Geographically, Scotland occupies the northern section of the island of Great Britain, and is surrounded by the Irish Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. A little known fact is that Scotland is comprised of more than 600 islands including the Hebrides and famous coastal areas such as Isle and Man. Scotland is divided into approximately three dozen regions or council areas. Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland and a major tourist hub. The country's largest city is Glasgow. Other cities include Inverness, Dundee, Aberdeen, Saint Andrews and Stirling. English is the national language of Scotland, however Scots Gaelic is the oldest continuously used language in Scotland.
Most international visitors to Scotland arrive at Glasgow International Airport or on connecting flights into Edinburgh Airport or Aberdeen. For travelers originating from within England or Great Britain, there are a number of domestic air carriers that offer frequent, daily service through the country’s 39 airports. Another mode of transportation is offered by Scotland Railway, which operates in conjunction with BritRail. The railway system in Scotland is a cost effective and wonderful way to see the countryside and enjoy the splendid landscape, with fabulous scenic routes offered on The West Highland, The Kyle, and the Highland Lines. One of our favorites excursions is the train ride from Edinburgh to Dundee.
