What to expect

Departing 7:30 am and heading north from Edinburgh, you will pass the imposing ramparts of Stirling Castle and drive through the Trossachs National Park, Rob Roy country.

You will cross the wilds of Rannoch Moor before stopping at dramatic Glencoe, the scene of the infamous massacre in 1692. The tour takes you through Fort William passing Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain, before entering the Great Glen. Arriving in Fort Augustus on the banks of Loch Ness, you will take a boat cruise on this loch of legends (duration 50 - 60 minutes).

The return journey takes you past shimmering Loch Laggan before climbing over the wild and lonely Drumochter Pass in the Cairngorms National Park. Heading south, you enter Perthshire, a land of forests, rivers and mountains, where you stop in a wee village. You continue south over the Firth of Forth where you view the spectacular Forth Bridges before arriving back in Edinburgh around 08:00 pm.
