Welcome to Get Around Scotland

 

You've always wanted to visit Scotland and now your trip is booked. So now you need some good practical advice on where to go on your visit, what to see and do, and how to get there - we can help.

 

Scotland is a beautiful country with fantastic scenery, great outdoor activities, lively cities and a huge history, but you can't do it all at once!

 

Most people have limited time and it's just not possible to see everything, and though organised bus tours are efficient, they can only ever offer a "one-size-fits-all" option.

 

So whatever your reason for touring in Scotland, whatever your schedule, whatever way you want to get around, let us save you research time and effort by preparing a customized itinerary which lets you get straight to the Scotland you want to see.

 

Now redesigned for 2009, Get Around Scotland aims to provide useful, unbiased suggestions and information - whilst still leaving the choices for your holiday up to you, the traveller. We don't offer any kind of booking arrangements, partly because that's not what we're about, but also because we believe that part of the holiday tour experience is having that flexibility to alter your plans as you want to. If you enjoy a place, stay longer - if it's not to your taste, move on.

 

It's likely that most visitors will choose to drive around Scotland, but there are plenty of options to travel by train or bus, as well as a great cycle network. We can offer tour routes for all these holidays - just put all the details on the form. Tell us what sort of holiday you're looking for and we'll plan accordingly, whether that be cramming as much as possible into one week, a long distance cycle, or taking a more relaxed trip around the quieter backroads. Wherever possible the suggestions we make are derived from personal experience, though we do also draw on other trusted sources. Nobody pays us for recommendations.

 

Give us as much background information as you feel is relevant and for a modest fee, we'll do the rest.

 

Your personal Scotland tour itinerary will include

  • Day-by-day detailed travel directions and route timings
  • Suggestions for activities and places to visit each day
  • Details on addresses, phone numbers, opening times, admission prices etc.
  • Suggestions of the best value places to eat and to stay in each location

As well as your itinerary, we will provide you with a pack of background information and tips on:

  • Driving in Scotland
  • Public Transport in Scotland
  • Eating Out in Scotland

With all this you will then be ready to go on holiday safe in the knowledge that you have all the information you need, created for you, to help you get the most out of your visit to Scotland.
