Our program starts and finishes in Glasgow, and includes accommodation for two nights in the south, return coach travel between Glasgow and Orkney, six nights accommodation on a bed & breakfast basis in Orkney, a full island tour and a day trip to an out island. Additionally you will be eligible to participate in the Gala Dinner, and access to the genealogical research of the Family History Society.
Due to some space constraints in Orkney, participation in the event will be limited to approximately 350 home-comers, we would suggest that you book as soon as possible!
We are not including airfares to/from Scotland because participants will be coming from such a wide variety of centres. We will, however, be delighted to assist with making reservations and have attractive airfares available from both the US and Canada. It is also possible to use frequent flyer points, and most airlines will allow you to book these tickets from 11 months prior to departure.
