Itinerary

Day 1: Edinburgh

Royal mile, old Castle, home of the brave, Edinburgh is going to turn it on from start to end. With days of adventure up ahead, go out in search of haggis, a whisky bar and join the jolly locals before meeting up with the crew tonight, in anticipation of the good times that are yet to come. Stay: Ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge (or similar)

Day 2: Edinburgh

Today is yours to roam free - but if you want to get the low down on the history of this city why not join our local guide for an optional tour of Edinburgh Castle (which is resting on an extinct volcano!!) to kickstart your love affair with this city. Or maybe you'll do a spot of tartan shopping on Princes Street or indulge in some whisky tasting. Stay: Ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge (or similar) Included Meals: Breakfast

Day 3: Edinburgh to Scottish Highlands

Edinburgh It's time to blaze a trail out of Edinburgh & head for the Scottish Highlands. St. Andrews On the way to the main affair of the day we'll stop by St. Andrews, the birthplace of golf, would you believe? As well as Scotland’s oldest university town. Scottish Highlands Already blown away by the beauty of the rugged mountain scenery en route, we'll arrive in the Scottish Highlands amped up for mystical tales. Stay: Loch Ness Lodge Hotel Drumnadrochit (or similar) Included Meals: Breakfast, Dinner

Day 4: Scottish Highlands to Glasgow via Loch Ness

Scottish Highlands We might be coming down from a high (geographically speaking) this morning, but as we seek out the stunning Loch Ness, the mood will only be rising. Loch Ness We'll stop to see lovely Loch Ness and hop on board for a cruise of the most voluminous lake in the UK - containing more water than all the lakes of England and Wales combined! It's also rumoured to contain something else, something far more legendary which you're sure to have heard of... Glasgow We'll arrive into Glasgow tonight, grab a bite to eat and then hit the hay ready for some more exploration in the am! Stay: Ibis Budget Glasgow (or similar) Included Meals: Breakfast

Day 5: Glasgow

Glasgow Wakey wakey everyone. We're up bright and early this morning. Next stop, Stirling! Stirling We make a stop in Stirling, known for its famous Castle nestled right on a hill, and the town where William Wallace took on the English and yelled "Freeeedom!" Glasgow Get involved with everything great about Glasgow. Live music on every corner, a gothic cathedral & plenty of quirky characters make this city unique. Accommodation: Ibis Budget Glasgow (or similar) Included Meals: Breakfast

Day 6: Glasgow

Our trip ends this morning after breakfast. Say goodbye to your travel squad, and get started on planning the next big travel adventure. Included Meals: Breakfast
