The coach eases out of Glasgow before dawn and the Highlands begin to unfold: lochs that catch the sun like shallow mirrors, mountains that push the sky aside, and a line of roadside villages that seem to hold their breath. Guests disembark in Luss to walk the loch shore, feel the cool spray of Loch Lomond on a morning breeze, then continue west where Glencoe’s stony ridges rise abruptly and demand attention.
