My wife and I are looking to have a vacation in Scotland and we’re trying to figure out what we should plan. We are American but don’t care for tourists traveling. I love to feel a more realistic local experience. My favorite memories of our Ireland trip are small town pubs and rural scenic places. The museums like the one in Trinity College was good too. I enjoyed walking the backstreets of Dublin and finding the Stags Head pub.

Thank you for any advice.

    If you go to Glasgow I’d recommend visiting the burrell collection.

    Also nearby is shaws bar. I can’t recommend this enough. It’s as authenticly scottish and friendly a place as you can ever hope to spend an evening. Definitely off the tourist trail.
