Stop first for photos by Dunkfeld Cathedral, an impressive Gothic structure that was begun in 1260 and finished about 240 years later. Then, visit Loch Laggan, a picturesque lake, and Glencoe, an area that is rich in history and natural beauty.
Stop in the small town of Fort Augustus, located on the Great Glen Way on the southern most tip of Loch Ness. Visit an award-winning restaurant and savor an exquisite 3-course lunch with a decidedly Scottish accent: Scotch broth, Lochaber smoked salmon, cured Great Glen venison and Isle of Mull cheddar. And don’t forget to top it all off with a dram of Dalwhinnie whisky.
After lunch, choose between exploring the village of Fort Augustus or continue to Loch Ness, probably the most mysterious stretch of water in the world. If it’s the latter, keep your eyes peeled for Nessie, the loch's mythical monster.
When the time comes, join up with your guide and begin the journey back to Edinburgh. As you travel, soak up views of Scotland’s most engrossing nature, including a view of Ben Nevis, the tallest mountain in Great Britain. You'll also pass by Stirling Castle, an imposing structure situated on a rocky crag and one of the most important fortresses in Scotland.
Your tour then concludes at the original start point in central Edinburgh.
