Ali Motion

Scottish Tourist Guide

Tour leaders

---

With a lifetime of working in the great outdoors and an enviable knowledge of the best places to visit in Scotland, Ali Motion understands her homeland like few others do. 

She’s a Blue Badge-accredited guide with the Scottish Tourist Guides Association and the holder of a Hill and Moorland Leader qualification, so she’s as at home leading you along remote Highland moors and beneath Shetland’s salt-sprayed cliffs as she is through Edinburgh’s ancient doorways. 

Before guiding, Ali’s worked as Education Manager for the Royal Highland Education Trust, and ran the Discovery Centre at the Royal Highland Show, Scotland’s biggest annual agricultural show, welcoming thousands of visitors eager to learn about rural life.  

Ali brings boundless enthusiasm, down-to-earth charm and a knack for knowing just where to go to uncover Scotland’s natural beauty, rich history and warm hospitality. Whether it’s spotting seabirds in Shetland or sipping whisky on Skye, you’re in very good hands.  

Meet Ali Motion on one of our exclusive tours: Orkney islands tour: wildlife, Vikings and ancient wonders , or Shetland Holidays: 6 days exploring Scotland’s northernmost isles or the longer 8-day Scotland travel tour: Highlands, Skye & Outer Hebrides.
