--------------------
Note: You will notice some companies mention FIT. This means Free and Independent Traveller. Essentially, it means you are travelling independently, as a couple or family group for example, by self drive car or public transport on a pre-booked tour individually planned to suit you rather than as part of an organised coach tour when you have to follow the fixed route of the group. Some companies have brochures they can send you which feature car tour suggestions for you to follow, all can make individual arrangements for you.
From overseas, replace first 0 with UK country code +44.

The members of the SDMA look forward to being of assistance and welcoming you to Scotland!
