CIE Tours, a tour operator of guided vacations to Ireland and Britain, has introduced the new "2024 Scottish Daytripper" itinerary available for departures starting March 2024. This tour provides travelers an opportunity to explore the landscapes of Scotland in a series of daytrips with the convenience of a single “home” hotel.
The six-day itinerary begins in Glasgow, where guests will stay in The Glasgow Grosvenor Hotel in the heart of the city’s West End area. After a tour of the city’s highlights, travelers venture out on a whisky walking tour with visits to two pubs.
The next five days offer a mix of stunning scenery, ancient castles, villages and cities, making it an ideal choice for guests looking to immerse themselves in a variety of sights. Stops along the way include a step back in time to the world of Scotland’s Renaissance kings and queens at Stirling Castle; the highland and lowland landscape of the Isle of Arran; Edinburgh Castle, home to the Scottish Crown Jewels; a scenic cruise around Loch Lomond; and much more.
A daytripper-style itinerary blends group excursions with built-in free time for individual exploration. Throughout the trip, the group stays in Glasgow. Plus, CIE Tours offers the option to extend the vacation with pre- or post-nights in Glasgow with negotiated hotel rates for added convenience and flexibility.
Tip: Guests who book by August 31, 2023, can enjoy savings of $200 per couple on the Scottish Daytripper tour with CIE Tours’ "Early Bird Discount."
CIE Tours offers a full lineup of itineraries with the daytripper format giving travelers more time to explore destinations without the need to pack and unpack along the way. Also new for 2024, CIE Tours’ "Tuscan Treasures with Cinque Terre" guided vacation takes guests on an eight-day journey through the Italian countryside with Montecatini Terme as the base to explore. Other daytripper style options include six days based in London with the "London Daytripper" or a week staying in the village of Adare on the "Ireland South Daytripper."
CIE Tours offers more than 40 escorted tour itineraries to Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales, Iceland and Italy in 2024.
