Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding our services.
Pricing
Here at Scottish Highland Trails we only sell tailor made packages designed to your own individual requirements. As a result, each tour is different! Therefore prices can vary enormously, depending on factors such as how long you would to spend in Scotland and/or Ireland, whether you would prefer to stay in B&B or five star hotels, and so on… there are so many variations. During the planning process, as soon as your route is finalised we will be able to give you a quote. Our planning service is free of charge and you are under no obligation – if we are unable to create your perfect package at a price you are willing to pay, you can walk away with our best wishes.
International Air travel
Unfortunately we do not book international air travel, although we are happy to provide you with advice on routes and information on airlines who offer direct flights to Scotland and/or Ireland. Please contact your local travel agent or search online to book your flights.
Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend when booking a vacation with Scottish Highland Trails that you take out travel insurance which will provide adequate cover in case of cancellation, medical cover and personal injury, and loss and/or theft of personal belongings/money. We further recommend that the content of your package is explained to insurers in order that all risks during your trip are covered by your policy, particularly if you intend on participating in any sporting activities during your trip.
Unfortunately, insurance regulations in the UK prevent Scottish Highland Trails, or indeed any other tour operator, selling travel insurance to non-UK residents. What we suggest therefore is that you search on the internet under “Trip Insurance” and/or “Travel Insurance” and you’ll find a number of policies which can be bought online. Many of our guests also find that the agent from whom they purchased their flights can supply good local insurance advice.

Happy 250th birthday to the USA! 🇺🇸🏴
Did you know Edinburgh Castle is home to one of the earliest depictions of the Star Spangled Banner outside of North America?
Deep inside the vaults of the castle, back in about 1780, Americans captured during the Revolutionary War were incarcerated in the castle prisons. One prisoner scratched out a faint image of a ship flying the Stars and Stripes on his wooden cell door. A quiet act of defiance by a sailor far from home, you can still see this if you visit the vaults today!

I use all of these, all the time! My granny used to tell me I was “as thrawn as a bag o’ weasels” when I was a wee girl 😂💙🏴The Scots language has words for things no other language bothered to name.
Dreich — that specific grey, damp, miserable weather that isn't quite rain but isn't quite not rain either. The English say "overcast." The Scots say dreich, which sounds exactly like it feels.
Thrawn — stubborn in a particular way. Not just obstinate. Twisted, contrary, determined to do it the wrong way on purpose. There is no English equivalent because English speakers apparently gave up trying to describe this personality type.
Glaikit — vacant. Dopey. The expression on someone's face when the lights are on but nobody is home.
Couthie — warm, friendly, comfortable in a homely way. The feeling of a kitchen that smells like baking and has a dog asleep by the fire.
Wheesht — be quiet. But with feeling. Haud yer wheesht is the full version, and it means be quiet right now and I mean it.
Scunnered — utterly fed up. Beyond tired of something. A level of exasperation English doesn't have a single word for.
Every language reveals the priorities of the people who speak it.
Scottish priorities, apparently, include very specific weather, very specific stubbornness, and very specific silence.
Which one is your favorite? 👇
