描述
Discover the lochs and castles of Scotland’s Western Highlands on a scenic day tour from Edinburgh. See Doune Castle, Callander, and Loch Lomond as you learn about Scotland’s folklore and history.
Set off from Edinburgh and travel west, past Stirling Castle, to your first short stop at the conservation village of Luss on the "Bonnie, Bonnie Banks" of Loch Lomond. Wander around, taking in its quaint houses and stunning views across the loch, and try to spot the iconic Ben Lomond.
Continue west through the steep-sided mountains known as the Arrochar Alps to the great viewpoint at "Rest and Be Thankful." From there, head to the picturesque town of Inveraray on the shores of Loch Fyne. Here, admire the 18th-century castle (open to visitors from April until October), take time to explore the town, or visit the Old Jail.
Next, travel north and enjoy a photo stop to admire Kilchurn Castle, a magnificent ruin situated on the edge of Loch Awe and the former home of the Campbells of Breadalbane. Some say it’s cursed, so it’s better if you admire it from a distance.
Then, pass through Callander and cross the Highland Boundary Fault Line, leaving behind the Highland crags. Arrive at Doune Castle and come face-to-face with over 600 years of history. Take time to visit this iconic stronghold and learn about the filming of Monty Python and The Holy Grail, The Outlaw King, or the Outlander series.
After a day full of views of mysterious lochs, charming castles, and rugged mountains, relax on a smooth transfer back to Edinburgh and arrive in the capital in the early evening.
