There will also be a wee welcome evening that you can come along to at 6pm and meet us and your fellow travellers.

Jump aboard the MacBackpackers bus and explore one of Scotland's most spectacular islands! Let our guides look after you during the day and enjoy plenty of free time in the evening to explore your new surroundings!

A day to relax (recover!) and enjoy New Years day with your new found friends. A day to spend however you choose.

It's time to check out your hostel, but panic not, if you've enjoyed yourself so much and not ready to leave us yet, just ask at reception and they'll try their best to accommodate you for longer.
