Spend Easter on Skye

With MacBackpackers!

The Isle of Skye is Scotland’s most famous island with good reason. This gem of the Inner Hebrides has inspired poets, artists and songwriters for generations with its incredible views; rich history and captivating mythology. It’s a magical place to visit and there’s no better way to understand the incredible beauty of this place than with one of our Scottish Tour Guides to embellish every second of your visit.

Our Easter 3 Day Isle of Skye Tour is the perfect way to spend your Easter Break. Enjoy meeting a busload of young people who have decided to spend their weekend exploring our beautiful home as we take you on a totally unserious trip around some of the country’s “must-see” locations.

While most tour companies only spend a day on Skye, we spend a full 36 hours so you really get to know Scotland’s most famous Isle.

Spend your Easter with us, spend it on the Easter 3 Day Isle of Skye!

Running Only on 18 April 2025!

Where we stay

On this tour you’ll be lucky enough to stay at the beautiful Lochbuie Guest House in the small fishing village of Kyleakin, just over the Skye Bridge. This small guest house is reserved exclusively for our tour guests, so you don’t have to worry about trying to find accommodation in the Highlands for your trip (no mean feat)

The hostel consists of bunk beds, a full kitchen, hot showers, a games room and your accommodation costs will include breakfast in the morning. So settle in and enjoy the quirky colours and great views from Lochbuie as you relive your day in the Highlands!

Check out our Where We Stay Page to learn more!

T&Cs

Our Tours are for 18-39 Year Olds Only
Our company was founded out of the hostel industry and we have a focus on providing young people with the chance to explore Scotland affordably, make new friends and have an active style of tour. That’s why we have strictly limited our age range to 18-39 in order to provide our guests with the best possible tour and give everyone the chance to experience Scotland in a way not many tours can.

Accommodation is not included in the price of our tours
We understand that it’s extremely difficult to find accommodation in the Highlands, which is why every person on one of our tours has a bed provisionally held for them at each of our partner hostels along the route. All nights are priced from £34 per night including breakfast and are available as an add-on to your tour in the options section of the booking window.

You are welcome to pay for this upfront during your tour booking or at your departure point (Castle Rock Hostel) on your departure date.

Reviews of 3 Day Isle of Skye

Was a fantastic trip and managed to fit a lot into a three day tour! Really enjoyed it and definitely came at the perfect time. Hope to come back to Skye again as so much I probably didn’t see. The tour guide Neil was superb and his knowledge of the area and the tales told on the journey elevated this trip. Thanks for a perfect January break!

Charlie, Tour Radar

This was an amazing trip. Surprised that I got to see so much in 3 days. Also didn’t feel rushed at all. The accommodation was nice and cosy. Kyleakin is a beautiful place to stay. Good decision Macbackpackers! The guide Dave was a gem of a guy. Funny easy going and all round amazing! Plans the day really well even though it feels like roaming around with your mates without a plan. We went for awesome walks and Dave gives you so much space and options. Highly recommended!

Vishakh, Tour Radar
I would said that this was one of the most unique, beautiful, fulfilling experiences I had ever done. Please don’t hesitate to book this tour with MacBackpackers just do it and allow yourself to live this magical experience. Thank you so much Tim you were the most incredible guide. Your knowledge about Scotland, the unique hikes and trails and your amazing sense of humor. And of course the whiskey shots. Thank you for this experience MacBackpackers!

Team Macbagpackers arranged the best trip ever. I want to highlight particularly they have exceptional customer service, Due a confusion I missed their tour and was 40mins late, but the staff were so understanding and took me in a separate car and patched me up with the group. I believe no tour company would go that far to help their customers and they have the best customer satisfaction.

Guarav, Tour Radar

Amazing trip with these guys, had a lot of fun exploring scotland. We went for a 3 day trip. Our guide Branka is a gem, lovely person, full of energy. The hostel stays were good, the pace of tour was also good. Enjoyed overall.

Go for a 5 day trip if you can.

Amit P, Trip Advisor

3 day tour was great way to see the highlands / Isle of Skye, if I had more time I would definitely do the 5 day tour. Our tour guide Branca was awesome! Very knowledgeable about the history, folklore and best photo spots. We would only be in the bus for an hour & a half max at any one time, plenty of stops. Absolutely loved it!
