Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider exploring more of Scotland's islands such as Harris and Lewis, Mull, and Islay. If you have less time, consider cutting out some of the locations or activities that are not of interest to you. Keep in mind that some of the locations may be closed during the off-season, so it's important to check ahead of time. Also, make sure to pack appropriately for the weather and outdoor activities.
