We travel north passing Stirling Castle, and catch a glimpse of Doune Castle, which appears in Monty Python & the Holy Grail, Outlander and Game of Thrones. Soak up the atmospheric scenery in Glen Coe and learn about the legend of ‘Nessie’ at Loch Ness.

Continuing our journey south to the Isle of Harris, you’ll be blown away at white sandy beaches and a backdrop of rugged mountains. We have time to visit the famous Harris Distillery and indulge in some of the best local produce before we return to Stornoway for the night.
