1 Day Loch Ness Coach Tour dep Edinburgh
Why not let someone else do the driving, while you enjoy Scotland's spectacular scenery for a day with these luxury coach tours that depart from Edinburgh in the morning and return at the end of the day.
The Loch Ness Monster - fact or fiction? Find out on this splendid tour through the glorious Scottish Highlands.
The journey northwards takes us through Rob Roy MacGregor country to desolate Rannoch Moor. We’ll travel through haunting Glen Coe, the
'Glen of Weeping'. In 1692 40 of the resident MacDonald clan were massacred in cold blood by the Campbells for not forswearing the
Jacobite cause. It is said that you can still hear their cries! We’ll make a stop in this awe-inspiring place so that you can marvel at the natural
beauty of the glen for yourself.
Next we travel to Fort William, which sits in the shadow of Ben Nevis—Britain's tallest mountain. A real highlight is our drive through the
Great Glen which is also the route taken by the Caledonian Canal. We will criss-cross the canal several times as we make our way to Inverness.
The Great Glen contains three lochs which will offer us spectacular vistas. Firstly Loch Lochy then Loch Oich and lastly Loch Ness. The
pretty little village of Fort Augustus is our gateway to Scotland’s largest and most famous loch. We will tour the entire length of Loch Ness,
stopping at Urquhart Castle for a photograph. Here you can visit the Castle and enjoy a cruise on the loch— could that shadow be the
monster?
Shortly we will arrive in Inverness. We will make a further stop so that you can discover the Capital of the Highlands for yourself. Later we
will start our journey southwards through the Spey Valley then on to the dramatic scenery of Glen Garry. We’ll make a brief stop in the delightful
Victorian resort of Pitlochry before we head for Perth then Edinburgh or Glasgow.
A wonderful day out and maybe, just maybe......
Admission to Urquhart Castle and cruise is not included—payable locally.
