Taste of Edinburgh

Upon arrival, you will be met and transferred to your hotel. The remainder of the day is at leisure to explore Edinburgh. We highly recommend an optional private whisky tasting to get you in the spirit of Scotland and acquaint you with the “water of life”.

Today explore Edinburgh on your own or take one of the recommended private or small group optional tours. Discover the two towns – the Georgian “New Town” and the historical “Old Town.” Walk the maze of “wynds” and the Royal Mile, ending with spectacular views of the city from Edinburgh Castle.

Today, we recommend joining an optional West Highland Lochs & Castles tour, to spend a fantastic day out in the heart of the scenic Western Highlands taking in the superb ruins of Kilchurn Castle, stunningly situated at the head of Loch Awe, and the historic 18th century town of Inveraray, home to the Duke of Argyll. En-route to the Western Highlands, stop briefly below the impressive Stirling Castle before continuing towards the medieval stronghold of Doune Castle, set of Monty Python’s “Holy Grail” and the “Outlander” series. Before returning to Edinburgh, continue over the spectacular “Rest and Be Thankful” pass to Loch Lomond, stopping at the conservation village of Luss, set on its “bonnie, bonnie banks”.

You will be picked up from your hotel and transferred to the airport or train station for your next destination.
