We had another big breakthrough recently on an ancestry trip, where one of our travellers was able to find a marriage certificate dating back to the early 17th century! Remarkably, many local libraries in the UK still keep parish records that are up to 500 years old, which you simply cannot find online. A great way to find missing pieces of the ancestry puzzle!

Skara Brae on Orkney is Europe's best preserved Neolithic site, and was only discovered in 1850 after a severe storm exposed the stone structures. A great visit to start the week!

Iona is often regarded as the birthplace of Celtic Christianity in Scotland, and its fascinating history is blended with spectacular beaches and an incredible community of just 186 inhabitants. Accessible only by ferry as a foot passenger, this is a must visit if you get the chance when in Scotland!

Good news! More and more airports are relaxing restrictions on liquids in hand luggage, and speeding up the process so you don't have to remove anything from your bags. So far Dublin, London Heathrow and Edinburgh have all made such changes, with a lot more to follow. So what does this mean? Not only can you expect a quicker experience at airport security, but for those travelling with hand luggage only you can take up to 2 litres of your favourite drinks you may wish to take home with you. We recommend checking the airports you are flying to and from this year to avoid any confusion!

We've been treated to some amazing Northern Lights displays in recent times in the UK and Ireland, and this looks set to continue in 2026 due the current cycle of solar activity. Want to enjoy them on a visit here? Here are some tips:
1️⃣ Season - typically between September and April are the best chances of seeing them, and of course the further north the better!
2️⃣ Download the Aurora app - this gives forecasts and sends notifications when sightings are likely or have been reported in your area
3️⃣ If activity is high, find a dark, northerly facing view ideally with good elevation, or where weather apps show clearer skies to maximize your chances with lower cloud cover
4️⃣Camera settings - setting your camera to night mode with a long exposure (at least 6 seconds ideally) and holding still produces great imagery
5️⃣Patience - they don't always appear when you expect them, but if activity is high and you don't see them then patience really pays off!

So keep a look out next time you travel here, you might just be in for a big surprise...

It's not just the UK and Ireland that we offer tours to. Argentina was the latest country we ran a private tour to, covering Iguazu Falls, Mendoza, Salta and of course Patagonia. It's a phenomenal country to visit, especially during the shoulder seasons. So if spectacular nature and delicious food and drink are your thing why not take a trip here?
