Suggested Packing List

Scotland is a country of casual, courageous adventurers, and the attire most guests  wear (as well as locals) reflects that!

Packing Suggestions:

o Sweaters, sweatshirts, or jumpers that can be worn in layers

o Jeans or casual pants for hiking and exploring

o T-shirts or casual shirts to wear under sweaters or jumpers

o Waterproof, warm outerwear jacket, perhaps with a lining that can be removed

o All-weather vest or sleeveless body warmer

o Warm socks -  a pair for each day and a few extra just in case…

o Sleepwear and robe

o Waterproof hiking boots or shoes

o Trainers or walking shoes

o Scarf and gloves (all times of the year)

o Personal toiletry/grooming items

o Medication

o Currency - Great British Pounds

Optional:  1 nice evening outfit such as …

o   Slacks, shirt, nice shoes or boots

o   Dress or skirt &  blouse, dress boots and tights

Optional: face cloth and top sheet …

o   Face cloths or washrags

  • Scotland hotels and guest houses provide bath towel and hand towels, but do not offer small face cloths

o   Top bedding sheet

  • Scotland hotels and guest houses provide a bottom fitted bedsheet and lovely duvet comforters, but they do not often provide a top, flat bedsheet

Optional: sturdy umbrella …

o   Most guests (and locals) find a “brolly” a bit inconvenient

o   Most prefer a jacket with a hood instead of an umbrella so both hands are free

NOTE:  While our Mercedes V-Class van and Audi Q7 tour vehicles are spacious and comfortable, if there are 4-6 in your group, we strongly suggest each person limit themselves to 1 suitcase and 1 backpack or personal item in order to have adequate space in the vehicle for both 4-6 guests and their luggage.
