Itinerary

1. Luss
A visit to Luss offers delightful combination of natural beauty, history and charm. On the western shores of Loch Lomond, the picturesque village is a popular destination for both locals and tourists. Its quaint cottages, flower-filled gardens, and breathtaking views of the loch create an enchanting atmosphere that is perfect a leisurely stop for a coffee or late breakfast.
Duration: 30 mins
2. Rest and be Thankful
A popular, scenic spot known for its stunning scenery and historic significance. A great place to stop and take in the views.
Duration: 10 mins
3. Inveraray
Passengers can take the opportunity to explore Inveraray Castle, home to the Duke of Argyll and his family (tickets available on the day). Enjoy the fresh Highland air with a leisurely walk through the parkland, woodland, and gardens, alive with vibrant azaleas and rhododendrons that thrive in Argyll during the summer. (Please note, the castle is open April to October, Thursday to Monday, and closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.)
Duration: 75 mins
4. Kilchurn Castle
We pause to snap photos of the impressive Kilchurn Castle, standing tall and proud at the head of Loch Awe.
Duration: 15 mins
5. Oban
Once a quaint fishing village, Oban has grown into the ‘Gateway to the Isles’ and earned its reputation as Scotland’s ‘seafood capital.’ The port now serves as the main ferry hub for the Isle of Mull and the Inner and Outer Hebrides. Visitors flock from far and wide to enjoy the town’s fresh daily catches at local restaurants, where you can indulge in seafood delights, classic Scottish fare, or a variety of international dishes.
Duration: 90 mins
6. Glencoe
Glencoe’s brooding mountains seem to close in as you arrive in a glen of breathtaking natural beauty. It’s a place where history comes alive, evoking the tragic events of 1692, when the clan Campbell-led government forces massacred the MacDonald clan under the cover of night. Here, we will pause to soak in the stunning views and take the opportunity to capture unforgettable photographs.
Duration: 15 mins
7. Callander
The return journey passes through Callander, a welcoming town often described as the “Gateway to the Highlands.” Set at the meeting point of Highland and Lowland landscapes, Callander offers a gentler contrast to the mountains of Glencoe.
