They say you can still
hear their cries! We’ll make a stop at the new
eco-friendly Visitor Centre, in the heart of the Glen,
where you can enjoy an optional picnic lunch or take a
gentle stroll in these awe-inspiring surroundings
Next we travel to Fort William, which sits in the shadow
of Ben Nevis. Then enjoy a scenic drive through the
Great Glen to Fort Augustus. We will tour the entire
length of Loch Ness, stopping to visit Urquhart Castle,
for some monster spotting. Could that shadow be the
monster?
We'll make a short panoramic tour of Inverness, the
Capital of the Highlands, before we start our journey
southwards. We’ll make a 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...
URQUHART CASTLE –
Admission included
This magnificent castle dates from the 14th century and was one in a
chain of garrisons that controlled the Great Glen. Nowadays it’s a
popular place with “Nessie” hunters; in fact there have been more
sightings from the castle than anywhere else! Our tour of the castle
includes the fascinating audio-visual presentation that tells its
history, as well as plenty of free time to explore the castle for
ourselves. Keep a close watch and a camera ready – just in case!
