Meet Britt: My Journey to Scotland - A Personal Tale of Adventure and Discovery

Updated: Apr 20

Discovering Scotland's Magic


In early 2017, I found myself trapped in a fluorescent lit beige cubicle 45 min south of Boston in Taunton, MA. Having grown up on the south shore all my life, I didn’t have a passport, had never taken any meaningful trips, and couldn’t fathom how I ever would—between work, adulting, and funds. Honestly, I was miserable.


Then, midway through that year, a sudden sense of dread hit me. I thought, “To hell with this!” So, I got myself a CapitalOne Venture travel card. I booked my first international flight (and whatever an Airbnb was) with that card. I also set about getting my passport—hopefully in time—for my four-day city break to Edinburgh for the Halloween/Samhuinn Fire Festival and my “West Highlands Lochs & Castles” tour.


The Excitement of Travel


Thankfully, my passport arrived just in time! I excitedly—and anxiously—boarded my flight late one evening after one of my best friends' weddings. I was improperly dressed for a Scottish autumn, sporting a sprained left foot from going too hard with the Cotton Eyed Joe in 4" red suede heels after a few too many whiskey sours.


But the moment I set foot in Scotland, I knew I belonged here. It pulled me in instantly and hasn’t let go since.


A Memorable Tour Experience


On day two of my city break, I was limping for two miles, clutching an iced coffee and a scone desperately to my chest. I was ten minutes late for my Rabbie's tour. When I finally arrived, I was greeted by my tall, blue-eyed, kilted, deep-voiced Scottish tour guide. With a cheeky smile, he said, “You must be Britt then; looks like you’ll be my co-pilot for the day.”


I spent the rest of that day trying to wrap my head around how this was suddenly my life. I couldn’t imagine going back to my old one.


The Journey Continues


Fast forward several years, two weddings across two countries, and a LOT of stories and struggles. Here I am, helping that very same tour guide bring his charm, knowledge, cheeky nature, and love of his homeland to every one of our clients.


Why Choose a Private Tour?


If you’re wondering why you should consider a private tour of Scotland, let me tell you! A personalized experience allows you to explore at your own pace. You can linger at that stunning loch or skip the tourist traps. It’s all about what you want to see and do.


Imagine standing on the shores of Loch Ness, feeling the mist on your face, and knowing you’re not just another face in the crowd. You’re part of the story.


The Beauty of Scotland


Scotland is a land of breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and vibrant culture. From the rugged Highlands to the charming streets of Edinburgh, every corner has a tale to tell. And trust me, you’ll want to hear them all.


Creating Lasting Memories


When you embark on a private tour, you’re not just ticking off items on a checklist. You’re creating lasting memories. You might find yourself sharing a laugh with your guide over a plate of haggis or marveling at the beauty of a hidden castle.
