8-Nights Scotland's Wild Highlands & Islands

Explore Rugged Coast, Ancient Forest & Windswept Moors in Britain's Last Great Wilderness

Scotland has long held a wild allure in Britain. Its heather-clad Highlands and far-flung Western Isles have drawn adventurous travelers for centuries. In summer, days stretch toward nearly perpetual light, nurturing a flurry of life in the Hebrides Isles off Scotland’s northwest coast. Millions of seabirds nest in some of the largest rookeries in the world, while whales, seals and dolphins feed in clear Atlantic waters warmed by the Gulf Stream. Exploring the coves and cliffs of the Outer Hebrides, we also find remnants of ancient human presence, from Iron Age stone forts to embellished Celtic crosses. Inland, explore native Caledonian pine forest, heathered moors and silver lochs of the rugged Highlands, home to elusive wildlife including the magnificent Scottish red deer. In mystical Scotland, the wild still reigns in Europe!
