WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park
As you pass through Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park and get some magnificent views looking out over Loch Lomond as you pass through the Highland Boundary Fault Line. This is the magical moment you officially enter the grand Scottish Highlands and gain a sense of what the rugged mountainous landscape is really like.
2. West Highland Way
You’ll then get out for a beautiful short hike along Scotland premier walking route, the West Highland Way as we make our way towards a lovely small lochan (small lake). It’s believed King Robert the Bruce threw his sword in this lochan to lighten his load, as he was trying to escape the onslaught from a surprise ambush by the MacDougal’s of Lorne. This battle is known as the Battle of Dail Righ and the battle ground is not far from where you’ll be walking.
3. Buachaille Etive Mor
You’ll continue towards Glencoe where on the south of the entrance to the Glen, you’ll see the grandeur of Buachaille Etive Mor, the pyramid shaped mountain stands proudly guarding the entrance to Glencoe and is known by its Gaelic translation as the Great Herdsman.
4. Glencoe
Now is the time to experience one of the most gorgeous locations to be found anywhere in Scotland, the rugged, dramatic land of Glencoe. This alluring landscape captures the imagination of almost anyone who travels through the Glen, and you’ve likely saw it before, as the seductive beauty of Glencoe and the surrounding area has featured in many movies and T.V shows, such as, Outlander, Harry Potter, Braveheart, Rob Roy, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Highlander and most recently in Netflix’s Outlaw King featuring Chris Pine.
5. Luss
As we head south to the lowlands, we visit the pretty conservation village of Luss on the western shore of Loch Lomond. Luss has been home to many since the medieval times, although most of the current village dates from the 18th and 19th centuries, having been developed to house local workers from nearby slate quarries. The village became the setting for the successful TV soap High Road which undoubtedly contributed to its popularity during the 1980s and 1990s.

James was very friendly and helpful and gave a lot of lovely information and fun stories. We also had someone on the tour who had an injury and couldn’t talk easily however James still managed to give us all a very good tour while being supportive to that member as well.

The guided tour was conducted by James who quickly made all members of the group comfortable through his humor, story-telling and interest in people. The views, sites, and hikes were amazing. Olga and I were in awe and spellbound by the beauty of The Highlands. We add a 6th star!

Glencoe and Cal's narration and story telling was great. In Scotland leading 2 Yoga Retreats with a week in-between, and this was perfect for a real day's vacation.

We chose this tour, not only because we would see a lot of sites over the course of a 10 hour day but also because of the small group (only 8 people). Our tour guide, James, was fantastic. James was good at describing historical facts as well as explaining the significance of the particular event. The scenery we saw was breathtaking. We would recommend this tour
