Journeying to the UK? There’s always something new (or old) to see!
October is a history lover’s delight with opportunities to learn everything from the Roman influences at Hadrian’s Wall to Viking and Neolithic settlements in Scotland. Or maybe you'd like to dive into the nation's industrial heritage at the seaside county of Cornwall. Pair your history lesson days with whiskey-filled nights alongside hearty pub fare and warm companionship (available no matter what part of the country you’re in).

Highlights of Scotland

Wonderful trip and really great itinerary. Isle of Skye is such a great highlight and having extra time to explore on our own was great. Also, Aidan was the best guide!

Richard · Traveled October 2023
If you love walking through beautiful and spectacular landscapes and you’re also into discovering history first-hand, this is the trip for you. The daily walking is very well planned, the visits to historical sites are fascinating, and the accommodation is great. We were lucky to have a fabulous leader and some very benign weather. Loved it.

Valerie · Traveled October 2023
The Orkney Islands are beautiful to the eye and the soul. Our guide was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. Care for the groups was definitely his priority and Alistair managed to accomplish this without being instructive. The meals and spirits of the island should not be missed.

The Orkney Islands were spectacular and our tour guide John made the trip with his knowledge of the history of the islands and the great walks he took us on. I really feel like we explored the islands in a short space of time and would definitely go back.
