Morning

Journey to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, Highlands

Leaving Glasgow, we head north, crossing an ancient natural fault line that runs across Scotland. As we enter the majestic Highlands, the landscape transforms quickly and dramatically—from the flat, fertile plains of the Lowlands to shimmering lochs, rugged mountains, and lush glens.

Mid Morning

Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park to Glencoe

We continue through the serene glens of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, with a brief stop in one the quaint towns in the area. As we journey north, we'll encounter the remote, sweeping landscapes of Black Mount and Rannoch Moor before arriving at Glencoe, one of Scotland's most iconic locations. Famous for its towering, rugged slopes, this valley has starred in numerous films and holds a significant place in Scottish history. Enjoy time for photos or a short walk to take in the stunning scenery.

Afternoon

Lunch in Fort William and journey to Dornie

Our next stop is Fort William, a charming Highland town situated at the base of Ben Nevis, the UK's tallest mountain. Here, you'll have free time for lunch and some exploration—choose to sample local dishes, wander the town, or visit a museum to learn about the area's heritage. Continuing through the Great Glen, we pass the iconic Five Sisters of Kintail mountains and the picturesque Eilean Donan Castle, stopping along the way for photos and short breaks.

Early Evening

Arriving on the Isle of Skye and free evening in Broadford

Crossing the bridge to Skye, we follow the dramatic coastline to the village of Broadford, nestled along a picturesque bay with views of the rugged Cuillin mountains. Here, you'll stay for two nights, with the freedom to choose how to spend your evening. Will you sample local flavors at a nearby restaurant, or perhaps enjoy a traditional music session? The choice is yours.

Accommodation

Your overnight accommodation will be in Broadford. If your tour departs between 1st November 2025 to 1st April 2026, you'll stay in Portree.
