Scotland

Let Scotland's lochs and highlands enchant you

There's a reason a unicorn is the symbol of Scotland—it's a land of pure magic. Travel there with CIE Tours to discover every enchanting vista, from the heather-covered Highlands to the depths of Loch Ness. Explore the rich Scottish culture, beyond the traditions of tartan, whisky and bagpipes. Let us introduce you to the charms of Scotland.

Loch Ness contains more water than every lake in England and Wales combined—and Scotland itself has 31,000 lochs.

DISCOVER SCOTLAND'S LOCHS

Scotland

Edinburgh

With its medieval Old Town, chic Georgian New Town, and timeless views from Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh is truly the romantic heart of Scotland.

Edinburgh

The Scottish capital's "Old Town" retains much of its medieval-era charm—and wandering the streets and exploring the shops is a popular thing to do in Edinburgh.

Military Tattoo

One of the most popular things to do in Edinburgh is this August event—a grand tradition that began after World War II, with drum and pipe corps from around the world performing.

Edinburgh Castle

Walk in the footsteps of soldiers, kings and queens, and even the odd pirate or two at this unforgettable Scottish destination.

Edinburgh Castle

This medieval-era royal residence, military garrison, prison and fortress, is alive with many exciting tales.

Isle of Skye

One of the largest of Scotland's 790 islands, Isle of Skye features colorful port towns and villages, and dramatic, stony landscapes.

Dunvegan Castle

This medieval fortress rises up majestically from a promontory on the Isle of Skye.

Whisky Distillery

One of Scotland's most legendary creations is its fine Scotch whisky—and many CIE Tours of Scotland feature distillery tours where you can sample a dram or two and see how it's created.

Skara Brae

A wild storm nearly two centuries ago unearthed this seaside Neolithic village of stone, dating to between 3200 and 2200 BC.

Scottish Highlands

The best time to catch the Highlands heather in full bloom is late August into September. But you can taste it year round in heather ale and Scottish honey—the bees often rely on heather pollen for their food source.

St Andrews

The Old Course at St Andrews is the very first golf course in the world, dating back to the 1400s.

Stirling Castle

Scotland's grand castle played a key role in both Scottish and English history, and many of the most famous Scots, including Mary Queen of Scots and Robert Bruce, once dwelled within its walls.

Iron Age House

The sea helped bring this nearly intact Pictish village to light, just 25 years ago.

Culross

Quaint Culross lets visitors step back in time to the 17th and 18th centuries for a taste of what life was like for its inhabitants. It's served as a backdrop for many scenes in the series Outlander.

Loch Lomond

Loch Lomond is the largest lake by area in all of Scotland, at more than 24 miles in length. You'll find Scotland's famous red deer and other wildlife along its shores.

Callanish Stones

These mysterious Neolithic "standing stones" in the Outer Hebrides may be older than Stonehenge.

Loch Ness

The depths of this lovely Scottish lake contain more fresh water than all the lakes in England and Wales combined—and perhaps, if the legends are true, "Nessie," the Loch Ness Monster.

Urquhart Castle

Some of Scotland's most stirring history has taken place at this magisterial fortress overlooking Loch Ness.

Glencoe

This historic climbing hut is an icon in black and white against the green hills of Glencoe.
