Departing Glasgow, travel through the stunning West Highlands, where lochs, castles, and glens shape Scotland’s dramatic landscapes. Stop in Tarbet to admire Loch Lomond, Scotland’s largest loch by surface area, before heading north to the breathtaking Glencoe, steeped in natural beauty and the history of the 1692 Massacre.

Continuing through Ballachulish, arrive in Oban, the lively ‘Gateway to the Isles.’ Enjoy lunch by the waterfront, explore the charming town, and watch ferries depart for the Hebrides. Heading inland, visit St Conan’s Kirk on Loch Awe, an architectural masterpiece with links to Robert the Bruce.

Stop at the Kilchurn Castle Viewpoint, where the ruins of this 15th-century Campbell stronghold stand against a stunning lochside backdrop. After a break in Tyndrum, we journey back to Glasgow, with an optional final stop at Inveruglas for one last scenic view over Loch Lomond.
