I returned last week from a trip to Scotland. I have been many times before, but I was pleased to see some sites I had not seen before. I started my trip in Aberdeen, in the northeast of Scotland. I traveled throughout Scotland, visiting a farm, a wonderful country house hotel, and even had a whisky and food pairing dinner to close out the trip.
With Scotland on my mind, I have planned a week long trip to Scotland May 10, 2024. We’ll have a guided tour from Glasgow to Edinburgh, staying at 4 star hotels, including one of my favorites – the Atholl Palace in Pitlochry, a baronial mansion with panoramic views of the countryside. We’ll see many fairytale castles - including one with the only private army in Europe, enjoy a scenic cruise on Loch Lomond and watch a farmer and his sheepdog round up his flock. Whisky, music and more. Join us! http://www.wisewomentravel.com/scotland.html

Iceland is on our agenda this October. Known as the land of fire and ice, this time of year in Iceland is also known for its views of the Northern Lights. The breathtaking natural beauty of the “Golden Circle”, waterfalls, volcanos, icebergs, lavafields, and floating in the Blue Lagoon are all part of the plan. There’s plenty of opportunity to meet with your fellow travelers, too, with 11 included meals. http://www.wisewomentravel.com/iceland.html

It’s important to buy travel insurance, but even more important to buy it within 7 days of making a deposit on a tour. Travel insurance covers cancellation fees, of course, but also covers you for baggage loss, delay of flights, returning home due to the needs of a loved one, medical and other expenses. Medical evacuation insurance is one of the most important elements – being able to fly home when you are too sick to be treated locally. Purchase it with your deposit, and you’ll also be covered for pre-existing conditions. $1000 worth of coverage costs just $70. Always ask us for travel insurance when you book a trip.

This month, I am visiting Scotland, somewhere I haven’t been in 4 years. I am looking forward to my time in Aberdeen.
Until next month ... or the next zoom.
Happy Easter and Happy Passover.
Regards.
