safe.

Awesome family day climbing in Glen Nevis We had a brilliant family day of climbing, abseiling and scrambling in the sunshine on Ben Nevis. We all loved it - mum, dad and 3 girls, aged 9, 13 and 15. Our guide was excellent. He checked what we were doing thoroughly, made us feel confident and safe and gave us the right levels of challenge and support, depending on our particular skills.

We learnt a lot about the geography and geology of Glen Nevis too. It was an awesome day and we can't wait to do some more next year!

Strongly recommend our guides Our group of four was guided along the Cuillin Ridge across five days by Dave Fowler and Jack Morris. I and my group recommend them to the greatest possible degree.
It was immediately obvious how experienced and qualified both guides were, they were also friendly, and engaged while never taking their eyes from our safety and adapting to the weather and our energy throughout the days.

It was immediately obvious how experienced and qualified both guides were, they were also friendly, and engaged while never taking their eyes from our safety and adapting to the weather and our energy throughout the days.
Together Jack and Dave carefully tailored our routes so as to match our ability levels, offering us the most variety and excitement while keeping us safe.
Both guides were clear communicators and never patronising. They always had time for our questions on mountaineering, the geology of the mountains and the local area but those hiring either of them will find they exceed even this in offering engaging conversation on any topic we threw at them. Forever good humoured but never in your face.
It is rare to come across people like this and I am sure they will help you forge memories as wonderful as ours. read less

Mum & daughter day on the Curved Ridge with guide Sam I’d done a bit of reading about the Curved Ridge in advance and thought it might make a good day out to do with my teenage daughter, as we'd done the Buachaille Etive Mor tops by the tourist route earlier in the year. Descriptions varied wildly, from “easy”, through “easy if you know what you’re doing” to “you might need a rope” and “tricky to find the right route” then... read moreI’d done a bit of reading about the Curved Ridge in advance and thought it might make a good day out to do with my teenage daughter, as we'd done the Buachaille Etive Mor tops by the tourist route earlier in the year. Descriptions varied wildly, from “easy”, through “easy if you know what you’re doing” to “you might need a rope” and “tricky to find the right route” then “you could end up on the Rannoch wall by mistake and die a horrible death”. I don’t have a lot of scrambling experience so decided to hire a guide and a friend recommended West Coast Mountain Guides. Booking was straightforward and our guide Sam contacted me the night before to make the final arrangements to meet.
Sam was absolutely brilliant and although the day was challenging it was fun and we both felt safe enough to commit to each section. We were roped up for most of it and although most of the scrambling was straightforward some of the moves were a bit tricky for a couple of amateurs. Having a rope with somebody competent and reassuring on the other end of it helped enormously. As well as clearly being an expert climber and patient teacher, Sam was a wealth of information on subjects like the geology of the Buachaille. Before we knew it we were near the summit. Having lunch perched on the top of the Crowberry Tower was pretty awesome. It was one of the best mountain days out I've had and my daughter can't wait for our next adventure. Thanks Sam for a fantastic day. read less

A thrilling and well-managed Cuillins course on Skye Excellent excellent excelent. Ee took two guides, Dave Fowler and Jack Morris, to do a five day Black Cuillins course. Our ages ranged from 61 to 23 and Dave and Jack looked after us and our mixed abilities brilliantly. Great company, full of local knowledge and clearly expressed advice, they were a pleasure from beginning to end. Thanks to Ken for organising them and us.
Wonderful

Good overall experience Good overall experience. Very professional and competent, got us up and down the Inaccessible Pinnacle using ropes and harnesses which they provided. I wouldn’t recommend anybody go up there without a competent guide

Innacessible pinnacle made accessible Communication with Ken and the guide was good. Replies were prompt and we were provided with all the info that was requested. Booking was straight forward and easy.
Contacted Dave a couple of days before as thunderstorms were forecast for the day.

As for the day, Dave and Connor were great guides. Proffesional and full of information. They tailored the day to suit our needs and abilities. They really did add to the whole experience.
I would recommend West Coast mountain guides and we will be using them on any future endeavours. read less

Guided ascent of the Inn Pin Booked a mountain guide through West Coast Mountain Guides to do the Inaccessible Pinnacle on Skye. My guide was Sam and we had a fantastic day. He was a brilliant and knowledgeable guide and I always felt in safe hands.
Would recommend.

Skye Cuillins I had the best experience doing the Cuillins last week which is all down to my guide Dave. Extremely knowledgeable, patient and all round great guy. I would definitely recommend Dave and West Coast Mountain Guides to anyone that was looking for a guide.
