Itinerary

Day 1
Arrival Day

Arrival to Edinburgh

Welcome to Edinburgh, Scotlands staggering and stunning capital!


We will provide detailed instructions and options on how to get to the hotel from the airport. As passengers arrive at different times, everyone can make their own way to the city centre hotel, check in, get settled and unwind until the welcome dinner. Relax, or take this moment to acquaint yourself with the nearby shops, cafes and pubs.


Accommodation check-in - Frederick House Hotel

Welcome Dinner and Music - The Outsider

Bruce will meet you in the hotel lobby and will walk you all to a nearby restaurant, where you will enjoy your first meal as a group. The Outsider is in the heart of the old town and is a great space with spectacular views across Edinburgh. It has incredible locally sourced ingredients and tries to source everything as close to Edinburgh as possible. 


Take this as a great opportunity to try some traditional Scottish haggis, local ales and craft lagers. This will be a relaxed moment for us to be properly introduced and for Bruce to discuss the plan for the coming days on the tour.


After some food, if you feel like staying out longer, we will wander through the Old Town to a cosy pub and enjoy some live music.

Our Unforgettable Journey Through Scotland This was an excellent tour of a stunning country, rich in history and breathtaking landscapes. With a small group of just 14, the experience felt personal, intimate, and wonderfully communal—truly a gathering of like-minded travelers. We were fortunate to have two outstanding guides: Fiona led us through the first leg of the trip, while Duncan took the reins for the second half. Both were absolutely wonderful. If we’re counting adjectives, they were friendly, engaging, accommodating, kind, knowledgeable, entertaining, thorough, and radiantly proud of their heritage. Their passion for Scotland brought every site and story to life. Our music leader, Dana Cooper, was a true delight. A gentleman through and through, Dana's talent shone both on and off the bus. His presence and performances added depth and joy to our journey. The traditional Scottish music woven throughout the tour was a real highlight—we thoroughly enjoyed it and definitely wouldn’t have minded a bit more! As for accommodations, while some hotels stood out more than others, most were clean, comfortable, and well-located. All in all, it was a beautifully curated trip filled with laughter, music, camaraderie, and unforgettable Scottish charm. Alexis, the director of Scotland Folk Tours communicated with us in a timely basis and provided us with all the information to make this a seamless trip with no worries on our part. We highly recommend this tour!

Thank you for leaving such a nice review of your tour. We love to keep the groups small to curate an intimate experience of Scotland with little to no restriction on places we can visit so a group of 14 is perfect! It sounds like you have had an absolutely wonderful trip with us and I hope you come back again!

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour of Edinburgh and the Highlands, Our guides were excellent and the musicians were so talented and entertaining. The Highlands are breathtaking - everywhere you look is a spectacular view. I only wish I could have stayed much longer!
By Judy G for Beyond the Tartan with Kate Campbell on Jul 10, 2025
The highlands have that way of getting into your soul I think. I'm so glad you were able to come with us and enjoy them, and the music, and the guides. Thank you for leaving such a kind review
