Scotland: June 15th - 22nd, 2023

Description of Attractions INVERNESS A compact, cosmopolitan city with a lot of heart, and all the wonders of the Highlands on its doorstep. Inverness is a Gaelic word meaning “mouth of the River Ness”. The Ness is a river that flows out of Loch Ness (famous for its monster!) into the Moray Firth (famous for its resident pod of Bottlenose dolphins). There's lots to do here, with a quality of life that is hard to beat! It’s a place you will want to return to again and again. Castle Stuart Golf Links: A championship links course overlooking the Moray Firth and well-known Inverness and the Black Isle landmarks; such as Kessock Bridge and Chanonry Lighthouse. Holes - 18

Length - 7009 yards Par - 72

SSS - 72 Culloden Battlefield: Culloden is one of the most important battles in the history of the British Isles. It was the final battle fought on the British mainland and a total defeat of the Jacobites,

ending more than half a century of Jacobite conflict. (Please note: The battlefield at Culloden is free of charge, and the visitor center is optional at an additional cost.)

PITLOCHRY

In Pitlochry, you can breathe in the fresh air, relax and admire the view, or delve into a whole host of outdoor activities in Perthshire's natural playground. Blair Athol Distillery Signature Tour: Blair Athol Distillery stands at the gateway to the Scottish

Highlands in the picturesque town of Pitlochry, Perthshire. In the foothills of the Grampian mountains lies Blair Athol’s ancient source of water – the Allt Dour – which flows through the grounds from the slopes of Ben Vrackie, contributing to the whisky’s, mellow quality and smooth finish. The signature tour is a guided distillery experience followed by a tutored tasting of three whiskies including the Distillery Exclusive Bottling and a gift.

Description of Attractions DORNOCH This tranquil location with stunning scenery is a thriving community sitting on the east coast of the North Highlands. It is blessed with a particularly sunny climate thanks to its sheltered position, and has miles of golden sand beaches. Royal Dornoch Championship Golf Course: Royal Dornoch is spellbinding and many golfers

from all over the world travel to these natural links at some point in their lives. It is quoted as one of the "must-play" courses. Its timeless setting makes it such a pleasing place to play golf. It's wild, isolated, and, at the same time, absolutely beautiful; there's the blaze of color in early summer when the gorse is in flower. The pure white sandy beach divides the links from the Dornoch Firth and it all feels very humbling. Formed in 1877, Royal Dornoch has exceptional standards and always aims to exceed the expectations of visitors and loyal members and aims to do so in a relaxed, informal environment, with an emphasis on traditional highland hospitality. Holes - 18 Length - 6754 yards Par - 70

SSS - 70 Glen Ord Distillery, Home of Singleton: Located on the edge of the Black Isle in the Highlands

west of Inverness, is a delight to both the eye and the palate. Watch their distillers at work creating a magical malt whisky that is sweet, malty, and dry on the palate. Enjoy a tour finished with a tasting of 12, 15 and 18-year-old Singleton.

DALWHINNIE Set amongst the dramatic mountain scenery in Badenoch, the small hamlet of Dalwhinnie is a good base for exploring the surrounding countryside. It is surrounded by magnificent mountains. Ben Alder, the highest mountain in the Scottish Highlands between Loch Ericht and Glen Spean, is also nearby and makes for a great walking experience.

Dalwhinnie Distillery: This distillery tour gives you an explanation of the traditional art of malt whisky distilling. Afterward, sample 2 Dalwhinnie single malts with specially selected chocolate that combines beautifully with the whisky. A guide will also give you advice on the best way to appreciate whisky and suggest other food combinations.

FAQ's How do I submit payments? Once guests complete the traveler preference form [by clicking the Book Now button], they will be sent an invoice to submit their nonrefundable deposit and secure their spot.

Why are payments nonrefundable? Once the group accepts the itinerary contract, they are agreeing to travel based on the accepted itinerary and pay the contracted cost in full. Failure to uphold the contract will result in penalties and/or fees from the travel suppliers ( hotels, transportation. and other tour operators.] Purchasing Travel Insurance is strongly suggested.

Why do I need travel insurance? Life happens! Although travel insurance doesn't cover all inconveniences or tragedies, it is the best way to protect your travel investment.

After your trip is paid in full and within 14 to 21 days prior to departure, you will receive your travel documents. Be mindful to read through the information carefully, print them out, and pack them in your carry-on bags. What happens if I am unable to travel after I have submitted payments?
