Up 'n About Scotland specialises in small-group and private tours led by a qualified Mountain Leader for hiking tours and experienced driver/guides for sightseeing trips. We focus on providing a more personal experience, combining Scotland's famous landmarks with lesser-known locations, local knowledge and flexible itineraries.

Our small-group tours are limited to a maximum of 8 guests, creating a more relaxed and personal experience than large coach tours. Private tours are available for couples, families and small groups.

Tour prices include transport and guiding throughout the tour. Any additional inclusions or exclusions are clearly listed on each tour page or discussed during emails.

Booking directly means you'll deal directly with your guide, receive the latest availability and get personalised advice on choosing the right tour for your trip.

Families are welcome on many of our tours. If you're travelling with children, get in touch and we'll recommend the most suitable options.

Yes. Private tours are one of our most popular options and can be tailored to your interests, whether that's history, castles, hiking, whisky, photography, Outlander locations or hidden Highland gems.

Small groups allow more flexibility, more opportunities for photos, and a more personal experience. Unlike large coach tours, we can spend more time enjoying Scotland and less time waiting for large groups to move around.

Most sightseeing tours are suitable for anyone with a reasonable level of mobility. Hiking tours vary in difficulty, and we'll always explain what's involved before you book.

This is Scotland, so a little rain is always possible! Our tours operate in most weather conditions, and often Scotland's landscapes look their most dramatic when the weather changes. We recommend bringing waterproof clothing and suitable footwear.
