Travel Guide to Scotland


Map of Scotland

Language: English
Currency: £ GBP
Time Zone: 0 hrs GMT

There is no single element that defines this beautiful country, as Scotland has so much to offer. The Highlands boast spectacular mountains, majestic glens, mirror-like lochs form the perfect backdrop to picturesque towns, isolated crofts, towering castles and pagoda-topped distilleries. In contrast the south has rich, rolling farmland and rugged seacoasts which are different again from the magnificent architecture, ancient courtyards, medieval Old Town and bustling shopping streets of the capital city of Edinburgh.

There are great art galleries to be discovered over in Glasgow, and a host of outdoor activities to enjoy everywhere. Above all Scotland is rich in culture and history, with its museums attesting to the proud and unique character of its people.

Whether you want to stroll through highland pinewoods and sample delicious fish from the lochs, or prefer climbing and cycling through the stunning hills, Scotland provides something for everyone.
