Wildlife holidays in Scotland
If you associate wildlife watching with geography field trips or up at dawn bird watchers, Scotland wildlife holidays will convert you. But the secret is to get a top guide. A local expert knows exactly where and when to spot all the untamed treats such as golden eagles or red deer, whales or dolphins. And teach you about their journeys in this beautifully biodiverse country.
