The Journey at a Glance
Begin in Edinburgh, Scotland’s cultural heart, where a warm VIP welcome and a stay at the Balmoral hotel set the tone for thoughtful luxury. Explore cobbled streets and castle ramparts, dine in hidden taverns and venture into the wilderness of Loch Lomond for a day of Highland storytelling and rugged beauty.
Then cross the Irish Sea to Dublin, where Georgian grace meets contemporary rhythm. At The Merrion, elegant suites and art-filled halls provide a haven between explorations. Discover Ireland’s capital through its history, humour and hospitality – from rare manuscripts to roaring fires and speakeasy secrets.
