## Itinerary

### Day 1: Glasgow - Glencoe - Eilean Donan Castle - Broadford

Departing Glasgow you travel north, crossing the ancient natural fault line that runs across Scotland. We travel into the majestic Highlands where the scenery changes quickly and dramatically - the flat fertile plains of the Lowlands give way to shimmering lochs, rugged mountain tops and forest-filled glens. Next, we venture north through the splendid scenery of Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park up to the wild desolation of Rannoch Moor . You continue through the spectacular mountain pass of Glencoe , scene of the great massacre of the Clan Macdonald in 1692. And after lunch we pass Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis , and head into the Great Glen. Travelling west you head past the Five Sisters of Kintail . You then stop to visit the famous Eilean Donan Castle , one of Scotland's most photographed castles. Crossing over the bridge to Skye , you follow the dramatic coastline, towards Broadford . And after all this breath-taking beauty, you're dropped off at your accommodation in the early evening with enough time to go out and explore the village. * Please note that Eilean Donan Castle will be closed on the following dates due to weddings: 2nd, 5th, 6th, 9th, 15th, 16th & 24th November 2024. We will be unable to visit the inside of the castle. Please also note that the castle closes over winter between 22nd December 2024 and 1st February 2025. We apologise for the inconvenience.

### Day 2: Broadford - Isle of Skye - Broadford

Today is a flexible day on Skye . Your driver-guide will ensure you have the best day out no matter what the weather. North of Portree is the Trotternish ridge with spectacular cliffs and rock formations, such as the Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock, and the stunning mountain pass of the Quiraing. Or your guide may take you back in time and teach you about the legends and clan culture surrounding the 13th-century home of the Clan MacLeod, Dunvegan Castle. You return to Broadford in the evening.

### Day 3: Broadford - Loch Ness - Glasgow

You travel south through the Cuillin Hills and back over to the mainland for stunning views over Loch Duich and the Five Sisters of Kintail . You visit Loch Ness for lunch... but will you spot 'Nessie'? Heading south through the Grampian mountains along Loch Laggan , famous now as "Monarch of the Glen Country" before passing Dalwhinnie and onwards past Blair Castle , stopping for refreshments before heading back to Glasgow . ★ ★ ★ Check below for 3-Day The Isle of Skye Tour from Edinburgh ★ ★ ★ 3-Day The Isle of Skye Tour from Edinburgh: Glencoe, Eilean Donan Castle, Portree and Loch Ness
