A combination of sailing, playing music and visiting famous whiskey distilleries. The highlight is the unique Jura music Festival. On this Music and Whiskey trip Scotland there will be at least two good musicians who can inspire others and who you can enjoy with a glass of life water (whiskey) in hand. Live music with the musicians every day, in the evening in the local pub or on the ship. Anyone who cares about folk music, whiskey and Scotland can join in and go.
Of course, sailing has not become secondary during the entire journey. Enthusiasts of the beautiful Scottish nature and / or sailing on this impressive sailing ship are no doubt welcome on board. Come aboard and be seduced by countless new, unforgettable experiences.
