Our clients began their journey in Edinburgh, immersing themselves in the city’s medieval splendor while staying at The Balmoral Hotel. Between visits to historic sites like Edinburgh Castle and tracing familial roots through cobbled streets, they indulged in Michelin-starred culinary experiences that showcased the finest in modern Scottish cuisine. Venturing beyond the capital, they arrived at the storied links of St. Andrews, where the gentleman in the party fulfilled a lifelong dream by golfing the legendary Old Course. Further north, they paid a visit to Balmoral Castle—famed as a cherished retreat of the late Queen Elizabeth II—and partook in countless Scotch tastings that deepened their appreciation for Scotland’s most iconic spirit.
Continuing their sojourn, they found respite at the eccentric Fife Arms in Braemar, a cultural haven boasting art, history, and idyllic Highland panoramas. Tennis, a Land Rover experience, and Tartan designing were major highlights of this area. Making their way to the prestigious Gleneagles estate, they reveled in championship golf, a thrilling falconry experience, and an exploration of neighboring locales. The ladies in the group took a special detour to Drummond Castle, recently in the international spotlight as the site of a Christian Dior fashion show. Throughout this extraordinary journey, we curated an immersive connection to their ancestry, unveiling a meticulously researched family tree and presenting a custom watercolor painting capturing the spirit of their ancestral homeland. In their last days, they savored luxurious spa treatments and fine dining against the rolling Perthshire hills—a fitting finale to a trip defined by personal discovery, regal heritage, and the timeless charm of Scotland.
