No filters, just a little calming autumnal beauty for you all today, whichever way the road may lead 🌅

One of Scotland’s favourite characters looking a little spooky on the streets of Edinburgh this Halloween 😱 Oor Wullie still up to no good 🫣
Can you spot his wee moose 🐁 on his famous upturned bucket?

Huge thanks to Cath and all of her wonderful local businesses for a fabulous food tour of Inverness today! So much deliciousness in only a few short hops around town with fascinating local history weaved in along the way…
…And guiding a gaggle of guides which is no small task! 😄

Time for a little rosy glow and a big helping of gratitude 😊 We are almost at the end of our busy summer season and we cannot thank our guests enough for (a) being awesome (all of you!) and (b) some amazing reviews 🌟
As a small business we put our heart and soul into coming up with what we think would be “the best” tour of Scotland for each of our guests. Everyone has different expectations, hopes and dreams and we try to tap into these when we are designing your tour - and then deliver way above expectations. It’s hard work but we love it ❤️ To get this kind of feedback at the end of a tour really does make our hearts and souls sing!
As a small business we rely so much on personal reviews and word of mouth recommendations when our guests get home and tell their friends all about us. It’s what keeps us on our toes and means we are always striving to be the best for all of you out there!
So thank you again to our wonderful guests! We will post a few more reviews every now and then over the winter, and we hope that you’ll take the time to look back on those happy memories and photo albums again too 😊

Colour popping on Loch Lomond 🍁
And this was our one day of rain on this week’s tour - proving that Scotland is beautiful in any weather!

Reflections, romance and rainbow colours in Edinburgh this afternoon 🌈 ❤️
Got to love a little rain from time to time ☔️

Sometimes the best moments are unplanned ✨❤️
Thanks to one of our amazing guests on our special small group tour with for this stunning photo of the aurora borealis (the Mirrie Dancers!) taken last night by Loch Tay. Wow!

A private piper to motivate and kick-start an early morning hike in Royal Deeside ☀️ Doesn’t happen every day of the week!
This talented young man is playing at the today, but we were privileged to have him to ourselves with a backdrop of the River Dee and forests and mountains of the Cairngorms National Park last Tuesday. The guests were delighted with their surprise - after that, the hike through the beautiful heather and ancient woodlands with babbling brooks glittering in the sunshine… was a little secondary 😆

Well prepared ☔️! Lovely friends Cathy and Therrissa toured Scotland with us over 9 days this summer ☺️ It was one of many return trips for Cathy, but a first time tour of Scotland for Therrissa, so the brief was to find places of calm and tranquility away from the tourist hubbub whilst also visiting those key locations that draw so many to Scotland in the first place. Just the kind of itinerary that we love to plan!
Bronze Age burial cairns, boat trips and cute puffins, coastal walks in east and west, hidden churches, gardens blooming with colour, tea and cake in remote highland glens, sideways rain….. and yes, even some sunshine!
Thanks to both ladies for being such delightful travelling companions 😊

Wind swept and interesting! 😄 Probably the best description of our busy summer so far! This weekend we had a fabulous time looking after brilliant friends Susan and Connie, taking them to some of our favourite old haunts in Royal Deeside.
It was a return visit for Susan, who I’d guided two years ago with a different group, but this time she wanted to spend more time in the great outdoors - and both ladies also wanted to take advantage of the longer open season from to pop in to the Royal Family’s own holiday home whilst we were there 👑
What a time to visit, with the gardens ready for His Majesty’s visit, the heather in full bloom and blue skies to accompany the slightly breezy (and yes, a little showery!) conditions. Away from the castle, we didn’t see a soul ☺️
They are now “hitting” the Edinburgh Festival - quite a different experience 😅🎨

On board a Royal yacht, clipboard in hand, fabulous whisky distillery in the background, lovely guests behind the camera 📸… Happy Place 😄☀️

A fun and fabulous tour with these four friends back in early May 😁 Two of them had MacLeod ancestry so of course a trip “over the sea to Skye” was in order - but in four days we also managed to fit in some highland cows, cute lambs (and sheepdog puppies!), gorgeous vistas and hidden gems from across the country, a little hiking - and even a wee nip of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s favourite Drambuie 🥃 by a tumbling waterfall ☺️
Our favourite kind of a tour!

Off to the Isle of Skye tomorrow! First trip to Skye this year*, so we’ve been having fun looking back on some of our tours to “The Misty Isle” in 2023 ⛰️ ☀️
We had sunshine, laughter, beautiful scenery, happy guests, even a piper… And if you keep scrolling, you’ll find a couple of our favourites, Angie and Don, braving the rain and living out their dream regardless 😄 ☔️

*First of many?!

Take a seat! Fabulous views (and sunshine! ☀️) at Hopetoun House, ancestral home of the Hope family for over 300 years - and still lived in to this day.
Keep swiping to see what met us at the top of all… those… stairs… (it was worth it!) and a quick glimpse inside this wonderful mansion.
The family opens the house to the public over the summer - easily visited from Edinburgh, why don’t you include it in your next trip to Scotland?

Are you looking for a small group tour of Scotland that feels like a custom private trip with hidden gems, meaningful experiences and the time to breathe and take it all in? You’re in luck!
We specialise in bespoke private tours at Infinite Scotland, but every September we make an exception, working hand-in-hand with the lovely to deliver their annual small group* tours to Scotland. We apply exactly the same philosophy to their trips, visiting Scotland’s “must sees” as well as meeting local producers, exploring hidden gems, savouring amazing food and drink - and most importantly, taking our time to stop, gaze and even do a little exploring on our own.
Highlights include:
👉 Edinburgh
👉 Stirling Castle
👉 Blair Castle
👉 Highland Games
👉 St Andrews ancient ruins, university - and golf
👉 A unique private visit to a remote Highland hill farm
👉 “Meet the makers” coffee and chocolate tasting
👉 Ruined clan castles and prehistoric stone circles
👉 Time at leisure to explore award winning independent bookshops, distilleries, bakeries and hikes by Highland lochs and waterfalls.
👉 Or simply relax with a book in our cosy Highland home complete with hot tub!
If this sounds just what you are looking for in 2024, there are a handful of spaces remaining on both “all-comers” and “women only” trips in September.
Just drop us a line and we’ll be in touch!
*Small group of no more than 10 guests with a private guide and wonderful hosts.
