The Highlands: Scotland 2.0

After I had to cancel my 2024 tour of the Highlands (5 days) due to Covid, I was determined to schedule another tour, this time a longer one. So, I did. I booked the 9-day Rabbies tour: Isle of Skye, Iona, Mull, and the Orkney Isles. 


August 26 - September 6, 2026
Non stop Washington to Edinburgh ($1,153.93)

9-day tour of the Highlands and Islands ($1,406.70)

Small group tour with Rabbies


Royal Bank of Scotland £10 Note

It was actually two tours back-to-back. Two different tour guides. Different people each part. Seven of us did the whole 9-day tour. Since I didn't have anyone to travel with for this trip, I decided to try a group tour (16 people). There were pros and cons with this decision.
