Discover the best of Scotland on a full-day tour from Greenock. Visit the Kelpies, Stirling Castle, Loch Lomond, and the Trossachs National Park. Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local eatery and explore the charming village of Luss.

Start your tour with a drive through Glasgow city center towards the Kelpies. Located on the Forth and Clyde canal near Falkirk, the Kelpies are the world's largest equine sculptures. Standing 30 meters tall and weighing over 300 tons each, they are a tribute to the heavy horses that powered Scotland's industry and agriculture in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Next, visit Stirling Castle, a symbol of Scotland's turbulent past and royal legacy. Uncover tales of kings, queens, and legendary battles that have shaped the nation's history. With origins dating back to the early medieval period, the first recorded use of the site as a royal residence and fortress was back in the 12th century. Significant construction and development of the castle took place particularly under the reigns of James IV, James V, and James VI, who transformed it into a major royal palace.

After the wonders of Stirling Castle, enjoy a delicious lunch at a nearby eatery. Following lunch, head in the direction of Loch Lomond and the Scottish Highlands. Drive through Scotland’s First National Park, The Trossachs. This breathtaking region of rolling hills and serene lochs inspired some of the works of the famous novelist Sir Walter Scott.

The region's dramatic landscapes and rich history provided the perfect backdrop for the writer's story on the adventures of the titular Scottish folk hero, Rob Roy. Your final stop will be the Highland village of Luss on Loch Lomond. Located on the western side of the loch, there has been a settlement in this location for centuries.

Walk the charming streets, pick up a few souvenirs, and enjoy the views from the ‘Bonnie Banks’. Then, make your way back to Greenock cruise terminal in plenty of time before your ship departs.
