Lets take a look at our Luxury Tours of Scotland

Luxury tours of Scotland offer discerning travelers an unparalleled opportunity to explore the breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage of this majestic country in utmost comfort and style. With a private tour guide leading the way, you can tailor your journey to your exact preferences, ensuring an unforgettable experience that surpasses all expectations.

One of the hallmark features of luxury tours in Scotland is the option to travel by helicopter, providing unparalleled views of the rugged coastline, misty lochs, and ancient castles from above. This exclusive mode of transportation not only adds an element of thrill but also allows you to cover vast distances in a fraction of the time, maximizing your time spent indulging in the sights and sounds of Scotland.

As you traverse the stunning countryside, your private tour guide will curate a bespoke itinerary that includes visits to some of the most opulent and historic landmarks Scotland has to offer. From majestic 5-star castles steeped in centuries of history to exclusive whisky distilleries where you can sample Scotland’s finest single malts, every moment of your journey will be marked by luxury and refinement.

Imagine stepping back in time as you explore the grandeur of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, or immersing yourself in the mystical atmosphere of the Isle of Skye, all while enjoying the personalized attention and expertise of your knowledgeable guide. Whether you’re strolling through manicured gardens or savoring a gourmet picnic against the backdrop of a Highland vista, every aspect of your luxury tour will be tailored to your preferences and desires.

At the end of each exhilarating day, retire to your luxurious accommodations, which may include sumptuous suites within historic castles or boutique hotels nestled amidst Scotland’s most picturesque landscapes. Here, you can unwind in decadent surroundings, reflecting on the day’s adventures and anticipating the wonders that await you on the morrow.

In essence, luxury tours of Scotland offer the perfect blend of indulgence, adventure, and cultural immersion, ensuring an unparalleled travel experience that will leave you with cherished memories to last a lifetime.

“The time spent with David was by far the most relaxing and enjoyable part of our trip to Scotland. His wealth of knowledge about Scottish history and his delivery of the information was engaging. His sense of humor had us laughing throughout the week. We developed a deeper appreciation of the land and the people. It was clear to us that David loves his country as it was present in his delivery.”

We booked a 7-day private tour for our group of five. From the limousine service to the hotel staff, we were never unsure about where to be or if we had questions, they were answered. Our tour guide Ross was absolutely fantastic! He knew everything about all of Scotland and really catered our tour to what we wanted. Ross even made a few special side trips when we mentioned the Highland cows and a specific pub we had heard about. He had a great wealth of knowledge of the history and told many fantastic legends along the way. He even had a music playlist to suit specific sights. He really made the trip extra special. We will never forget it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Scotland Escorted Tours

Before booking one of these private tours of Scotland you might want to know more. Scroll down and you’ll find answers to the questions that we get asked most often. For more in-depth information, we’ve compiled this helpful Scotland Travel Guide for your convenience.

It’s also good to know that when you choose Nordic Visitor, you can Book With Confidence , safe in the knowledge that your payments are protected. Please read our FAQs and booking terms for details on our booking process, payments and more.

1. How safe is Scotland?

Scotland is a safe country for visitors, and you can rest easy knowing there’s a good public healthcare system in place. For tips and advice before you travel, we recommend reading this short guide to health and safety in Scotland .

2. What is a private tour?

On a privately guided trip, you and your chosen travel companions will be accompanied by an expert guide. Your guide will be there throughout your trip, sharing their insider knowledge with you.

Your dedicated travel consultant will select your tour leader to match your personal interests where possible, whether that’s Scottish ancestry , photography or something else.

Each day your driver-guide will take you to the region’s top attractions, and perhaps even some hidden gems, telling stories and answering questions as you go. All of this extra insight that your guide provides will bring Scotland to life and make your trip extra special.

If you love the idea of discovering Scotland with a guide, but would prefer to meet like-minded travellers, then we recommend a Scotland small group tour . This involves exploring Scotland in a spacious minibus driven by a guide. And with groups of up to just 15 guests, you’ll still get to enjoy one-to-one time with your guide.

3. Why is a local tour guide so important?

A local tour guide will make your journey come alive, as you’ll get to see Scotland through the eyes of someone who calls it home!

As well as being your private chauffeur, your guide will share Scottish folklore stories, alongside facts about the country’s history and natural landscape. And, of course, they’ll take you to the top spots for photographs.

Plus, you can relax knowing that your licensed guide has been chosen by us to meet our high service standards. All of this means you’re sure to have an unforgettable trip!

4. What should I do and see in Scotland?

Visit Scotland and you’ll be able to soak up its diverse landscapes and coastline, along with a number of treasured heritage sites.

Exploring Edinburgh – the Scottish capital – is a must. Packed with UNESCO-listed sites, one of the best ways to see the city is on a walking tour. If this is something you’d like to do, let your travel consultant know and they’ll add a guided city excursion to your itinerary.

Here’s a list of more things to do and the best places to go in Scotland :

• • Wander Edinburgh ’s historic Grassmarket district and head to Calton Hill for stunning views
• • Visit Scotland’s largest lake, Loch Lomond , in the Trossachs National Park
• • Head to the legendary Loch Ness and learn about the myths that lie within
• • Take an Isle of Skye tour and you’ll be treated to breathtaking scenery
• • Watch as the Jacobite train (or “Hogwart’s Express”) steams through Glenfinnan
• • Experience Glen Coe , an enchanting valley where mountains and rivers await
• • Tour a whisky distillery or two on the Isle of Islay and taste the island’s famous single malts
• • Stroll along the beaches and charming streets of the seaside town, St Andrews
• • Uncover the dramatic real-life filming locations that feature in the iconic Outlander series  

In fact, for fans of this hit TV show, a Scotland Outlander trip is a wonderful way to go behind the scenes. Your expert guide will take you to the series’ most beautiful and historic filming locations, including Perthshire and the Clava Cairns. Plus, you could check out some of the best places to eat on the Outlander Trail .

Or perhaps you’d like to dive into the world of Scottish whisky. In this case, a privately guided whisky tour of Scotland is one of the best ways to make the most of your time here.

This is because your guide will give you the insider scoop on the top single malts and take you to a number of distilleries. Not only that, but you’ll also be free to enjoy a “dram” (glass) or two as your guide does all of the driving.

Check out these articles for tips on where to go and what to do in Scotland, depending on the season:

• •  Scotland in summer
• •  Scotland in winter
• •  Why you should spend next spring or autumn in Scotland

5. How many castles are there in Scotland?

Historians estimate that there were once over 3,000 castles scattered across Scotland. While not all of these remain, you’ll still have plenty of options if castles are one of the reasons you’re visiting Scotland.

You’ll find Scotland’s castles in all shapes and forms. These include fully restored and maintained sites that are open to the public, private family homes, lavish hotels, and even active army barracks.

Meanwhile, others have fallen into ruin. But these can make for some of the most dramatic sights. For example, head to Dunnottar Castle , perched atop the Aberdeenshire sea cliffs, to see for yourself.

To get an idea of the best ones you should visit, be sure to read this guide to the top Scottish castles . For instance, if you’re spending time in the capital city, don’t miss Edinburgh Castle, home to the United Kingdom’s oldest crown jewels.

You could also check out the castles and royal residences used as filming locations in the hit TV series The Crown . 

6. Can you see the northern lights in Scotland?

Yes, it’s possible to see the  northern lights in Scotland during the winter months. But it’s good to know that glimpsing the aurora here is considered a rare treat. This is because the Arctic Circle is where sightings are most frequent, and Scotland lies south of here.

So, if seeing the aurora borealis is high on your wish list, we recommend one of these northern lights packages in Iceland , Norway or Lapland .

7. When should I visit Scotland?

Finding the perfect time to visit Scotland depends on where you’d like to go and what you’d like to do on your trip. And while Scotland does experience distinct seasons, the weather is often variable. So much so, that you may hear the locals describing the weather as “four seasons in a day”.

Summer is the most popular time for a trip to Scotland. But travel anytime between April and September , and you can expect milder temperatures and drier weather compared to the winter.

The countryside will be at its most colourful during spring and summer, flaunting wildflowers, heather-clad hillsides and vibrant greenery. As well as being a great time for enjoying the outdoors and wildlife watching, you could attend a Scottish festival or lively Highland games.

Venture to Scotland in the autumn and you’ll see the country’s deciduous woodlands set ablaze with fiery autumnal shades. Or, travel in winter – December to March – if it’s brisk walks, frosty scenery and snow-dusted mountains that you’re after.

It’s also worth noting that Scottish whisky tours are possible from March to October . This is because some distilleries have downtime during winter and are closed to the public.

Discover more about Scottish tours in summer and winter breaks in Scotland by reading this helpful blog: Best time to visit Scotland – your complete guide .

8. What type of vehicle will I be touring in?

The vehicle you will travel around Scotland in depends on the size of your party. We can cater for group sizes up to 15. But no matter how many of you are travelling, your car or minibus will be spacious, clean and comfortable.

9. How many people can we have on a private tour?

Nordic Visitor privately guided trips can accommodate up to 7 people on an escorted tour of any length.

If there are over 7 of you, then it’s good to know that private tours are limited to a maximum of 6 days travelling with a guide. This is to ensure we comply with the UK’s minibus tour regulations.

10. When will I meet my guide?

You’ll meet your private tour guide the day after you arrive in Edinburgh. This lets you rest after your journey and gives you the freedom to spend a day touring Edinburgh yourself.

11. Do you tip tour guides in Scotland?

Tipping your guide is entirely up to you. In Scotland, providing a gratuity is not expected. Of course, if you’d like to show your gratitude with a tip, we’re sure your guide will appreciate it.

12. Can I personalise my tour?

Yes, you can personalise your trip by extending your stay in Edinburgh at either end of your private tour. Or you might like to customise your itinerary by adding optional excursions. For example, you could have afternoon tea at Edinburgh Castle or take a guided walking tour of Edinburgh’s underground vaults.

Plus, if it’s more convenient for your onward travel arrangements, you could switch your final night’s stay to Glasgow .

For more information, or if you have something specific in mind, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us to ask about bespoke tours in Scotland .

13. When should I organise my flights?

We recommend that you organise your flights once your package has been booked and confirmed by your dedicated travel consultant. This ensures that your tour is secured, and you have the correct timing information when you book your flights.

You can of course check for flight dates and times beforehand. And if you have any questions, you can contact your consultant for advice.

14. How long is a flight to Scotland?

Lising Family California

"Absolutely stunning day and tour. We are blown away by the care and detail put into our day, by Peter and Carolina. We saw everything on our bucket list and then some. The stories and explanations of historical significance, dates, names, atmosphere is incredible to learn along the way as Peter draws such a rich picture for even the first time Scotland traveler to imagine. We were not disappointed, returned home happily exhausted and felt like we had time traveled through the entire day."

Donna & Stella South Carolina

"We had an INCREDIBLE private tour through Scotland thanks to Little Scottish Treasures! Jamie McPhail, our guide and driver, was exceptional! He was so knowledgeable and entertaining! He went out of his way to make sure we had a great tour and didn’t miss anything. When we had heavy rains one day, he rearranged the schedule on the spot. Scotland was the highlight of our three weeks in the UK thanks to Jamie and Little Scottish Treasures!"

Recomendable 100%. Un tour personalizado de acuerdo con aquello que más te interesa, añadiendo lugares preciosos y llenos de historia.

Bartenders serving drinks in bars and pubs in Scotland don’t expect to be tipped by customers. That being said, tips are always appreciated.

Scotland doesn’t have fixed rules for tipping as our county adopts a much more laid back approach when it comes to tipping. With regards to tipping your walking tour guides or driver tour guides, the answer would be simply whatever you are comfortable with. Again, you are not obliged to tip. But if you feel the level of service has been very good then you may tip as you are feel appropriate.

When Is The Best Time To Visit Scotland?

The peak times for visitors in Scotland are between April and September. These are the spring and summer months and the weather tends to be warmer and drier. The winter and autumn months in Scotland also offer their own degree of charm, with festivities aplenty. It is to be noted that Scotland has varying weather patterns. However that is all part of the fun when visiting Scotland and why our lands are so beautiful and green.

What Clothes Should I Bring?

Due to the changeable weather here in Scotland, we recommend you bring a variety of clothing. Scotland is known for quick showers, so it is a good idea to bring a water proof jacket. Equally the weather can be warm in summer (reaching 30 degrees) so make sure you bring shorts and T-shirt too. Luxury hotels and restaurants in Scotland are fairly relaxed in terms of dress code but at a minimum we suggest having at the very least a few smart causal outfits.

One of its arches was blown up by General Blackney in 1745 in an attempt to prevent Bonnie Prince Charlie’s Highlanders from crossing the River Forth.
