Objective

Our group of American business owners and their partners came to Scotland for a luxurious traditional Scottish experience. They wanted a jam-packed itinerary so they could experience all that the country has to offer.

The group stayed at Gleneagles Townhouse whilst in Edinburgh and the original Gleneagles Hotel whilst exploring the rest of Scotland.

Our Services

The group’s trip began in Edinburgh where they had an exciting itinerary:

  • Private evening tour of the historic Holyrood Palace.
  • Private morning tour of Edinburgh Castle.
  • Private dinner at Royal Yacht Britannia via a vintage red double-decker bus.
  • Private tour and lunch at Hopetoun House.
  • Dinner in some of Edinburgh’s top-rated restaurants.

After enjoying all the capital has to offer, the group set off to explore the rest of Scotland:

  • Bagpiper and drummer welcome to a cosy Scottish pub
  • Private tour of the haunted Glamis Castle followed by lunch in the sunny fairytale castle gardens.
  • Private tour and dinner finished with Beating the Retreat at Scone Palace.

Giving Back

Our group couldn’t decide what they wanted for lunch when in Edinburgh, so we pre-ordered an additional 10 meals that could be switched out as necessary. As we didn’t want them to go to waste, we worked with Contini CannonBall and the City of Edinburgh Council – Leith Street and Castlecliff (Housing Support Services) to donate the meals to people in need in Edinburgh.

Client Feedback

“We had around 20 couples for a 5-night trip that started in Edinburgh and ended at Gleneagles. From executing the site visit and suggesting top notch experiences to coordinating all the details down to the gifts and transportation, we felt very well taken care of during all aspects of the planning and execution. We would definitely recommend Kate and her team.’’
