Departing Glasgow, it’s a short drive to the conservation village of Luss on the banks of Loch Lomond. The village is known for the small, picturesque cottages that line the cobbled streets. Views over Loch Lomond provide a great photo opportunity too.
Luss’ church attracts many visitors, with many hoping to spot the Viking hogback grave within the grounds. The next stop is Balloch, at the southern tip of Loch Lomond. Passengers can purchase tickets to join a scenic 1-hour cruise of the loch. Those who prefer to stay on dry land, have time to explore Balloch Country Park
Heading deeper into the Trossachs National Park is Duke’s Pass, a winding road through spectacular scenery. Take time to capture the beauty of the area. There is time to purchase some lunch in the National Park too.
The final stop is in the historic city of Stirling. Overlooking the city is Stirling Castle, home to many Scottish royals and one of the most visited castles in the country. Choose to purchase entry tickets to the castle or enjoy the exterior views and explore the other historic treats the city has to offer. Later, return to Glasgow.
