Gaby is phenomenal. We went on a 4-day, 3 night hike in the Cairngorms. She was a calm leader, taking weather and danger seriously but letting us all determine our own comfort levels. She arranged all rental gear and provided food. All was perfect. She was great with our teenagers.

My daughter and I just took a bucket list trip to Scotland, and our hike with Gaby was the highlight!! She took us on a beautiful 5-hour hike in Trossachs National Park and was incredibly mindful of my physical limitations. She was so thoughtful, and never made me feel bad for being such a slow hiker! Our favorite part was the foraging lessons and plant identification! She really got to know our interests and by the end of the hike we both felt like we’d made a new friend!
