Departing from Edinburgh we make our way to lonely Rannoch Moor and into Glen Coe, Scotland’s most famous glen and the scene of the terrible massacre in 1692. We will make a stop in the midst of this awe- inspiring scenery where you can enjoy the magic of this special place.

From Fort William the striking scenery of the Great Glen unfolds ahead of us – first Loch Lochy, then Loch Oich and finally Loch Ness. We will stop in the attractive village of Fort Augustus, where you can take a stroll along the banks of the loch. Keep a careful watch as we drive the entire length of the loch. We’ll make another stop for some monster spotting from a different vantage point. Shortly we will arrive in Inverness, our home for tonight. The stay in Inverness is unescorted.

This morning we have an excursion to Culloden Moor, where Bonnie Prince Charlie’s Jacobite Army was routed by Government troops under the command of “Butcher” Cumberland. This bloody battle was the last ever fought on British soil.

Later there is free time in Inverness for shopping or sightseeing. As we depart Inverness we make our way through the gentle Spey Valley then on through stunning scenery as we drive over the Drumochter Pass. Keep a close watch for the deer that often come down to the roadside to graze. We’ll stop in the popular Victorian resort of Pitlochry, nestling on the banks of the River Tummel. From Perth make our way homewards to journey’s end in Edinburgh.
