Description

Witness the vast mountains and wide open spaces of the Scottish Highlands on a tour through some of its most special places. See castles crumbling dramatically against craggy hills, and enjoy peaceful views of glassy lochs nestled between peaks and glens. Learn about the rich history and folklore of the area, and see some of Scotland's most celebrated scenery. Our first stop will be at Doune Castle. Built in the 13th century, Doune Castle was a medieval stronghold, which has been used in countless film sets, from the hit TV series 'Outlander', to 'Game of Thrones', 'Monty Python's Holy Grail', and 'Outlaw King'. Not far from Doune, we will stop over at Kilmahog, where you will have the chance to feed some snacks to the famous Scottish 'Highland Coos'. Approximately an hour away is Loch Tulla viewpoint. A perfect place to take some photos of all the Scottish Highlands have to offer: mountains, lochs and forests. Shortly after is the start of Rannoch Moor - the largest bog expanse in the UK. There are several photo stop opportunities along the way. Next we will make ou way to the most photographed place in Scotland: The Three Sisters of Glencoe. This is an incredibly beautiful mountain viewpoint full of poignancy and historical relevance. We will then stop over at the shore of Locah Linnhe to admire the beautiful Castle Stalker. Built in 1320 by the MacDougal Clan, it was visited by King James the IV, a relative of the Stewart Clan that owned it at that time. Castle Stalker has been the film location of a few films, notably, the 'Highlander' and 'Monty Python's Holy Grail'. A possible lunch stop is Creagan Inn, a family run restaurant serving a variety of Scottish themed meals with a well stocked bar with over 120 single malt whisky's. St Conan's Kirk is our next stop. A wee hidden gem of the Scottish Highlands, this Kirk was voted by Architects as a top ten building in Scotland, and with a crypt with a bone from Robert the Bruce it's a most quirky building, alike to a 'Game of Thrones' scene. Our final stop before returning home is Kilchurn castle, a great stop for photos, it was a formidable fortress in its time, surrounded on three sides by water. 10 mins photo stop
