Itinerary

Glorious views of lochs, mountains and the coast await you on the West Highland Experience tour. To join the excursion, you should arrive at designated meeting point, where you will meet your driver/guide and board your mini-bus.
Leaving Glasgow, you will dive straight into the countryside. You’ll head north to Loch Lomond (the largest expanse of fresh water in the country) and stop off at the conservation village of Luss for coffee and sightseeing (refreshments are payable direct).
You then head deep into the Highlands, passing through breathtaking scenery (including views along Loch Awe, the longest in Scotland). The countryside here is rich with history. We pass haunting Kilchurn Castle (historically a stronghold of the Campbell Clan) and the Pass of Brander (where Robert the Bruce had a notable victory).
By lunchtime, you'll have reached Oban and will have time to explore this Victorian seaside town, climb up to McCaig's Tower, take in the views to the isles of Mull and Kerrera and try some of the freshest seafood you'll ever have tasted.
On the way back to Edinburgh, you'll visit the seat of the Campbell Clan at Inveraray, where we'll stop so that you can enjoy ice-cream, homemade sweets, cakes and coffee and drink in the beauty of Loch Fyne.
At the end of the tour you will be dropped back at the starting point.
