Informative and enjoyable Really enjoyed our walk! Our guide was very informative and was great with our 1 year old. Despite the rain, we loved every minute of it.

Marwick Head Walk Megan guided us along Marwick Head and shared fascinating insights about the seabirds as well as the local plant life. The three-hour walk flew by and was both enjoyable and informative. We highly recommend Orkney Walks to anyone visiting the Orkney Islands.

Puffins Megan's 1 day Puffin Experience on Westray was great. We saw Puffins up close, and learned about Puffins and the other seabirds in the area and while on the ferry. Megan had spare binoculars for us. We also learned about the wild flowers while walking to the cliffs. We also visited a beautiful sandy beach. We learned how precious and fragile the existence of seabirds is. Megan is passionate about the environment.

Fantastic access to hundreds of puffins Our trip to Westray to see puffins amongst many other species of birds was really successful. The natural feature of the Castle of Burrian provides a great nesting spot for hundreds of puffins and we saw so many of them extremely close up. Our guide Megan was impressively knowledgeable of all the flora and fauna we saw and shared this in a friendly and humourous way. It was a great chance to slow down and really absorb the detail of the stunning surroundings of the island of Westray. Megan is completely in tune with her natural environment and offers you a chance to get onto this wavelength too. Would recommend.

Amazing birdwatching in the Orkney sunshine We had a wonderful day spent with Megan on Westray at two very different seabird colonies, watching the kittiwakes, guillemots, fulmars and gannets at one place then over to a large puffin colony for the second. Megan was very knowledgeable and really knew not just where to find the birds but when and how to avoid the larger groups around in July. She had prepared a detailed itinerary and personalised folder for us, booked the ferries and sorted out all the other admin ahead, so all we had to do we meet her and enjoy the birds. We even managed to do this a a few hours of precious sunshine. Amazing!!

Guided walk on Graemsay: birds, plants, insects and more Megan guided us around Graemsay and showed us wildlife of all sorts. The skylarks were numerous and stunning. In a disused quarry we saw damselflies. Megan explained everything from microhabitats of butterflies to big context like the impact of cruise ships or salmon farming. We would join one of her tours again and can really recommend her.

Memorable Day in Orkney I went on the Shapinsay and ultimate Puffin tour with Megan. She is very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable as a beginner with the birds. It’s obvious that she loves what she does and takes extreme pride in organizing the tours. This was definitely a highlight of my time in Orkney. Ray

Must do! Fantastic experience A fantastic experience with Megan. We did the evening walk and saw so many birds including puffins. Megan is so passionate about wildlife, she was a joy to spend time with. We learned so much about birds, flowers, wildlife and also Orkney. It was fun, relaxed and informative. Our 17yo son was in his element getting so many great photo opportunities. Thank you Megan! Highly recommend.

Best day EVER!

NEW – The Ultimate Puffin Experience

Best day EVER! Day trip to Westray to see the puffins but fell in love with fulmars. Megan tailors her commentary to you. If you show an interest in something, you’ll find out how much she knows, but if you want to sit quietly with the birds, there’s space for that too. She has a deep and genuine love for the natural world and it was a very rewarding say in her company. Heartily recommend it. We’d love to visit another island with her.

A very enjoyable day

NEW – The Ultimate Puffin Experience

We had an amazing time on the Ultimate Puffin experience yesterday and saw hundreds of puffins, including close up. We also learned a lot about the flowers, plants and other birds, as a result of Megan’s extensive knowledge. A very enjoyable day. Highly recommended!.

Megan was very knowledgeable and interesting

Evening Wildlife Walk

We both really enjoyed our walk with Megan. It was exciting to see the Scottish primrose for the first time and other plants like mountain everlasting and arrow grass and creeping willow – real contrasts to plants nearer home. Megan was very knowledgeable and interesting and even managed to find us a close up puffin! Thank you

Plenty to see

NEW – Seabird City Experience

Accessible on 8S bus. Plenty to see, some birds that I would have missed without Megan’s help Shelduck and eider with chicks. Plenty of plants, some edible, plus painted lady butterflies. And we saw puffins! I also enjoyed a day out on Graemsay with Megan. Many thanks.

An amazing learning experience

Mull Head Wildlife Walk

I thoroughly enjoyed this leisurely walk around Mull Head. Megan was so easy to talk to and was so informative about the wildlife. It was an amazing learning experience for me in bird & plant identification, and it was quite special to stop for lunch sitting opposite a cliff with nesting puffins!

Great and informative walk

Evening Wildlife Walk

Great and informative walk, saw plenty of birds in what is probably ordinary Orkney weather! Megan was very knowledgeable.
