Castles, Lochs, Whisky, and More
Stirling Castle
Your adventure begins at Stirling Castle, one of the largest and most historically significant castles in all of Scotland. With ample free time to explore, you can visit the castle's stunning interiors and grounds or wander the atmospheric medieval streets of the ancient city that surrounds it. Your expert guide will bring to life the legendary storey of William Wallace, the Scottish hero immortalised in the film Braveheart, and reveal his enduring connection to this remarkable place.
Luss Village & Loch Lomond
Next, journey into the stunning Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, arriving at the beautiful conservation village of Luss on the shores of Scotland's most beloved loch. Stroll along the water's edge, explore the charming historic cottages, browse local shops, or settle in for lunch with breathtaking Highland scenery all around you. For those looking to make the most of their time, two optional experiences are available to book on the day. Step aboard a relaxing 90-minute circular cruise across Loch Lomond, taking in sweeping views of mountains, islands and open water, or visit a nearby distillery to discover the craft behind Scotland's most celebrated spirit and enjoy a tasting of whisky or gin.
The Kelpies
On the return journey to Edinburgh, stop to marvel at one of Scotland's most spectacular contemporary landmarks. The Kelpies are the world's largest equine sculptures, standing an impressive 30 metres tall and crafted from gleaming structural steel. Inspired by the mythical water horses of Scottish folklore and celebrating the country's proud industrial heritage, these extraordinary structures are as fascinating as they are photogenic and make for an unmissable end to a truly memorable day.
