Would consider working with you again and recommending you to others

October 10, 2024

Thank you for this request. The following are some reflections on our experience working with River & Green and the trip itself.

• You and Ian provided excellent support and service as we went through the process of considering our trip to Scotland and adapting to our various needs and changes. I don’t think we have worked with any travel company more responsive. It helped tremendously in both convincing us you were the right people to work with and in our confidence regarding the trip itself.

• We thoroughly enjoyed experiencing all aspects of Scotland, from the highlands, to Edinburgh, to the borderlands. It is truly a beautiful country.

• Overall, our accommodations were excellent. However, the Edinburgh hotel was a bit of an outlier. Given we were traveling with a lot of luggage, having to go to a higher floor to check in was a bit of a struggle. The hotel was not particularly helpful in volunteering assistance to get luggage to our rooms. The attendant on the group floor was very nice, but his job apparently was not to actually assist people in getting to check-in. Otherwise, service was generally good and they were helpful in our efforts to recover an item we left behind in the highlands.

• The tours arranged by River & Green were wonderful.

• The driver you arranged for us was fantastic — informative and very accommodating.

• The fishing experience at the loch was excellent, despite the last minute location change. The weather did not cooperate particularly (after all, it is Scotland), but the guides/guiles were excellent — very much focused on helping assure we had an enjoyable experience.

• This was, unfortunately, not the case when we spent two days on the river. The guide seemed to take to an extreme the idea that we wouldn’t need much assistance. While we all fly fish a fair amount, the absence of any guidance on flies or fishing approaches was surprising and one got the impression he viewed his role as simply providing us access to the water. I believe he is an acquaintance of Ian’s and my comments are not intended to disparage. But he really did not provide for a positive experience.

• The worst of our experience was arranging for rental cars. River & Green indicated this should be arranged through our other travel agent, which we did. But it was truly a nightmare — finding the rental car locations, accessing the location, returning the cars was all a very negative experience (time consuming and frustrating). None, for example, would deliver or pick up cars at the hotels at which we were staying. Contrast this with our experience in London where the company brought the cars to and picked up the cars from the hotels at which we stayed. Perhaps the rental car ‘challenge’ is why River & Green does not deal with them. But, if you could replicate the English experience, though, you would create high customer satisfaction.

My final comment is that we were surprised not to hear from anyone at River & Green during our stay or for an extended period after. It would have been a nice touch to contact us early on to welcome us and assure everything was proceeding well and then following up within a few days of our return. It would have complemented the nice, personal touch we felt working with you in the set-up process.

All the above being said, we would consider working with you again, should interest arise, and recommending you to others. Hopefully, the above will be received as constructive input for future consideration.

With best regards,

Tom and Kathy

10 out of 10 - Awesome trip with River & Green!!!

October 8, 2024

Ian and Alex’ planning and customer service with our 3-week Scotland trip was PERFECT from beginning to end!!!

Trip Highlights – they booked wonderful rooms, arranged for meals at Hotels, drove us from Hotel to rental car, scheduled 8 ferry crossing’s, arranged 3 fly-fishing trip’s on beautiful Lochs and River with superb guides, provided outstanding travel recommendations along our travel routes and at our destinations, and provided route maps to include time estimates for automobile travel and ferry crossing’s, etc., etc.

In addition, they kept in touch with us as changes occurred before we left and during trip.

Every facet of their efforts from planning to execution was FIRST CLASS!!!

They are the BEST – Highly, Highly Recommend!!!

In short, we enjoyed this father and son trip immensely

October 4, 2024

Hi Alex,

We are back in Holland and can look back on a fantastic week in Scotland.

All my expectations were met and you as an organization deserve a big compliment.

Fishing was a great experience, even though we didn’t catch anything. Clay pigeon shooting was a must to get a feel for a gun. The highlight though was hunting in the Scottish countryside where we also shot a partridge.

The whisky tasting was interesting, even though the hotel also gave us several whisky varieties to taste.

What a fantastic castle hotel it is, with swimming pool and sauna and great breakfast and dinner options.

In short, we enjoyed this father and son trip immensely.

Thank you very much!

Vriendelijke groet,

J Bikker

Amazing Stress Free Trip

September 20, 2024

Scotland is an amazing place to visit, and River and Green made the entire trip process so easy and stress free. The lodging was excellent, the golfing was spectacular, and the fishing experience was very nice. They were extremely quick to respond to questions and referrals for where to eat dinner / hikes / distilleries / etc. The entire process was so easy. Highly recommend using them.

Golf and Fish

September 17, 2024

R&G exceeded all our expectation for our trip to Scotland. All the lodging recommendation where exceptional. The golf was made easy with tee times and caddies and the fishing was fabulous. Could not have done this trip without their expertise.

Great 2nd trip with River and Green

September 15, 2024

Hello Ian,

This was our second trip with River and Green. We were so impressed with the first trip (bird hunting, fishing and sightseeing), that we knew we would go with River and Green on our second. Itinerary was great and the hotels were spectacular. We fished several days with Ian and did very well with the Brown trout (happy to send pictures). Great to return to several of the hotels we visited on the first trip. Driving the NC500 and the Bealach na Bà through Applecross was a great experience. Ferries to Skye and Harris were a lot of fun also and your help with these arrangements proved excellent. We are planning another trip in 2026 to shoot some grouse and a stag. Thanks for helping us with a great trip!

exceptionnelle

September 10, 2024

Cher Ian,

Nous tenons à vous remercier pour notre tout premier voyage à travers l’Écosse en août 2024, en utilisant les services de River & Green pour permettre à Gary de pêcher à la mouche sur trois des quatre grandes rivières, et pour nous avoir mis en relation avec LR Executive pour le véhicule, dont le confort a rendu nos déplacements à travers la magnifique campagne et les villes si agréables.

Aux États-Unis, nous avons contacté les spécialistes du voyage k fitzgerald, avec qui nous avons voyagé à de nombreuses reprises. Ils ont coordonné avec votre société, River & Green, en Écosse, ce qui a permis à Gary de vivre l’expérience de la pêche au saumon à la mouche qu’il désirait tant, tandis que j’ai pu découvrir les lieux qui m’intéressaient dans votre magnifique campagne. Comme je l’ai suggéré lors de nos journées de visites ensemble, Gary a pu découvrir et voir plus que la pêche sur les meilleurs parcours que vous avez organisés pour lui, ce qui a effectivement conduit à sa belle prise sur la rivière Dee, avec Angus comme guide. Veuillez remercier Angus, encore une fois !

Notre chauffeur quotidien, assidu et agréable, Colin Shillito, mérite des éloges pour sa vaste connaissance historique. Visiter les superbes attractions touristiques suggérées par River & Green et découvrir tous ces endroits fabuleux hors du commun qui m’intéressaient a été un vrai miracle ! Nous vous remercions également d’avoir pris le temps de nous rencontrer au musée de Perth. Nous aurions aimé discuter plus longtemps, mais nous avons vraiment apprécié nos échanges et cet après-midi agréable.

En fait, il semble qu’un voyage de retour soit en cours de planification pour 2025. Gary aimerait y retourner pour pêcher à la mouche avec une canne à une main sur les plus petits affluents des régions centrales et nord de l’Écosse que nous avons visitées en août 2024. Veuillez commencer à explorer ces possibilités pour lui.

Les organisations River & Green et LR méritent des éloges pour l’excellence de leur choix de personnel et d’endroits, rendant ces vacances en Écosse “exceptionnelles” et bien au-delà de tout ce que nous aurions pu imaginer.

Caught my first ever Salmon, THANKS R&G

September 4, 2024

This past July was my first time in Scotland and my first time fly fishing for Salmon. The entire experience of working with R&G, from initial conversations to arriving on-site at the beautiful accommodations and fishing with our guide (Big shout-out to Angus), could not have gone smoother. The whole experience was beyond my expectations (not just fishing but Scotland and their warm/friendly people) and I can’t wait to come back again in the future.
