Itinerary
DAY 01: London – Gretna Green (Whiskey Tasting)- Glasgow
After a warm reception from your tour manager at your dedicated pick-up point settle in your comfortable coach as we set off on our journey. Crossing the Scottish border, you will stop at Gretna Green, where eloping couples would exchange their vows over the Blacksmith’s anvil and be bound to each other forever. Visit the Famous Blacksmiths Shop, in Gretna Green, which has over 260 years of history and heritage. It is now an excellent, award-winning wedding destination, with many attractions for visitors including shopping and restaurants. Resist the urge to tie the knot yourself and continue to the bold city of Glasgow. Here in the city tour visit Glasgow Cathedral, the oldest cathedral in mainland Scotland and the oldest building in Glasgow, George square, the famous University of Glasgow & many more. Later, we enjoy a lovely Indian dinner before checking in to the hotel.

DAY 2 - Glasgow - Falkirk Wheel - The Kelpies - Edinburgh – Glasgow
After breakfast, we begin our journey toward Scotland’s historic capital, Edinburgh, with exciting stops along the way.Our first experience of the day is the Falkirk Wheel, the world’s only rotating boat lift and a true masterpiece of modern engineering. This remarkable structure connects the Forth & Clyde Canal with the Union Canal through a graceful half-turn rotation that takes just five minutes.
Next, we visit Helix Park, home of The Kelpies-the world’s largest equine sculptures. Standing 100 feet tall and weighing over 300 tonnes each, these shimmering steel giants celebrate the powerful working horses that drove Scotland’s industrial heritage, from ploughing fields to pulling barges along the nation’s waterways. We then make our way to the capital city of Edinburgh. Upon arrival, enjoy an orientation tour of this historic city, taking in highlights such as Princes Street, the Palace of Holyrood house, and many more notable landmarks. Afterwards, stroll along the historic Royal Mile to admire St Giles’ Cathedral, renowned for its striking crown-shaped spire. Next, we will visit the world-famous Edinburgh Castle. Dramatically perched atop an ancient volcanic plug, the castle has dominated the city’s skyline for centuries. Inside, explore its grand state apartments and view the ancient Scottish Crown Jewels.

Day 03: Glasgow - Nevis Range - Commando Memorial - Glenfinnan Viaduct - Neptune Staircase - Glasgow
Today after breakfast, channel your inner Highlander as we embark on a journey north to the banks of Loch Lomond. We make our way along the scenic route towards Fort William, to visit the Nevis Range. On arrival, enjoy a cable car ride to the summit rising to 1,345 meters above sea level for breathtaking views of Ben Nevis the highest mountain in the British Isles. An ancient giant of the land, Ben Nevis was once a massive active volcano which exploded and collapsed inwards on itself millions of years ago. In Scotland, you can’t get any higher than this. Next, we have a photo stop at the Category A listed structure The Commando Memorial which stands some 17ft or 5.2m high and comprises a group of three bronze commandos dressed in typical World War Two uniforms and equipment including cap comforters, ammunition pouches and weapons. This monument was built in memory of the officers and men of the commandos who died in the Second World War 1939-1945. Later we make our way to the Glenfinnan Visitor center to have a photo stop of the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct and the Glenfinnan memorial. The Glenfinnan Viaduct is a railway viaduct on the West Highland Line in Glenfinnan, Inverness-shire, Scotland, built from 1897 to 1901. Located at the top of Loch Shiel in the West Highlands of Scotland, the viaduct overlooks the Glenfinnan Monument and the waters of Loch Shiel. Glenfinnan Viaduct has been used as a location in several films and television series, the famous one being four of the Harry Potter films. Glenfinnan Monument was erected in 1815, in tribute to the Jacobite clansmen who fought and died in the cause of Prince Charles Edward Stuart. The 18m-high monument was built here, with the lone, kilted highlander at the top providing a poignant reminder of the clansmen who gave their lives to the Jacobite cause.
Our final stop for today will be Neptune’s staircase, which is a staircase lock comprising eight locks on the Caledonian Canal. The system was originally hand-powered but has been converted to hydraulic operation. End the day with an amazing dinner at one of our selected restaurants before making your way back to the hotel.
Meals: Breakfast (Y) Dinner (Y)
Day 04: Glasgow - Lake District - London
Today morning after breakfast, we check out from the hotel and settle in for a scenic drive north to the Lake District. The Lake District is England’s largest National Park and is famous for its breath-taking scenery, abundant wildlife, and cultural heritage. We will be visiting Lake Windermere England’s largest lake, in the heart of the Lake District. Embrace the area’s heritage from a cruise on Lake Windermere in a spectacular voyage giving the traveller magnificent views of mountain scenery, secluded bays and the many wooded islands followed by an Experience and chug between Haverthwaite and Lakeside in an old-world steam train. Travel back in time when you climb aboard the steam train. A distant memory of bygone years for some and a new experience for others.

Best Time to Visit Scotland
Scotland is stunning all year round, but the best time to visit Scotland depends on what you’d like to experience.
Spring (March to May): The landscapes come alive with blooming flowers, especially in the Highlands. The weather is mild and crowds are fewer, making it ideal for sightseeing.
Summer (June to August): This is peak season for a trip to Scotland. Expect long daylight hours, warmer temperatures, and lively festivals like the Edinburgh Fringe and Highland Games. Perfect for exploring cities and countryside alike.
Autumn (September to November): The fall foliage paints the landscapes in fiery hues of orange and red. This is a great time to enjoy scenic train rides, peaceful walks, and cozy pub evenings.
Winter (December to February): While colder and darker, winter offers fewer tourists, lower prices, and the magical charm of snowy Highlands. It’s also an excellent time to enjoy Hogmanay (Scottish New Year) festivities and local culture.
No matter when you go, our Scotland tour packages are designed to give you the best of what this enchanting land has to offer.
