A 12-Night Tour for Soul Family (You know who you are!)
Come with me on a heart-opening journey as we experience the magic of Scotland through history, connection, music and ritual. This tour will be a combination of some must-see sites as well as out of the way treasures. The final itinerary will be sent a month before travel, but here's a first draft of our travels….
Itinerary
3 nights in Edinburgh
This city is a gothic delight with loads of history and hauntings as well as breathtaking beauty. As a group, we will visit some famous sites such as Edinburgh Castle, Greyfriar’s Kirkyard and Underground Edinburgh and explore more of the culture and sights during the day with free time to choose things on your own as well. We’ll also make the short trip to Rosslyn Chapel and Glen which is always a tour favorite.
3 nights in Dunkeld
Before heading to Dunkeld, we will detour to beautiful Loch Lomond, for a guided cruise and scenic spot for lunch. Weather-permitting, we take a short drive to brave the steep hike down to an ancient meeting place of druids. With new adventures in our hearts, we travel on to the lovely village of Dunkeld which sits on the banks of the River Tay. From here, we meander small villages, take in waterfall hikes, hear world class music and more.
3 nights in Inverness
This city on the river is one of Scotland’s prettiest places and it’s a short drive to Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle. We will also visit Clava Cairns Stone Circle and Findhorn, take in a castle or two as we explore this beautiful part of the Highlands. Free time in this lovely city will give you choices such as Inverness Castle, Cathedral, High Street church and cemetery, the iconic Leakey's Bookshop, River stroll and Botanic Gardens.
2 nights on the Isle of Skye
The Isle of Skye is known for its rugged landscapes, medieval castles, picturesque fishing villages, it's history and the outstanding scenery. We plan some gorgeous hikes on the island that will invariably inspire ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhhs’ and we will visit the Fairy Pools, castles and distilleries and you'll also have free time to shop, explore and enjoy.
Final night back in Edinburgh
On the way back to Edinburgh, we drive through Glencoe, with some of the most beautiful views in Scotland. We will make some scenic stops and visit the Fairy Bridge for contemplation in this otherworldly place.
