About Me

Ruthven Barracks. Scotland
Ruthven Barracks. Scotland

Great stories don’t come from staying home.  I want you to travel well  and with confidence to the UK, Northern Ireland and Ireland so that you can come home and share your great travel stories.  I will help you navigate the process by getting to know you and understand what you would like to see and do and in what style, and then figure out how to fit that into your budget with an itinerary created specifically for you.   Your time is precious, so allow me to do the time consuming research to create travel solutions that will fit your vacation vision.

My dad was born in Scotland so travelling there for over fifty years to visit family  has created a great love for a country that is near and dear to my heart.  Travelling there almost twice every year for family and work has given me an extensive knowledge of this country and helped me build strong relationships with my travel partners there who I know are going to look after my clients when they are travelling in country.  This kind of expertise of a country allows me to create some incredibly unique experiences for my clients.    
 
I lived and went to school in London, England for a year as part of an experience that my university was offering.  Theatre, art, music and trips outside London also gave me a love for this city and country.  Over the years I have returned many times to enjoy this city and explore other areas of England and Wales which help me create unique itineraries and experiences for my clients.  Places like the beautiful Lake District, the charming Cotswold villages where time seems to stand still, historic York, the vibrant university towns of Cambridge and Oxford, Shakespearean Stratford-upon-Avon, ancient sites like Stonehenge and Avebury just to name some of England's top visitor destinations.

Hitching around Ireland and Northern Ireland with a friend in the 90's was a once in a lifetime experience that allowed me to fall in love with this country's landscapes, history and its friendly people.  I couldn't just visit once and repeated visits almost yearly help me discover more and more hidden gems and off the beaten path experiences which I use to help guide my clients wanting to have their own Ireland adventure.  

My passion is creating unique itineraries for my clients in the UK and Ireland that are completely tailored to their wants, interests and budget. I look forward to being your guide for all your UK and Ireland travel needs.   I have planned a rail itinerary for a young lady in her twenties travelling for five weeks using a 15 day rail pass and staying at youth hostels an bed & breakfasts as her travels took her throughout England, Wales and on to Scotland.  I especially enjoy helping families and groups seeking adventurous vacations connect in fresh ways, designing an itinerary that is the perfect fit for them all.  Multigenerational travel is especially close to my heart as I enjoy travelling with my children, my parents and my siblings to celebrate special events and milestones in our lives.  In the past I have had the pleasure of planning intimate Outlander tours in Scotland for fans of theI show, self catering/self drive week long stays in a Scottish castle for families and groups of friends with add on activities, a custom curated whisky tour for a family of eight and a multigenerational trip to Ireland that included ancestry stops, incredible scenery, traditional music and some very unique food and cooking experiences. These trips only help to strengthen the bonds between the generations and friends.  I love having a role in helping others make that happen.

 I look forward to being your guide for all your UK and Ireland travel needs.

Life changing Trip
Reviewed By Vacations Are Forever - Burlington Ontario | Traveled to Vietnam ~ East and Southeast Asia
Tammie was professional and was so organized. I must say I was skeptical of booking with someone I didn’t meet with. However, She had things so organized and was quick to retrieve answers to anything I asked. It was a big trip for us so our anxieties were a bit higher than usual but Tammie quickly had us at ease. She even went so far as to email us when our flights were available to check in on. I would not hesitate to book with Tammie again and I have already recommeded her to friends.

Tammie made a real difference
Reviewed By JudyL - Montreal | Traveled to England | Europe
I heard about Tammie from a good friend who had just come back from a wonderful trip to Ireland. I was recovering from health issues at the time, and my friend suggested that I call Tammie because she would see to everything for this trip. She was so right. Tammie put me at my ease from the first phone call, when I felt a little silly about how unclear I was about what I wanted from my trip. She was so helpful in sorting it all out and asking the right questions to create a trip proposal that was exactly what we were looking for. She organized airport transfers and great accommodations in London. We were close to everything. We loved our tour to the West Country in England. Our tour guide, Julia, was brilliant and always mindful of each of us on the tour. Wonderful scenery and experiences! As someone who usually does all of her own bookings with variable success, I was delighted to work with Tammie. Tammie thought of everything and set up such a smooth experience for us. From finding the right tour, arranging seamless transfers, and booking comfortable accommodations, Tammie made our trip memorable. Thank you Tammie!!!

A dream come true!
Reviewed By Scotland forever - Tampa Florida | Traveled to Scotland | Europe
This trip was one that had been in the making for years, thinking talking and hoping one day we as a family could go. While looking at tours my sister and brother in law came upon Tammie who specializes in Scotland vacations. We contacted her and it was the best thing we could have done! Tammie is so personable, knowledgeable and very keen to get exactly what you , her client wants. She was easy to work with , easy to contact for questions and very quick to return calls.We made a list of places that were non negotiable and also places we would all like to see if possible. She managed to squeeze everything in and do it within the given budget. We had a private driver who was fantastic! He goes above and beyond, is knowledgeable about the areas toured . I would highly recommend Neil and taking a custom tour.We started our trip In Glasgow and took a tour with a company called Scotland’s Wild and it was truly amazing! Our driver was James who was so full of historical information, entertaining, and even had music to set the scenes of our locations while driving. The day was Rainey and overcast but it only enhanced the beauty of the highlands with shades of greens and cloudy mists. next day met our driver Neil to continue onto Paisley to see where our ancestors had lived.Our trip consisted of twelve days of unforgettable tours to Castles , whisky distilleries, making a Scottish traditional dinner with a local woman , one of my favorites which I so highly recommend was dinner and lodging at theDownright Gabbler an experience not to be missed. We visited a working farm, had lunch in a beautiful historic manor and felted with a local artisan while the guys did archery. Tammie created such a wonderful itinerary for us , she booked and selected our hotels, train transportation, tours, etc.! It takes a lot of pressure off especially never having been to Scotland before and allowed us to just enjoy the trip to the fullest.

Family Group Trip to Scotland Unforgettable!
Working with Tammie on our recent two week tour of Scotland was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Tammie ensured all our accommodations were good quality and tailored to our needs. She offered recommendations that greatly enriched our Highland adventure. The one we cherish most was the hotel we stayed in at Glencoe - it was just amazing. The setting was breath-taking, the food couldn’t have been tastier, the staff couldn’t be more friendly & helpful, and we even attended a live “session” of traditional music with pipes, flute and tin whistles, bodran, “squeeze box”, guitars, and great singing, accompanied by cask brews and ciders! Tammie recommended we purchase a seven day Explorer Pass. saving us a significant amount of money on entrance fees. Tammie arranged local travel expert, Neil, to be our direct contact in Scotland as he promptly responded to our texts, which was very reassuring, and immediately resolved a minor issue for us. An unforgettable stress free trip!
