The Best of Scotland with Marta Shakhazizian and Emily Burks
Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on August 3, 2026.
From misty glens, mysterious lochs, and brooding castles to cozy pubs bursting with foot-tapping trad music, Scotland teems with beautiful scenery and irrepressible spirit. After falling in love with this faraway corner of Britain on our Best of Scotland tour, travel advisor Marta Shakhazizian and MNT host Emily Burks team up to report back on the must-sees. We sail to the windswept Isle of Iona (birthplace of the Book of Kells), march up the Royal Mile to imposing Edinburgh Castle, and marvel as sheepdogs swiftly corral their herd at the whistle of a shepherd. Plus, we pick up tips for navigating the rugged roads of the Isle of Skye by car.
