what are they like?

the Americas, the Outer Hebrides are a complete mystery to many people.
A

over a total distance of around 130 miles. Eleven islands are
permanently populated and about a third of the people live within ten
miles or so of Stornoway, the 'capital' town. of the Western Isles.
Wherever
you travel, you'll find the modern essentials of life -
reliable transport, power and telecommunications - including
a
highly sohisticated wireless broadband network.

landscapes and culture vary widely and our journeys through the islands
help you capture a flavour of each, while enjoying the wonderful,
friendly hospitality for which the Outer Hebrides is so well known.

transport costs for the same distances as the ferry sailings - they are
generally referred to as RET fares (Road Equivalent Tariff).
