Scotland · Europe
Castles, coastline and single malt — a compact country with an outsized amount of landscape.
Scotland packs an improbable range into a country you can drive across in a day: the Georgian order of Edinburgh, the industrial reinvention of Glasgow, the long empty roads of the Highlands and a west coast of islands that feels like the edge of Europe. It is one of the easiest places in the world to build a trip that mixes city culture with genuine wilderness, and the whisky regions give the itinerary a natural spine.
