Itinerary
Hotel Pick-up
Your own personal guide will pick you up right outside your hotel, usually arriving 15 minutes before your tour begins, ensuring a warm and seamless start to your experience.
Breathtaking Views at the Rest and Be Thankful
Simply spectacular. There are no words that can describe the beauty of the Rest and Be Thankful, and it's one of the most dramatic valleys you'll ever see. Winding through the valley, you'll also see the old road which was used during the Jacobite times as a military route.
The Fishing Village of Inveraray
Wander through the picturesque streets of Inveraray, visit the Old Sweet Shop, or stop for a coffee. Overlooking the banks of Loch Fyne, the county town was originally created and planned by the Duke of Argyll in 1745. On the edge of the town, you'll also find Inveraray Castle, set within extensive grounds with beautiful views over towards the loch. As you pass by, catch a glimpse of the historic Inveraray Jail nearby — a quick window into the town's past.
Loch Awe & the Ruins of Kilchurn Castle
One of Scotland's most photographed castles, you'll no doubt have seen it before. Kilchurn Castle is a spectacular medieval ruin that sits on an 'island' on Loch Awe. Originally, this wasn't an island, but actually part of the mainland before the water level dropped. Its most famous claim to fame is during the Jacobite Rebellion, when it was used as a stronghold for the British.
Lunch
Your guide will provide you with a variety of lunch options, ensuring there's something to suit every taste and dietary preference.
