Patrick McGill
Europe and United Kingdom Travel Specialist
Stirling Castle, Scotland
I am your travel expert travel agent specializing in memorable journeys through Europe and the United Kingdom. I have an unwavering passion for exploration and a deep appreciation for these magnificent destinations' diverse cultures and rich histories.
My perspective on European Travel is this: When you travel to Europe, it's more than just "getting away", it's about "getting in touch" - with the world we live in and the people in it. And by connecting with our world, we connect with ourselves.
I am here to help you make that connection.
My love for travel began when I first went to Germany on a 3-year military assignment. It continued in my business career, working for international companies. Over a lifetime, I have lived, worked and traveled extensively throughout Europe and the United Kingdom.
Whether you dream of strolling through the picturesque streets of Paris, marveling at the ancient wonders of Rome, or discovering the mystical landscapes of the Scottish Highlands, I have done all of these and more.
I understand that every traveler has their own vision of the perfect European getaway. My concept to travel is that when we travel, we make connections with the places we visit. And when we experience the places we visit, we enrich ourselves.
Whether you seek a trip focused on art, history, cuisine, ancestry, or just a stroll through historic towns and beautiful landscapes, I will work closely with you to understand your desires, preferences, and budget. With my in-depth knowledge of the region's vibrant culture, art, architecture, and cuisine, I will craft an itinerary allowing you to create lifelong memories and cherished moments.
Types of Travel
While my specialty is Europe and the United Kingdom, the types of travel I work with are diverse. That is because we all have different preferences in how we travel and our level of activity we have while travel. What is important is that you have the opportunity to experience your trip in the way that is most comfortable and meaningful for you. I have experienced river cruises, ocean cruises, motorcoach tours and independent travel, and all of them offer benefits.
That is why I take extra care to research all of these options and to evaluate each of the major providers in each of these categories, and I will take extra care to provide you with the type of travel that is a best fit for you.
