Day One

We depart from your home and travel north to Scotland and along the shore of Loch Lomond to Crianlarich and your hotel, time to relax before dinner.

Day Two

Today we join the Scotrail train at Crianlarich station for the journey to Oban, the lines takes you through the Pass of Brander and alongside Loch Etive. Oban is the major port for the Western Isles ferries and the harbour is a hive of activity. The town has a level seafront backed by a wooded escarpment, with the skyline dominated by McCaigs Folly, resembling the Coliseum in Rome. We have time to explore and have lunch before catching the return train.

Day Three

After breakfast we head along Glen Dochart to Killin, with the Falls of Dochart rushing through the village, from here we drive along Loch Tay to Aberfeldy where we have a lunch break. This afternoon we head south along the Sma’ Glen to Crieff, here we visit the Glenturret Distillery, makers of the Famous Grouse for a tour and wee dram. Our return journey takes us along Loch Earn and Glen Ogle to Crianlarich.

Day Four

Our excursion today begins with a ride across the wild and desolate Rannoch Moor to Fort William, passing through some of the most inhospitable country in Scotland with spectacular scenery and beautiful lochs. We have time to explore this popular town before we are on our way south alongside Loch Linnhe to Ballachulish and Loch Leven. The Glencoe Visitor Centre is our afternoon break and here you can learn all about the feuding clans and in the infamous massacre, we return to our hotel over Rannoch Moor.

Day Five

This morning we bid farewell to Bonnie Scotland and begin our journey home with comfort stops enroute after a memorable holiday.
