Day Tour (dep. Edinburgh)
Adventure Calls, First Timers
English
Explore the Scottish West Highlands, on this fantastic tour which gives you the opportunity to see some of Scotland’s most stunning lochs as you cross the country to have lunch at the seaside town of Oban. By the end of the day, you will have experienced some of Scotland’s finest history, scenery and seafood.
We leave Edinburgh and head through Scotland’s bustling central belt to show you Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow and meet the rest of our group. Then it’s on to Loch Lomond (the largest expanse of fresh water in the country) where we stop off at the conservation village of Luss for coffee and sightseeing.
We then head deep into the Highlands, passing through breathtaking scenery (including views along Loch Awe, the longest loch in Scotland). The countryside here is rich with history. We pass haunting Kilchurn Castle (historically a stronghold of the Campbell Clan) and the Pass of Brander (where Robert the Bruce had a notable victory).
By lunchtime, you’ll have reached Oban and will have time to explore this Victorian seaside town, climb up to McCaig’s Tower, take in the views to the isles of Mull and Kerrera and try some of the freshest seafood you’ve ever tasted.
On the way back to Edinburgh, you’ll visit the seat of the Campbell Clan at Inveraray, where we’ll stop so that you can enjoy ice-cream, homemade sweets, cakes and coffee and drink in the beauty of Loch Fyne.
