Widely regarded as the ‘Oscars of tourism’, the World Travel Awards was introduced in 1993 and celebrate excellence across all key sectors of tourism, hospitality and travel.
Rabbie’s was founded by Robin Worsnop in Edinburgh in 1993 and began as a ‘one man, one van’ adventure.
Today, the tour operator offers small-group tours with guaranteed departures from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness, Aviemore, Aberdeen, London, Manchester, York, Bristol, Bath, Killarney, and Dublin. Its scheduled tours also span mainland Europe, including Italy and Switzerland.

Hazel Rickett, CEO at Rabbies, said: “It’s an absolute honour to be nominated for two incredible awards from the World Travel Awards, particularly for Scotland’s Leading Tour Operator 2026 and Europe’s Leading Group Tour Operator 2026, and to be recognised alongside some of the very best in the industry.
“These nominations are a reflection of the passion and dedication of our entire team, from our expert driver-guides to the people behind the scenes who work hard to create unforgettable travel experiences.
“At Rabbie’s, we’re proud to offer a more personal and immersive way to explore, helping travellers connect with the places they visit in a meaningful way. We’re incredibly grateful to our customers and partners for their continued support, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.”
