Itinerary

Edinburgh

Day 1

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge (or similar)

Royal mile, old Castle, home of the brave, Edinburgh is going to turn it on from start to end. And to get everyone grinning from the get-go, we've scored tickets to a comedy show at world-famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival!

Edinburgh

Day 2

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge (or similar)

Today is yours to roam free - but if you want to get the low down on the history of this city why not join our local guide for an optional tour of Edinburgh Castle (which is resting on an extinct volcano!). Or maybe you'll do a spot of tartan shopping on Princes Street. Up for a mini adventure? Then join us this afternoon for a hike to Arthur’s Seat - one of the city’s most famous spots.

Edinburgh to Scottish Highlands

Day 3

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Loch Ness Lodge Hotel Drumnadrochit (or similar)

It's time to blaze a trail out of Edinburgh & head for the Scottish Highlands. On the way to the main affair of the day we'll stop by St. Andrews, the birthplace of golf, would you believe? As well as Scotland’s oldest university town. Already blown away by the beauty of the rugged mountain scenery en route, we'll arrive in the Scottish Highlands amped up for mystical tales and a chance to compete in some optional traditional Highland games.

Scottish Highlands to Glasgow via Loch Ness and Dundreggan

Day 4

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Ibis Budget Glasgow (or similar)

We might be coming down from a high (geographically speaking) this morning, but as we seek out the stunning Loch Ness, the mood will only be rising. We'll stop to see lovely Loch Ness and hop on board for a cruise of the most voluminous lake in the UK - containing more water than all the lakes of England and Wales combined! It's also rumoured to contain something else, something far more legendary which you're sure to have heard of... Small pitstop! We'll check out the lush, hilly rewilding centre here to learn about how Scotland's native animal species are reintroduced in the wild. We'll arrive into Glasgow, drop our bags and dive straight into all that makes this city glow. Think live music on every corner, a gothic cathedral & a chance to savour a home-cooked meal too.

Glasgow

Day 5

Duration: 1

Accommodation: Ibis Budget Glasgow (or similar)

Wakey wakey everyone. We're up bright and early today, and this city's all yours to explore. Plus, you've got the option to check out the nearby Stirling castle (and the town where William Wallace took on the English and yelled "Freeedom!"). And even learn & eat all about Scotland's national Dish - Haggis.

Glasgow

Day 6

Duration: 1

High on life? Same, bestie. Same. But it's sadly time to say goodbye to our spirited love affair with this wonderful place. Grab your final breakfast of the trip, and bid your farewells. Don't be too sad tho, there are plenty more places just waiting to be explored!
