Iona: A Thin Space Unleashing the Spirit

Rides on two ferries and a cross-island bus bring the visitor to the small and historic Isle of Iona. Once the center of Gaelic monasticism thanks to the 5th century trip Columba made from Ireland to Scotland to spread Christianity, today the island yields lush fields and remarkable rainbows.
