Scotland Grand Tour–12 nights

This, the ultimate tour of Scotland, extends our Classic Scotland route into the far north and offers a couple of days in Pitlochry with time to explore the beautiful lochs and glens of the Loch Tummel and Loch Tay.
Leaving historic Edinburgh with its famous castle and ‘Royal Mile’ travel north via St Andrews with its university and golf courses to Pitlochry with its famous salmon leap and forests. While in the area Blair Castle, seat of the Dukes of Atholl dating from the 13th century. Travel north to Inverness, possibly visit and enjoy a tasting at a malt whisky distillery in the Spey Valley then learn about the history of the clans with a visit to the Culloden battlefield memorial. Don’t forget to pack a camera in case you get lucky ‘monster hunting’ for Nessie! The tranquillity and wilderness of the far north of Scotland comes next as you drive up to the most northerly coast. Travel south via Cape Wrath through Wester Ross, the beautiful coast of Argyll, staying at Fort William or Oban, to eventually cross the Arrochar Alps to tranquil Loch Lomond and the Trossach hills.
