Scottish tours - Eilean Donan Castle

During the afternoon we will visit the Glenfinnan Viaduct (better known to many as the Harry Potter bridge), Eilean Donan Castle - possibly one of the most iconic Scottish castles set on a loch in majestic scenery where three great sea lochs meet. Also used on the set of 'Highlander'.
Next stop - check in at the hostel in Stromeferry.

Over the sea to Skye taking in the beautiful coastal village of Portree, The Old Man of Storr - a magnificent pinnacle of rock 48m high standing below 182m cliffs, Kilt rock, The Quaraing - mind bending amazing scenery and Faerie Glen - a truly magical gem used in the filming of Stardust. No tours of the Isle of Skye would be complete without a visit to the world famous Fairy Pools

We're off to Loch Ness with your chance to spot the Loch Ness Monster and pick up some Nessie souvenirs. Lunch will be at the beautiful little town of Fort Augustus where, if you're brave enough, you can take a dip in Loch Ness and swim with the monster. Heading South we will be travelling through the Cairngorm mountains on some of Scotland's highest roads. On this leg of the journey, we will have time to get off the bus and enjoy exploring some of the fantastic Scottish Highland wilderness. We will be arriving back home in the early evening.

Accommodation
2 nights have been pre-booked for you in one of the most charming lodges in Scotland. Set in the peaceful village of Stromeferry on the shore of Loch Carron, the Stationmaster's Lodge offers a warm welcome for you - it is exclusively reserved for our guests. The rural location means that you are surrounded by natural beauty. There are woodland walks 5 minutes away with great views of the Loch where there are regular sightings of dolphins and otters.
Food
The accommodation has excellent cooking facilities which all guests are welcome to use. However there are no shops in the village so we will shop for groceries in Fort William on our first day.
