About this trip

This eleven-day tour takes you through Scotland's history, from medieval castles to villages that have barely changed shape in centuries, alongside the country's dramatic landscapes.

You'll move through Edinburgh, Inverness, the Isle of Skye, Fort William and Glasgow, with Orkney folded into the route as well, mixing city life with wilder, quieter corners.

It's a small group setup with a private room, so you get proper rest between days without giving up the shared, guided experience.
