Overview
Cross Scotland by rail, road and loch on an eight-day journey, standing before ancient castles guarding misty lochs and feeling the energy of cultural capitals. Ride the famous West Highland Line to Fort William, where Ben Nevis and Glen Nevis vie for your camera’s attention. Listen to tales of battle and folklore in Glenfinnan, then imagine history playing out on the dramatic landscapes of the Isle of Skye. Cruise the waters of the mythological Loch Ness (keeping an eye out for the water’s famous resident!) and dig into the country’s Jacobite history at Culloden Battlefield. Explore Edinburgh with a local guide where the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Town and neoclassical New Town sit in contrast. You’ll have plenty of free time throughout this captivating journey to explore independently, too, balanced with small-group adventure – and a dram or two of local whisky, if you wish!
