It's never been easier to explore Scotland on a special interest tour, thanks to new flight inclusive packages launched by specialist tour operator, Brightwater Holidays.

Offering more flexibility than ever before, for the first time, 16 of its 25 tours in the Scotland programme are now on sale including domestic flights from a range of regional airports. 

These new air-inclusive packages have been designed to include same-day flights, enabling guests to fly to Scotland and be transferred to the nearest tour pick-up point. Previously, Brightwater Holidays would add flights on an individual, tailormade basis or customers could choose to make their own way.  All tours also operate as coach breaks with Scottish pick-ups. 

2025 flight-inclusive packages include:
