What to expect

Your Loch Ness tour, commencing from Glasgow, starts with a scenic drive through Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, where you’ll soak up views of Scotland’s first national park and the legendary landscapes that inspired tales of Rob Roy.

Next, venture into the dramatic Highlands, with a stop at the hauntingly beautiful Glen Coe, known for its towering peaks and tragic history. As you travel further north, enjoy stunning views of the Commando Monument and the Nevis Range, home to Britain’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis.

Arriving in the charming village of Fort Augustus, you’ll have time to explore the banks of Loch Ness. Keep an eye out for Nessie on an optional boat cruise, or simply unwind along the Caledonian Canal. The journey continues through the rugged beauty of Cairngorms National Park, before heading back south, returning to Glasgow in the evening.
