Scotland: Air Like Cold Champagne

Today’s guest is Vikki, who is the Managing Director for MacLean and Bruce, a small luxury travel business in Scotland. MacLean and Bruce focus on providing authentic Scottish experiences, off the beaten track, making Vikki the ideal guest to join Honor on this week’s podcast.

Listen to Vikki’s smooth Scottish accent, as she guides us through Scotland in the Low Seasons: the advantages and disadvantages to Low Season Travel, the best places to visit and top tips from someone on the inside. Vikki advises that you mix with the locals, dress appropriately and appreciate the great outdoors.

Come to Scotland between November and April to experience a more authentic side of Scotland, where over-tourism fatigue has passed and a more natural and gentle pace emerges.
