Scotland Trip Recommendations

[Colby TS]

Hi All,

I have a non-sports question I’d love to get your input on. We’re planning a friends trip to Scotland next March, and I wanted to see if anyone has any must-see recommendations— food, sights, and hotels.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Take a bus tour with Rabbies.  They have numerous tours.  The Glen Coe tour is great.  See Edinburgh Castle, walk the Royal Mile, and visit Sterling Castle.

We rented a car this summer with Edinburgh as home base.   The Harry Potter tour is great, even for adults.   A must is driving from Edinburgh to St Andrews then do the half-day tour, starting at the infamous 18th hole.    Chocolate making tour in Edinburgh was excellent.   So was the High-end Whiskey tasting tour.

You can book them through AirBnB ‘Experiences’.   Pretty cool feature we started using on travel the past couple years.

If you ever need help planning a trip to Ireland, I’d be more than happy share our full itinerary to help. My wife and I spent a couple of weeks there in 2017, making a full loop around the island. It’s still one of our all-time favorite destinations—stunning landscapes and some of the friendliest people we've ever met, especially in the smaller towns.
