Itinerary
Departing from Edinburgh our Loch Ness tour travels
northwest, passing the imposing Stirling Castle, before making our first stop
at Kilmahog. Here we stop for some light refreshments and the chance to see
some Highland cattle up close. We travel on through Rob Roy Country, then over
the dramatic landscape of Rannoch Moor and the Black Mount to Glencoe, one of
Scotland’s most famous glens, site of the 1692 massacre of Clan MacDonald. Here
we pause for a photo stop, and to soak up the atmosphere in this haunting glen.
Continuing via Loch Linnhe, the tour will stop in the Fort
William area for lunch then continue, passing beneath Britain’s highest
mountain: Ben Nevis. Travelling on, we admire the Caledonian Canal and the
pretty village of Fort Augustus, enjoying spectacular views of Loch Ness, as we
drive along the shoreline to Urquhart Castle.
Loch Ness, 24 miles long and over 700 feet deep, is most
famous for its sightings of the Loch Ness monster, affectionately known as
“Nessie”. The tour spends 2 hours at Loch Ness, where you can choose to take a
5 star 'Loch Ness by Jacobite' cruise and explore the ruins of Urquhart Castle.
Passing through Inverness, Capital of the Highlands, the Loch
Ness tour will start its return journey, crossing the Grampian Mountains and
the woodland scenery of Perthshire, including the Forest of Atholl, with an
evening refreshment stop at the Victorian resort town of Pitlochry, en route
back to Edinburgh, where the Loch Ness tour ends at around 8:30 pm.
