Fantastic knitting tour to Shetland Well organised tour to the Shetland Islands. The tour guide was very knowledgable about where we travelled and some of the history of Shetland. The bus driver was courteous and helpful at all times and willing to go out of his way, as time allowed, to give us the opportunity to see other things. The workshops were run by very talented women who shared their skill and knowledge in a way we could all benefit. The other tourist places were visited were in keeping with the theme of fibre and were interesting even for non knitters. I have come home with wonderful memories and new skills.

Fantastic Shetland/Scotland Knitting Tour My second review. This was an exceptional tour from beginning to end! Detailed descriptions, clear itinerary, specific accommodations, amazing & talented instructors were all carefully planned. There was a comfort built into the tour because of the professional planning. There was always someone to answer any concerns or questions without delay. Our tour guide & driver were so wonderful! They were knowledgeable, prepared, warm & personable & an important part of the success of our experience. It was just so much fun & I would absolutely recommend this trip & am most likely to take another.

5 BIG shiny stars I think having the basics all correct is the start to a good trip. The venues were well researched, the timing from one event to another all worked. It seems like a small thing but with out the basics of the trip being correct nothing could go right. I too if a well organized and executed trip the professionalism friendliness of the Tour staff and designers made the trip extra special. This is my second trip with them and I’m already looking for the third.

Great Scottish Knitting Tour I had a fantastic time on the Scottish Highlands Knitting Tour. I am an avid knitter and a yarn snob. I love fibre, starting from the sheep breeds to processing, (sheering, carding, spinning, dying, etc), to finished products. I also love history and the history of yarn and Scottish clothing. This tour was fantastic in that we went to historic places, we met designers, historians, farmers and artists. We went to shops and villages. My need for information was met. I had lots of time to knit. I met interesting people. I am a retired professional and most people were also retired professionals. The tour guide was really fantastic and our coach driver was also awesome. They had to maneuver us through some very rough weather, and had to shift around workshops and presenters who couldn’t get to us due to road closures. We were safe, well taken care of, and had options available when weather was really miserable. It was great.

Barcelona 2023 This was Knitting Tours first trip to Barcelona, and mine, and it was so well organised and delivered, I had a wonderful time. The balance of knitting, sightseeing and other events was great and the hotel accommodation and staff at Hotel Seventy were all superb. Our tour guide, Anne Marie Hayes was exceptional both in her organisational ability and knowledge. Thoroughly recommend Knitting Tours and this trip in particular.
