At Ireland & Scotland Luxury Tours, we are receiving a growing number of enquiries from guests planning private tours of Ireland, Scotland, or a combination of both.
Our advice is simple: do not try to see everything.
The best luxury tours of Ireland and Scotland are not about fitting as many attractions as possible into each day. Ireland and Scotland deserve to be explored at a relaxed pace, giving you time to enjoy the scenery, hotels, food and experiences along the way.
How Long Do You Need to Tour Ireland and Scotland?
For a private luxury tour of Ireland, we recommend around 9 to 10 days.
For a luxury tour of Scotland, we also suggest approximately 9 to 10 days.
If you want to experience both countries, 14 to 15 days provides an excellent overview without making your holiday feel rushed. You can view our Ireland and Scotland Tour for inspiration.
At Ireland & Scotland Luxury Tours, we believe in quality over quantity. It is better to properly experience fewer destinations than spend your holiday constantly travelling between them.
Why You Should Book Your Luxury Tour Early
We recommend planning your tour around 12 months in advance, particularly if you are travelling during the most popular months.
Many of the carefully selected 4 and 5-star hotels we use are smaller properties. Booking early gives us a better opportunity to secure the best rooms, including those with exceptional views.
Ireland & Scotland Luxury Tours is an intentionally small, owner-run business. We limit the number of private tours we operate so that we can maintain the personal service and attention to detail our guests expect.
You can learn more about our approach on our About Ireland & Scotland Luxury Tours page.
Make Your Journey Part of the Experience
A luxury tour should be about much more than sightseeing.
A comfortable hotel, a great night’s sleep, an excellent breakfast and a relaxed itinerary all help you get more from each day.
That is why we encourage guests to set a realistic budget and allow us to create a private itinerary built around comfort, quality and personal service.
