    April

    Asked on April 23rd, 2025

    My fiance and I are getting married November 1st. We were looking at one of the Scotland/Ireland trips in November 2025. We did want to see Castle Stuart about 30 minutes outside of Inverness. Is that something that could be accommodated on this tour?

    Tour Details
    • ContikiOperatorWritten April 2025

      Castle Stuart is not included in this tour's itinerary, you may discuss with the Trip Manager during the tour to explore the possibility of visiting the site on your own during any available free time. However, please note that this location cannot be added to the official tour schedule.
