Enchanting Scotland & Ireland: A 15-Day Guided Journey
Sep 8 - 22, 2026
Whisky, Wool & a Wee Bit of Magic ✨
Golden Girls Take Scotland & Ireland by Storm
Castles? ✔️
Whisky tastings? ✔️✔️
Irish music in a centuries-old pub? You bet.
For 15 unforgettable days, we’ll wind our way through Scotland and Ireland, uncovering castles and coastlines, tasting whiskies and Irish coffees, and soaking up the charm of villages, cliffs, and cobblestoned streets. Along the way, you’ll share laughs, stories, and a few toasts with a fabulous group of women who, by the end, may feel more like family.
This isn’t just a tour — it’s an adventure wrapped in history, culture, and plenty of good company. And trust me: when the Golden Girls Getaways crew travels together, every moment becomes a story worth telling.
🌟 Why This Trip Is Special
This isn’t just another tour — it’s a carefully curated journey through two of the most magical destinations in the world: Scotland and Ireland. From whisky tastings in Edinburgh to music-filled nights in Irish pubs, every stop has been handpicked to immerse you in the culture, history, and traditions that make these Celtic lands so unforgettable.
💛 Why It’s Perfect for the Golden Girls
Traveling with like-minded women 55+ means you can relax, feel safe, and truly enjoy yourself. No rushing to keep up, no being left behind. Instead, you’ll share stories, laughter, and spontaneous moments — the kind that turn fellow travelers into lifelong friends. We may begin as strangers, but we’ll part as friends — and that’s the magic of every Golden Girls Getaway.
