I love a good castle. Crumbling ruins, ridiculously grand fortresses, castles perched on cliffs like someone was actively trying to make life difficult. I’ll take them all. Scotland has had thousands built, destroyed, rebuilt, and abandoned throughout its history, and […]
Skye is a bit of an interesting one, in terms of ferries. Unlike most of Scotland’s other islands, you don’t actually need a ferry to get there. You can simply drive across the Skye Bridge. But depending on where your […]
For a place that gets so little publicity (probably because they’re overshadowed by the Faroe Islands, the Isle of Mull boasts some top-notch Scotland sightseeing. The beaches on the Isle of Mull, especially, are worth a visit. Whether you’re looking […]
Scotland is loaded with natural beauty and dramatic landscapes, and the Isle of Mull is no exception. It’s a great place to sharpen your photography skills or just bask in the wonder of lush forests and salty sea breezes. Or […]

As much as I enjoyed my visit to Glasgow, the average tourist doesn’t really need to spend a lot of time there. Not unless you want to do a really deep dive. But it’s still a great launching point for […]
Let me be real with you. Even though I absolutely loved my Scotland road trip, I didn’t do any of the driving. I left that all up to Jeff. And driving through Scotland is no walk in the park—lots of […]
