- Sally R32 contributionsFantastic wee sports car which entirely fulfilled our best hopes for great driving on beautiful roadsWhat an amazing experience we had driving the Lotus Elise on outstanding Scottish roads through the very best of Scottish landscapes. And, almost unbelievably, in brilliant weather with roof off the whole way! Wonderful car. Totally fantastic experience and a fabulous surprise 60th birthday present. The WildTrax team were incredibly helpful and facilitated delivery of the car so that it was there on the birthday morning as a surprise. All straightforward and hassle free and altogether a fabulous day!Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 19 September 2023

The customer service and the whole team was absolutely splendid and quick at answering emails and accommodating requests.

- Jason D2 contributionsAmazing Experience Exploring the Highlands of Scotland!What an amazing few days exploring the highlands of Scotland driving WildTrax’s new Land Rover Defender 110 in February. From Inverness on the east coast to the tips of the Isle of Skye on the west coast and beyond. Great vehicle, well maintained, immaculately clean and perfect choice of vehicle for touring the Highlands with the family. Amazing customer service, very helpful, great communication, friendly and welcoming. Whilst planning my trip and throughout, WildTrax couldn’t be helpful enough, nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend WildTrax for a 4x4 driving experience around Scotland and will be returning in the future. A great choice of Land Rovers to choose from, maybe next time we’ll be camping on the NC500! Thank you WildTrax!Visited February 2024Travelled with familyWritten 3 March 2024

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Three blokes, a tooled-up Discovery, and miles of open road... adventure awaited!
First off, Wildtrax are a fantastic crew for facilitating such a fantastic experience! The lads and I had been wanting to attempt an epic road trip for years, and since booking in March we’d been raring to go. The Wildtrax crew made sure we were fully informed of the ins and outs of Highland travel, gave us a good overview of the vehicle on arrival, and made sure we were ok throughout.
The Discovery is a very capable vehicle, and comes stocked with the necessary kit to keep occupants going during their travels. We only needed to turn up with clothes, food, and a spare tent (the roof one fits 2x adults). The truck is surprisingly cosy, despite its outward appearance, and keeps you feeling secure at all times.
The included kit is extensive, ranging from plush bedding for the roof tent to collapsible kitchen sink, and even collapsible chairs (x2) and dining table! This all fits into the spacious boot area, with enough cargo storage left over for supplies and personal kit.
The roof tent is *so* simple to set up, as demonstrated by the Wildtrax crew, and is incredibly comfortable. The only slight concern was during a strong storm on our first night, though it held up well and the occupants were kept warm & dry! The telescopic ladder entry seems a little iffy in first try, but is totally robust & fit for purpose.
We managed to get across to Applecross via mainland Britain’s most elevated road, see the sights of the Cairngorms and take in John O’Groats, before getting back to HQ within our 4 day/3 night trek! Overall a wonderful experience that we’d love to do again! Thanks Wildtrax!

We have just returned from a 5 day NC500 trip using the Defender 110. Every part of the process with WildTrax was simple, from booking to collection and drop off. Nothing is too much bother, communication was easy and the staff were really friendly and helpful. The vehicles have everything you will need for your trip to be self sufficient and is all high quality equipment. I can't recommend WildTrax enough, good prices and unlimited mileage! Will definitely be back in future.

We took a WildTrax Defender on the North Coast 500 for 7 nights in early May. The service, car and kit were all great. It was so much fun driving the single track lanes in the Defender and setting up camp each night was quick and comfortable. Can't recommend enough.

Hired the New Defender for a week and couldn't have had a better experience from booking through to returning at the end.
All the staff were most helpful in helping make our trip fantastic and went above and beyond to rectify damaged kit from a previous hire.
The Land Rover has everything you could possibly need for a trip of any kind, no matter how remote. The large awning makes a big difference when the weather is less than ideal and has plenty of space as well as being very sturdy.
Whether it's the New Defender or the 90/110, I would definitely recommend Wildtrax for a great trip.

We had a great family road trip for 3 days on the North Coast 500 and were fortunate to enjoy wonderful weather. The tent on the roof was a great design and very easy to use. We chose to stay on campsites to use the facilities and we enjoyed all the stops we made at John O’Groats, Clacktoll Beach and Sands Camping near Gairloch. The driving position in the new Defender is excellent and a great way to see the wonderful scenery. The staff at WildTrax were very helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Absolutely brilliant company with an amazing fleet of land rovers (old and new) with great camping attachments. Me and a few of the lads rented 2 to do the NC500 (more like 900 for us) and had the best times on the roads camping across Scotland. 10/10 experience, service and fantastic people. Can only recommend and praise!

Excellent experience! My wife and I used a Defender 110 for a week during our honeymoon. We loved it. The camper setup was awesome, the car worked perfectly, very tough and reliable. Looked great, the tent and awning and dinner kit worked great. Very fun, memorable way to get around. We saw many other green Defenders on our drive, including at the royal house Balmoral, so clearly WildTrax is in good company. We drove from Inverness to Balmoral and Aberdeen (to see Crathes Castle, where some of my ancestors lived), then over to Applecross and up to Ullapool and Scouries. Loved driving the back roads. Thanks, Rose and James.
