Explore the North
Explore the beauty of Scotland outside the summer season! In late summer and autumn, the landscape takes on a beautiful palette of colours and is perhaps at its most beautiful. This is the ideal time to explore the country at your own pace, without the crowds of the high season. Fewer tourists means more peace and quiet to enjoy the surroundings.
In addition, October offers a unique opportunity to see the Northern Lights. But even without this natural phenomenon, the starry sky in autumn is clear and impressive. For walkers, Aberdeenshire and Perthshire are highly recommended, with beautiful autumn forests and great routes to discover.
Scotland has something special to offer in every season. Book your crossing now and ensure a relaxed travel experience to experience this beautiful country for yourself!
