Currently there are no Covid restrictions in either Ireland or Scotland. You do not have to test or have proof of vaccination to enter either country. The US has also lifted it's testing requirements to enter the US in June 2022.
Helpful info for traveling to Scotland & Ireland:
- Purchase a UK outlet converter to charge phones & computers. These generally aren't compatible with higher voltage things like hair dryers or flat irons. All our Air BnB will have access to hair dryers to use & Jenny has a UK flat iron she is bringing.
- You can have cell services in Scotland. Most major carriers like Verizon or AT&T provide cell service for $10 per day. You just have to set it up with your carrier before your trip. This is super-helpful when you are with a group and need to meet up if we split up in a certain location. It takes a lot of the stress out of traveling when you have access to just call the people you are traveling with.

Hi there! We are SO incredibly excited to take you on a tour to Scotland in the summer of 2024!
Here are some things you might want to know about Andrew & me and our travel style:
-
I have a deep love for the people of Scotland. My mom was born and raised in Dundee, Scotland. So for the past 25 years, I’ve spent lots of time traveling around Scotland visiting family and friends, and exploring some of the most beautiful parts of the country.
-
I LOVE photographing the beautiful lands I travel to. I love photographing the people I travel to those lands with as well! Be prepared to get your picture taken and to get access to ALL my photos to have after your trip!
-
I am a HUGE advocate of balancing sightseeing & having time to explore, relax and enjoy delicious food along the way.. and a little shopping too! We'll include some ‘hill walking’ aka hiking (nothing too hard), being in nature, exploring castles and learning a little bit of Scottish history. We want you to be able to feel the hospitality & culture of Scotland and hopefully understand how amazing the people are and see how proud they are of their centuries old culture.
-
Andrew & I have LOTS of experience driving on the left side of the road and navigating the crazy narrow roads & roundabouts. You just get to sit back and enjoy all the amazing scenery along the way! We’ll get you to where you need to go safely!
