Discover the soul of Scotland on this late autumn adventure to the Scottish hinterlands in search of real ale and the world's finest malt whiskies. Explore two Islands, the Highlands, Speyside and a bit of gritty Glasgow. Each area features quintessential Scottish landscapes, local color, rich history, and fine breweries and distilleries. The trip begins on the island of Islay and ends in Glasgow. Start with three nights on Islay as you explore the island, its unique whiskies, and Islay's only brewery. Next, travel to Skye with a notable stop or two along the way. Two days to explore here are followed by two two-night stays in Inverness and Pitlochry, putting you in striking distance of a wide variety of interesting historic sites, breweries and distilleries. Plenty of scenery and enough exposure to the fickle Scottish weather to make whisky and beer taste even better. Toss in fine meals in cozy, traditional settings, a couple of focused tastings, fine hotels, Scottish hospitality, and a group of like minded travelers and you have a great adventure! You should come along.
