A perfect introduction to Scotland on this small-group tour - history, legend, and breathtaking landscapes all in one.

This journey takes you from striking modern art to ancient battlegrounds. We’ll start with The Kelpies, the world’s largest horse sculptures and a tribute to Scotland’s industrial past. Then, it’s off to Loch Lomond, the largest loch in Britain, whose beauty has inspired poets and painters for centuries.

From there, we’ll venture into The Loch Lomond Trossachs National Park, a land of towering peaks and shimmering waters, before stepping back in time at Stirling Castle where kings met their fate, rebellions took root, and Scotland’s story was shaped.

A little bit of everything, all in one unforgettable day.
