Overview

Tour the Western highlands of Scotland and marvel at the stunning lochs and the mighty castles of the region. Spend a fantastic day out in the heart of the scenic Western Highlands, admire the architectural splendour of the castles, which are steeped in history.

Skirt around Loch Long and down to the Bonnie, Bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. This is Scotland's largest loch and it takes its name from the mountain Ben Lomond on the eastern shore. Your first stop is at the conservation village of Luss, with its quaint houses and stunning views across the loch. Continue along the banks of Loch Awe through Campbell country to the picturesque town of Inveraray on the shores of Loch Fyne.

Drive past Loch Awe and former home of the Campbells of Breadalbane, the next stop of the tour is at Doune Castle. Built for Robert Stewart, the Duke of Albany, over 600 years ago, the castle is still in great condition. Explore its labyrinth of rooms, interconnecting staircases and passageways.
