Scottish Highlands and the Caledonian Canal | July 10 - 21, 2026

Join alumni and friends from July 10 to 21, 2026, for an exploration of Scotland. From the warm, welcoming city of Edinburgh to the wild, rugged beauty of the Kyle of Lochalsh, enjoy days filled with spectacular scenery, fascinating engineering, and distinctively Scottish culture and cuisine as you cruise for seven nights aboard the classic Lord of the Glen.
 

Experience Scotland in all its great variety. Tour Scone Palace, which contains needlepoint created by Mary Queen of Scots, a desk used by Marie Antoinette, and the bedroom where Queen Victoria slept while visiting. The surrounding grounds include 100 acres of woodland gardens and a star-shaped maze patrolled by peacocks. In tiny Knoydart, savor a pint in a snuggery the Guinness Book of World Records calls the “most remote pub in mainland Britain.” 

Shared with participants from cosponsoring associations, space is limited on this intimate group journey. Please contact the Alumni Travel Study Program at 866-325-8664 or [email protected] for more details and to book now while choice accommodations are available.
