Activity details
Welcome to a spectacular journey through some of Scotland’s most iconic landscapes, where history, legend, and breathtaking scenery come together for an unforgettable adventure. Buckle up, because we’re about to embark on a Highland tour that will stay with you forever!
Our journey begins in the historic city of Inverness, often referred to as the ‘Gateway to the Highlands.’ With its charming riverside setting, grand castle, and bustling streets, Inverness is the perfect place to start soaking in the spirit of the Highlands. From here, we set off along the Great Glen, heading towards one of Scotland’s most legendary destinations.
Next, we arrive at Urquhart Castle, a magnificent ruin perched on the shores of Loch Ness. Once a mighty fortress, it has stood witness to centuries of battles and intrigue. Take a wander through the ruins, climb the Grant Tower for spectacular views, and listen out—you never know if Nessie might make an appearance!
Speaking of Loch Ness, we’ll continue our journey along its legendary waters, steeped in mystery and folklore. This deep, dark loch has fascinated people for generations, and whether or not you believe in the monster, there’s no denying the beauty of the landscape surrounding it.
Our route then takes us south to Fort William, nestled at the foot of Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain. Known as the ‘Outdoor Capital of the UK,’ this town is a hub for adventurers and nature lovers alike. We’ll pause here to take in the dramatic scenery before heading to one of the most stunning glens in Scotland.
Glen Coe is next, and what a sight it is! With its towering peaks, deep valleys, and a history steeped in legend, Glen Coe is one of the most awe-inspiring places in the Highlands. It’s impossible to drive through this glen without feeling a sense of wonder (and maybe just a wee bit of drama from its infamous past).
From there, we journey towards Glenfinnan, home to the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry Potter films. This stunning railway bridge sweeps across the glen, offering picture-perfect views. It’s also the site of the Glenfinnan Monument, which commemorates Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobite Rising of 1745.
As our tour winds down, take a deep breath and soak in the landscapes, the stories, and the rich history that make the Scottish Highlands such a magical place. Whether it’s ancient castles, legendary lochs, or towering mountains, this journey is a true taste of Scotland at its finest.
