Itinerary Overview
Departure: From the Royal Mile to the Silent Call of the Highlands
Departing from Edinburgh, journey through Dunnottar Castle, Breadalbane, and Kilchurn Castle, finally arriving at Inveraray and Loch Lomond to experience the wild and majestic beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
Edinburgh
A luxury Mercedes-Benz private car awaits. Your personal butler begins the Highland epic, heading towards Dunnottar Castle.
Dunnottar Castle
Explore this 13th-century medieval fortress. Bypass the main tourist routes, delve into the Knight's Hall, and ascend to the summit for panoramic views of the River Tay, immersing yourself in tales of history and loyalty.
This is the dream filming location for directors of epic castle dramas.
Breadalbane
Drive into the heart of the Trossachs National Park. Stop at a secret viewpoint to listen to the wind through the glen and the babbling brook, enjoying a picnic lunch by the stream.
There is no signal or signpost here, only purple heather and deep blue glens.
Kilchurn Castle
Explore the ruins on the shores of Loch Awe. Find the perfect spot for a reflection photograph, sit or stroll on the grassy lakeshore, and converse with this secluded landscape.
The castle's silhouette and mountain contours are perfectly mirrored in the water.
Inveraray
Stroll through this fairy-tale town. Visit an ancient whisky bar or enjoy a warm cup of tea on a harbour bench, watching seagulls glide past the masts.
Loch Lomond
Cruise leisurely back along the eastern shore of the loch. Stop at the optimal vantage point to witness the moment the sun kisses the water.
Known as the "Gateway to the Scottish Highlands".
