• Callander - The first stop is in the Callander area in the Highlands for some light refreshments, with a chance to see a Highland cow, depending on the season.
• Glencoe - The journey continues through Rob Roy Country, home to Clans MacGregor and Campbell, then over the striking landscapes of Rannoch Moor and the Black Mount to Glencoe, one of Scotland’s most renowned glens, known for the 1692 massacre of the Clan MacDonald. Here, there is a photo stop to absorb the atmosphere of this haunting glen.

Guests can relax at the hotel or partake in the “Donald Fraser – Illicit Whisky Experience,” a 20 to 30-minute on-site experience featuring a film about the history of illicit whisky distilling, paired with a dram of the Donald Fraser blend (optional extra £12).

Alternatively, guests can explore the area, such as the Old Coffin Road Walk starting at the hotel car park. There is also an option for a one-hour round trip cruise along the loch, offering stunning views of Urquhart Castle (optional extra).

Loch Ness, 24 miles long and over 700 feet deep, is famed for sightings of the Loch Ness monster, affectionately called “Nessie.” Visitors can enjoy a delightful cruise on the loch.
