Celebrating Rabbie’s Travel Award Wins
In the past 30 years, we are proud of the numerous travel awards won when providing small-group tours. But these have never been our main mission. We strive to show you the beautiful landscapes so many get to call home in the UK, Ireland, and Europe. All while travelling responsibly to leave no trace behind.
Secure Your Spot
Securing your spot on our mini-coaches has never been easier. But where to venture first? A Scottish tour around the Highlands? Maybe walk in the footsteps of famous monarchs on a castle tour. How does touring The Lake District sound? Whichever you decide to book first, our driver-guides will be on hand to make your experience special.

Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Awards
The Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards came as a massive surprise. We won four travellers' choice awards in total. One of our tours to Skye was selected as the best multi-day tour in the whole world, and three more of our trips made the top 25 in the top experiences and multi-day tours. It's a fantastic achievement which shows that you and our fans enjoy the extra effort we put into designing our small-group tours.
The British Travel Awards
The British Travel Awards are simply incredible. They’re the largest consumer-voted awards programme in the world, with 867,221 votes and opinions cast by the holidaying public in 2019. So it’s no surprise that we’re proud to have won a Gold Award for the Best Medium Sized Escorted Tour Holiday Company. It's an amazing achievement and we owe you voters a huge 'thank you'.
Silver Green Apple Award
The Green Apple Awards celebrate environmental practices in business. And we won a silver Green Apple award for our beautiful Scottish Borders tours. The tours brought revenue to local businesses and gave people a chance to discover a less visited part of Scotland.
Silver Thistle Award 2016
Our Chief Executive and founder won the Silver Thistle Award at the ‘Oscars’ of Scottish Tourism. It’s the most coveted award at the Thistle Awards, and recognises an individual’s outstanding contribution to Scotland’s tourism industry. But Robin Worsnop didn’t only win the award for his excellent work with Rabbie’s Trail Burners. He’s provided leadership in all areas of Scottish tourism, from helping set up the Tourism Innovation Group to now being a chairman of ETAG.We’re very proud.
