Luxury Scotland Tour: Private Guided

Your Deluxe Scotland Tour begins at Edinburgh Airport, where your private driver will collect you. You'll be driven to The Balmoral, the 5-star hotel where you’ll be staying for three nights. You’ll be offered a private walking tour of Edinburgh with your very own guide. Walk up the Royal Mile, and feel the charm of the city as you inch towards the Castle at the top of the road. Descend the cobblestone streets that connect you to Princes Street. If you’re feeling like a proper hike, watch the sunset atop Arthur’s Seat: an extinct volcano that towers over Edinburgh. 

Next, your private driver will take you north towards the city of Inverness. On your way, you’ll stop in the charming old town of St. Andrews, which is home to the world’s oldest golf course. A private guided tour of the town, as well as the nearby Scone Palace (one of the finest Georgian Gothic palaces in all of Great Britain) is included in your tour package. 

After a wonderful day in St. Andrews and Scone Palace, you’ll arrive in Inverness, where you’ll spend two nights. Take your chance at spotting “Nessie” on your own private guided boat tour of Loch Ness, stopping along the magical Urquhart Castle as you explore these murky waters. In the afternoon, walk along the River Ness, passing boatyards and woods as you go, and explore the heart of this quaint city. If you like to dance, be sure to participate in an evening hootenanny: a dance where kilts swirl to the sound of stomping feet.  

Your Luxury Scotland Tour continues with a westerly journey to the incredible Isle of Skye, which we guarantee will be a highlight of your trip. Alongside your private guide, you will tour the northerly part of the enchanting island, with its rugged landscape and jagged peaks. If you like Whisky, be sure to try a dram of locally made Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky—the local specialty—at an old crofter’s pub in the evening. You’ll look back fondly on the two nights spent here. 

After Skye, your private driver will take you to Torlundy, the ideal town to explore Fort William from and its surrounding nature. If you love hiking and the great outdoors, grab your hiking boots and hit Ben Nevis, breathing in the fresh air as you explore through the trees. In the evening, soothe your adventurous spirit with a pint after and some freshly caught mussels at a local restaurant in town. 

Finish your Luxury Scotland Tour with a bang in Glasgow. If you’re interested in art, start your final day with a dose of art at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery, and walk through 22 galleries of different contemporary art. Alternatively, if you’re interested in transport, we recommend heading to the Riverside Museum which is home to the Glasgow Museum of Transport.
