On sale now for 2026 travel, this extraordinary journey proves that sustainability and luxury can co-exist, offering travellers rare access, authentic experiences, and a positive impact on Scotland’s communities and landscapes.
When creating Spectacular Scotland, Luxury Gold and Visit Scotland focused on developing an itinerary that actively combats overtourism, champions sustainable suppliers and highlights lesser-known regions deserving of economic support.
Kelly Jackson, Managing Director, Luxury Gold, EMEA said: “By working hand-in-hand with Visit Scotland, we have reimagined what luxury travel can and should be. Spectacular Scotland allows guests to experience the very best of Scotland while contributing to its preservation for future generations.”
Journey Highlights:
Authentic MAKE TRAVEL MATTERTM Experiences
Each MAKE TRAVEL MATTERTM Experience on the itinerary aligns with a specific United Nations Sustainable Development Goal, ensuring every guest experience contributes to a larger global purpose:
- Highland Tartan Demonstration – Guests visit Prickly Thistle, a women-run tartan weaving mill in the Highlands reviving ancestral techniques and creating sustainable textiles. This experience supports Goal 11: Sustainable Cities & Communities
- Glencoe with a Wildlife Ranger – A guided visit to Glencoe National Nature Reserve, focusing on indigenous species restoration and habitat protection and directly supporting Goal 15: Life on Land
- Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust – On the Isle of Mull, guests learn about marine conservation efforts and directly support research protecting local marine life, as well as Goal 14: Life Below Water
Combatting Overtourism
In response to growing concerns about overtourism, Spectacular Scotland was designed to explore Scotland’s lesser-visited gems:
- Cairngorms National Park – Where tourism supports sustainable economic growth and conservation efforts
- Dunrobin Castle and Loch Fleet National Nature Reserve – Offering guests a quieter, nature-focused alternative to busier tourist hubs like Inverness
Sustainable Dining Experiences
- Welcome Dinner at Wedgwood Restaurant – Guests enjoy a menu crafted with locally sourced and hand-foraged ingredients. Owners Lisa and Paul Wedgwood personally engage with diners, sharing the story behind their sustainable sourcing practices
Responsible Stays
