Join me for Beyond The Borders:
A Celtic Music Tour of Scotland
Oct. 17-27, 2026
View of Edinburgh from Calton Hill with Castle in the distance
Why “Musical?” Because we'll not only:
- explore the unrivaled, relaxed beauty of the Borders,
- traveling from East to West through this lesser explored region of Scotland we’ll experience everything you’d expect from an adventure across this bountiful country, and into England,
- follow in the footsteps of Scotland’s two great legendary warriors: William Wallace and Robert The Bruce,
- then travel south to explore the sights and lands that these two men fought for.
- then leaving Stirling we’ll first head for Rosslyn Chapel where we can hear the tales of the Knights Templar before settling down in Peebles for a three night stay,
- from Peebles we’ll explore along the River Tweed and take in the Great Map of Scotland as well as learning about the historic industries of the borders: farming, mining and textiles.
- plus Much More - please download the itinerary or click over to the tour company site.
We’ll also:
- enjoy several private concerts with local Celtic musicians
- and even one or two with me…
- and other musicians in our group!
