How lucky are we to witness Scotland looking this beautiful?

Tom P, in our Operations team, has captured the autumn magic perfectly.

Some journeys are spontaneous. Others are carefully planned, built on anticipation.

Give yourself the gift of the latter.

Our Scottish small group trips are kept to small numbers, usually no more than 8 travellers, for good reason, meaning our prime dates fill quickly.

Book now to enjoy the best availability for travel next year. Better still, our prices are frozen until 5pm BST on October 20th, so you can secure your 2027 travel at its 2026 price.

The Calanais Standing Stones are one of the most significant and mysterious Neolithic monuments in Scotland.

Older than England’s Stonehenge, these stones stand up to 4.8 m/16 feet high. Where archaeology raises questions as it answers about the history of these stones, folklore steps in. For centuries, stories have surrounded the Calanais Stones.

Team member Alex takes us through some of the legends associated with this ancient site.

Have you visited these impressive standing stones in the Outer Hebrides yet?

September offers long, joyous days with just a hint of the coming season wafting pleasantly on the breeze, the last of true summer.

Your journey begins in late afternoon on the Aberdeen docks. You board the ferry, feeling the salt air on your face as the harbour lights fade, before the rhythm of the North Sea rocks you to sleep.

By the time morning breaks, you’re stepping out onto the dock as the ferry approaches Lerwick, and the cries of seabirds are carried on the breeze.

Shetland, a remote archipelago off the north coast of mainland Scotland, is steeped in Norse history. And it is perhaps best experienced when you arrive by ferry.

We’ve put together a guide on what it’s actually like to travel on the overnight Shetland ferry. Tap the link to read the blog: https://wildernessscotland.com/blog/overnight-shetland-ferry/

You’ll hear it in remote Highland pubs, beside the fire in your hotel on Skye, and at the end of a long day exploring the nooks and crannies of Edinburgh, but what does it actually mean?

Slàinte Mhath is Gaelic; ‘slàinte’ translates to health, while ‘mhath’ means good. Together, it forms a toast best shared over a dram of fine single malt, wishing for good health, safe travels, and warm company.

And don’t forget to make eye contact!
