A tradition rooted in Scottish identity, the gathering of the clans becomes a gathering of nations, allies, friends, and kindred spirits. The call has gone out and the call will be answered in a brand-new Tattoo performing in the summer of 2026.

A Call to Gather invites audiences to unite at The Edinburgh Castle Arena for an unforgettable evening of spectacle, storytelling, and celebration. With the Royal Air Force as the lead service, the 2026 Tattoo will honour the power of connection, and the role culture plays in bringing us together.
Expect a breathtaking blend of music, dance, and precision display as performers from across the globe come together in a cathedral of light and sound.

Expect stirring poetry, cinematic storytelling, and world-class talent, the Tattoo continues to push the boundaries of live performance.

With a unique ability to evoke the emotions and stir the senses like nothing else, the Tattoo will wow audiences once again. You will experience an exceptional mix of military precision, awe-inspiring dance and sparkling musical entertainment, intertwined with state-of the-art projection, lighting and exciting creative elements.

Last Sunday, we ran our very first Highland Cow Farm Experience from Greenock… and it couldn’t have gone better.

6 guests joined us on the morning session and had a fantastic time meeting the fold (that’s the name for a group of Highland cows), learning about Scottish farming and rural life, and getting up close to the farm’s animals, including the hard-working sheepdogs.

A truly authentic experience and a brilliant start for this new excursion.

Booked a shore excursion through Viator or GetYourGuide?

Here’s the question many cruise guests don’t think to ask until it really matters:

What happens if your ship doesn’t dock on the day of arrival?

With large online booking platforms, the answer often depends on which excursion you booked, which cancellation policy applies, and whether you fall inside a strict cut-off window. That’s not always clear at the time of booking — and we’ve seen first-hand how confusing that can be for cruise guests.

That’s exactly why we do things differently.

At Shore Excursion Scotland, our policy is designed specifically for cruising — not adapted from land-based tours.

✔️ A clear and generous Shore Excursion Guarantee
✔️ Built around the realities of cruise itineraries
✔️ No claims forms, paperwork, or third-party verification
✔️ Small-group excursions with personal service
✔️ Created by a local British Isles specialist who understands cruise operations

We don’t expect cruise guests to decode cancellation policies or worry about fine print. Our guarantee is built in from the start, so you know exactly where you stand before you book.

Read our latest blog to see why the Shore Excursion Scotland Guarantee is one of the fairest and most transparent on the market — and why booking with us means you’re genuinely covered.

Cruising the British Isles? Learn why the Shore Excursion Scotland Guarantee is one of the fairest on the market. We explain how missed port calls are handled, how our policy compares to major booking platforms, and why booking with a local expert gives you confidence before you sail.
