It’s been a while since we talked about going to Scotland, learning tunes and playing harps (or enjoying and listening!). Alex and I have come up with an exciting trip that will be perfect whether you lay the harp or not!
It’s time! We have set dates for our Highlands (and Islands) trips for 2027. Yup – trips! Two!
We are going to spend our time in Scotland – with harps! What could be better?
Ok, well, bringing a harp appreciator along with you could probably make it even better – so do that!
If you’ve never been with us before, you’re in for a treat! And if you have traveled with us, you’ll see that we’ve kept all the wonderful parts of traveling in the warm embrace of David and put a new spin on it with Alex!
We’ll fly into and out of Edinburgh and then use a mix of transport modes to enjoy each of the historical centers and their sites. Some of our time will be organized tours and we’ll also have independent downtime. No matchy-matchy tour for us! We’ll hit marquee sites (for our first timers) and some of our favorite local gems (for our tenured travelers). And you know that your harp for the week will meet you there so we can have a tune for each day!
When? you ask. We have chosen two dates so you can definitely fit it into your schedule. We will have five seats for our Spring trip May 3rd to May 17th, 2027 (think cheerful yellow canola flowers and gamboling lambs!). In the Autumn we’ll have five seats September 26th to October 4th, 2027 (think blooming heather and autumn foliage!). Different times of year, different seasons, same beautiful, amazing Scotland!
As I said, we only have five seats on each trip – because we like it that way! We get to know you so we can tailor as we go so you have a wonderful experience! We have a plan but it’s not rigid, so if we want to, we can squeeze something special in – or route ourselves around the sunshine.
Here’s the plan!
After you arrive, we’ll head to Sterling and enjoy getting to know this fabulous country. We’ll throw back to the glory days as we explore the fabulous Sterling Castle. We’ll also get the chance to enjoy the stunning scenery with a little bit of time at the indescribable Isle of Skye. From there, we’ll head to Pitlochry for a little bit of time in picturesque small town and see some of the heart of the country. We’ll round out our time in historic Edinburgh and enjoy Scotland’s capital of culture.
Of course there’s more and you’ll find additional details on the website (https://babciaandyiayia.com/scot27) like what’s included and more itinerary details. I know you’re intrigued so if you’d like to learn more about this experience, please schedule a time to chat with us. We’ll answer all your questions and get to know you a bit better!
And if you’re already ready to go – save your spot (click the link at the top of the page). If you have trip detail questions or want to ask harp related questions, just ask! I can’t wait to hear from you! I’ll be over here, pre-packing and finding new tunes!
