Itinerary

Drive through Scotland’s wild country side and explore the shimmering lochs and glens throughout the Trossach national park before marching towards the famous Stirling Castle. Walk through the great hall and the Queens Palace which is one of Scotland’s finest examples of Renaissance architecture and also the ancient home to a young Mary Queen of Scots.

We will leave your port and drive towards the stunning Trossach National Park where we will stop at the historical village called Luss. Gaze over the shimmering Loch Lomond, which is Scotland’s largest fresh water loch, and enjoy the views of our most southerly Munroe, Ben Lomond.

From here we will carry on our adventure through the Trossach national Park and stop at the impressive viewpoint at Inveruglas. Enjoy the stunning views of Loch Lomond and the surrounding mountains that make this area such a romantic destination in Scotland.

We will then make the short trip up to the Falls of Falloch which is locally called Rob Roys bathtub. Rob Roy is a legendary Scottish Outlaw who later became a folk hero. Legendary tales of Rob Roy using the falls as a hideout are very common in this area.

We will then travel towards Kilmahog so that we can get a few photos of some friendly highland cows before making way to Stirling Castle.

Stirling Castle is one of Scotland’s most historic sites which was home to the Stewart kings and queens throughout the centuries. Highlights include the Great Hall, Chapel Royal, Castle Exhibition, Regimental Museum, Great Kitchens, Tapestry Studio and the Queens Palace which your guide will be happy to take you through.
