Full description

Take in wild landscapes, pretty villages, and historic monuments on this tour from Edinburgh. Experience the many sides of the Highlands on this inclusive excursion.

Depart from the old town of Edinburgh in the early morning and travel by bus or minivan into the Highlands. Admire the dramatic scenery and enjoy views of Stirling Castle, a famous royal abode that was once the home to the mighty Stuart monarchs.

Pull up in the picturesque town of Callander and stretch your legs while admiring shaggy Highland cattle grazing in surrounding pastures. Continue north across rugged terrain to Glencoe valley, with its craggy mountains and sweeping vistas perfect for photographing. Arrive in Fort Augustus and spend some time at your leisure. Cruise the calm waters of Loch Ness (optional), tuck into a spot of lunch or stroll along the Caledonian Canal. Next, it's back to the bus for the World War II Commando Memorial.

Continue your journey as you look out the window for Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest mountain.

Your next stop is a visit of Pitlochry and its salmon ladder. Sip on a dram of warming whisky in a local pub (own expense), before returning to Edinburgh.

on arrival we were warmly welcomed by Michael, a fantastic start! The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that he deserves a special thanks. There was an accident and the road was closed, so our trip was not going as expected but Michael rang his boss and made all the effort and worked extra hours just to make sure we get to visit everywhere , Michael has such a warm personality and is a highly motivated guide (highly recommendable!). The scenery was beautiful, The atmosphere was so special ..All respect to Michael who does a great job ; he got a soothing voice and spoke for hours , it was so educational and Michael always checks if everyone is comfortable. a true sample of an excellent tour guide! Many thanks again and I recommend Michael to everyone!

Amazing trip, and would highly recommend anyone visiting Edinburgh does this! Our fabulous tour guide was Brian - his knowledge and enthusiasm made our tour even more enjoyable. He asked my 11yr son join him at the front as “co-pilot”….this made the 12hrs exciting and pass quickly for him….especially when leading the songs(!) from the front…. Don’t hesitate….book!!
