Begin by visiting the impressive Kelpies statues before heading north past Wallace Monument and Stirling Castle. Gaze at the scenic Rannoch Moor and Glen Coe, and take a walk through the beautiful fishing town of Oban in the late afternoon. (Overnight: Oban)

Day 2: Oban to Isle of Skye
Venture through some of Scotland’s most awe-inspiring landscapes on the way to Skye. Catch a glimpse of the mighty Glenfinnan Viaduct before passing the world-famous Eilean Donan Castle and spending the night on the Isle of Skye. (Overnight: Portree)

Explore the epic and magical scenery of the Isle of Skye and venture through stunning mountains, rugged coastlines, and local folklore before returning to the mainland. Head along the dramatic Great Glen to Inverness, the Capital of the Highlands. (Overnight: Inverness)

Day 4: Inverness
Keep your camera ready as we hunt for the legendary monster ‘Nessie’ while driving along the banks of Loch Ness, where one pic can get you insta-fame! Visit the cute Highland town of Beauly, and stop at the historical Culloden Battlefield where the Highland Clans’ last stand took place – made famous through the hit series Outlander.

Resume your adventure with a visit to the chamber cairns and the amazing standing stones of Clava Cairns, where you can attempt your own journey through the stones!
