Scotland Tours From Edinburgh

We know Scotland like the back of our hands and we love showing off our country to people from around the world.

Over time we’ve designed incredible itineraries showcasing Scotland’s most beautiful natural wonders, and of course giving you a taste of what it means to be Scottish.

We reserve hostel beds for you when you book a tour with us! Hostel beds sell out fast… especially over the summer months. We ensure you get a reserved bed while on tour at a fair price.

We even keep aside a special space for you at the Castle Rock Hostel in Edinburgh the night before and after all 5 day tours just in case you need a place to stay!

The MacBackpackers Guarantee

We believe the best tour memories come from going on tour with likeminded people.

That’s why we’ve created tours with a strict age policy of 18-39 to make sure we can create active, fun tours with people around your age! So if you’re looking for a tour with other young people where you can make new friends for life… then choose a MacBackpackers tour!
