Places to visit in Scotland

Scotland vacations are about contrast. One day, you might be exploring historic, arty Edinburgh; the next, you might find yourself in the untamed wilderness of the Highlands, hiking and looking out over deep, inscrutable lochs (lakes). Our specialists have a thorough knowledge of this majestic, highly individual corner of northern Europe. We’re able to recommend everything from which whisky distilleries to visit, to the most scenic points on the far-flung Isle of Skye. They can also suggest what to see and do in Scotland’s characterful cities and towns, from the castles and coast of Inverness to the churches (and golf courses) of St Andrews.

Scotland’s fiercely independent spirit shines through its cultural traditions, food and mountainous Highland scenery. Our specialists have explored some of its most remote scenic corners as well as its cities, and can suggest how to make the most of your time here.
