Scotland Itinerary Planning


Scotland might be a wee country, but it is stunningly diverse, jaw-droppingly bonnie, and packed with a seemingly endless list of things to see, do and experience. Planning, researching and narrowing down options for your Scotland trip is super exciting but it can also be completely overwhelming. That’s where I come in!

 Everyone deserves to have their dream trip in Scotland and I can work with you to remove the stress of trip planning and help you create the perfect itinerary. I want you to enjoy every aspect of your Scottish experience, right from the initial planning until you’re fully immersed in the sights and sounds!

My brand new travel planning service gives you the opportunity to have a personalised, informal, face-to-face chat over a Zoom call with yours truly! We can both grab a cuppa (or a wee dram maybe!) and spend 1 whole hour discussing your travel plans and all your questions about Scotland.



HOW DOES IT WORK?

  1. Choose which service is best for you; there are 3 options depending on which stage of planning you’re at and how much support you need.
  2. Book a time that works for you
  3. Submit your pre-call questionnaire
  4. Get ready to chat all things Scotland!

Let’s talk for Scotland

I can literally talk for Scotland but to keep us on the right track and make sure you leave the call with exactly what you need, here are some topics we can discuss.

  • How to make the most of your time in Scotland without squeezing too much in (spoiler alert: Scotland is best enjoyed at a slow pace!)
  • Where to start searching for accommodation and things to do.
  • Which Scottish Islands to visit – I’ve been to 66!
  • Where to base yourself and how long to spend in each place.
  • The best places to eat – I’m an expert in this category!
  • How to explore Scotland on public transport: best priced tickets, routes and how to book.

Why choose me

I started travelling Scotland extensively 15 years ago when I became a tour guide for Haggis Adventures. I still vividly remember seeing it all for the first time and ever since then I’ve wanted to help create those ‘wow’ moments for other people. I’m definitely the lassie for the job!

  • I left my day job in 2018 to travel Scotland full-time and share my experiences with as many people as possible
  • My love for Scotland has attracted an audience of over 50,000 people on social media
  • I’m a massive foodie so I’ll ensure you’re very well fed on your trip!
  • I have a huge network of contacts who run amazing wee local businesses in Scotland
  • I don’t drive so I know all about Scotland’s public transport network
  • I’ve helped dozens of people plan their dream trip in Scotland
  • Quite simply, I live and breathe Scotland – it’s the love of my life!
