Grand Tour of Scotland
Grand Tour of Scotland
The Grand Tour of Scotland itinerary takes you around the country in a 7 to 14 day trip taking in the Highlands, the Lowlands, cities, towns, villages, dramatic coastline and at least one island. The following is a sample itinerary for guidance only, I can make up a schedule incorporating the places you want to visit and the sights I think you should not miss! Remember tours can start and/or finish anywhere in Scotland or the UK, in the sample itinerary below I have used Edinburgh purely as an example. I recommend booking this tour well in advance as availability reduces quite early in the year.

This sample itinerary can be lengthened or shortened to suit your own criteria. To shorten the itinerary I can remove certain days which can be leapfrogged and to lengthen it I can add in more islands to the schedule or one or two 'free days' (see below).
For every seven booked days (minimum) of touring I offer my clients the option of a free day - ideal if you want to spend a full day in a particular place, to explore on foot, take a boat trip, go shopping, or just to relax. This is effectively a day off for me, and there is no charge to you for this, other than my overnight expenses. Your free day can be taken anytime after the third day of a 7+ multi-day itinerary and the second free day can be taken anytime after the ninth day of a 14+ multi-day trip.
I can recommend and, if required book accommodation and restaurants for you at no extra cost.
