    Day 1

    Leaving Glasgow our two day Eilean Donan tour will head
    north-east via Stirling, catching a glimpse of its famous and majestic Castle.
    We visit the Wallace Monument, the towering stone testimonial to the Scottish
    legend William Wallace, and afterwards pass Doune Castle, location for the film
    ‘Monty Python & the Holy Grail’. After lunch, time permitting, we make a brief visit to Rob Roy’s Grave
    and then to the pretty village of Killin for photos.

    The Eilean Donan tour will continue its journey north via
    Tyndrum across the atmospheric Rannoch Moor, and then onwards to Glencoe, site
    of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald Clan, for a brief walk and photos. We
    then continue to the stunning Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry
    Potter films, for a photo opportunity (Apr-Oct). Our final stop on day one of
    the Eilean Donan tour is the Highland town of Fort William, where we check into
    our accommodation.

    Day 2

    After breakfast your 2 day Eilean Donan tour from Glasgow
    heads north into The Great Glen, a geographical fault line characterised by a
    chain of impressive lochs, including Loch Ness. We enjoy a photo stop at Glen
    Garry, before arriving at Eilean Donan Castle (interior closed in winter) for
    an optional visit, or to explore the castle and its beautiful setting.

    Our journey continues with a stop for lunch and views of
    Loch Ness in the pretty lochside village of Fort Augustus. After lunch we start
    our return journey, enjoying a photo stop to admire Ben Nevis, Britain’s
    highest mountain at 1,344 metres. Then
    we travel via The Hermitage stopping for a gentle forest walk in idyllic
    Scottish woodland, before crossing the Forth Bridge, back to Edinburgh where
    the two day Eilean Donan tour terminates.

    If continuing to Glasgow, your guide will take you to
    Edinburgh Waverley railway station for the 50 minute journey by train, courtesy
    of Timberbush.

    Overnight stay in Fort William:
