Scotland Day Tours

Land of the Brave

Whether you’re hiking the majestic Highlands or exploring the bustling cities, Scotland’s Celtic culture and hearty hospitality await you on a day tour. Visit the historic capital of Edinburgh, stop in the storied and soulful Glasgow, or venture into the rugged beauty of the Cairngorms and you’re bound to encounter Scotland’s sensational spirit. Listen to the bellowing bagpipes, participate in the Ceilidh, or garner a few words of Gaelic, Scotland’s Celtic language, from friendly locals.

Glasgow, Scotland’s second city, has a gritty industrial history that has been tempered by its contemporary status as home to a world-class arts scene, creating a unique charm that is sure to leave you spellbound. Take a bicycle tour to learn about Glasgow’s history as a merchant city as you ride alongside the River Clyde, the waterway responsible for the development of the city as a trading hub. Your bicycle tour will lead you to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, home to a diverse collection of art and artifacts, as well as to Glasgow Cathedral, an impressive medieval structure with stunning stained-glass windows and intricate architecture. Round off your ride at the Glasgow Necropolis, a Victorian cemetery that offers panoramic views of the city.

  Edinburgh is Scotland’s capital and is divided between the Old Town and the New Town. Visit Edinburgh Castle, perched on an ancient volcanic rock, and feel the weight of centuries of history as you pedal through the Old Town. Enjoy a change of pace as you approach the New Town, where a bike tour will lead you past handsome Georgian townhouses and the red sandstone facade of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.

  Beyond Scotland’s cities, the rugged beauty of the country’s rural regions awaits. Venture to the mystical Isle of Skye and discover ancient castles and historic ruins, or head into the Highlands for panoramic views from some of the highest plateaus in the United Kingdom.
