Itinerary
Our first stop for refreshments and a comfort break is Callander, where you will have a chance to grab a snack and stretch your legs. If you're lucky enough, you may have the chance to meet the Highland Cows (season dependant).
We make a brief stop in this scenic location to take in the views across Loch Tulla and Glen Orchy
The site of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald Clan, Glencoe is one of Scotland’s most famous glens. Here you will hop off for a photo opportunity with the dramatic northern ridges known as the Three Sisters
Nearing the half way point on our tour we stop off in the Fort William area for lunch.
Another opportunity for photos as we stop on the outskirts of Spean Bridge at the Commando memorial. Unrivalled views down towards Fort William and the UK's highest mountain Ben Nevis. Depending on timings, this stop may be subject to change
A chance to grab some lunch and take part in an optional Loch Ness Boat cruise. For those not on the cruise, we have over an hour here which is plenty time to grab a coffee and have a wander around.

Traveler reviews
Great tour to the highlands!
What a great tour! We stopped at cute towns and historic sites along the way up to Loch Ness all of which were unique. Leon provided fun facts along the way about Scotland history and about different places we passed. We had enough time at each stop to enjoy each spot. The highlands are beautiful - a must see! Highly recommend this tour!
Beautiful sights! Great guide!
My group and I had an amazing time! Leon our guide/driver had many interesting stories to tell and took us to all the best sights! I highly recommend taking the boat tour on the Loch!
Great day seeing Nessi
Leon was great, very informative and through in some light hearted jokes along the way. He was a very safe driver as well with wonderful suggestions of where to eat, what to see, and where we could pee!
