Castles & coastline
Stone that's been standing since before your ex was born. Lochs, glens, and the drive everyone means when they say 'the Highlands.'
Chasing Skirts in Scotland
Seven nights in Scotland for women with excellent taste and zero apologies.
- October 2026 · dates announced July 22
- Maximum 12 women
- Edinburgh + the Highlands
How this started
Scotland made Boston fall in love with an entire country.
Over the summer the Tartan Army took over our city — kilts on the Orange Line, bagpipes outside Fenway, and the friendliest invasion Boston has ever surrendered to. Some of us never quite recovered. So we're going to the source.
This is not a tour. It's a small band of women, one very good itinerary, and a country that flirts back.
The vibe
Castles by day. Pub fires by night.
The good whisky
Two proper distillery visits with the people who make it — whether you're a collector or you've only ever ordered 'whatever's fine.'
Live music & locals
Pub sessions, ceilidh energy, and rooms where strangers become the story you tell at brunch for years.
The shape of a day
One plan a day. The rest is yours.
- Morning
- The anchor. The castle, the distillery, the boat on the loch — the thing worth setting an alarm for.
- Afternoon
- Yours. Wander, shop, nap, write, find a tearoom. Nobody counts you.
- Evening
- Together, if you want. Dinner and whatever the night turns into. 'Tonight is optional' is a rule, not an apology.
Coming alone?
Most of us are. That's the point.
Your own room, if you want it
Private room available for a supplement — or thoughtful roommate matching (we ask about snoring; we're not amateurs).
Twelve women, maximum
Small enough that no one gets lost, big enough that you're not stuck at one table all week.
A real host, the whole time
Not an app, not a rep who vanishes after check-in. Reed plans it, hosts it, and is at the table.
Grown-up safety, quietly handled
Vetted local partners, a group plan for every night out, and logistics you never have to think about.
Your host
Hi, I'm Reed.
Broadcast media veteran, professional gatherer of brilliant women, owner of one well-stamped passport. I've spent my career on stages and in rooms making strangers feel like old friends — this trip is that, with better scenery and a dram in hand.
