Tour Description:

The Hermitage, Dunkeld & the Highlands

If you want to experience the majesty Highlands of Scotland, but only have a limited amount of time to spare, then try our 'Touch of the Highlands' Tour. This is a beautiful, relaxed tour, perfect for those who want to take it easy, stroll through the Scottish countryside and get a feel for the grandeur of our high country.

As you head towards the Highlands you'll be able to stop to photograph the amazing Forth Railway Bridge. You'll then pass beautiful Stirling Castle and head to the picturesque market town of Crieff.

Over lunch you can choose to explore Crieff or visit the Glenturret Distillery (home of the Famous Grouse brand)* Here we are pround to offer you a unique opportunity to sample whisky from the cask at a tutored tasting in a real whisky warehouse - this is a first in Scotland and a Highland Experience exclusive!

Further north, we enter the Sma' Glen and all of a sudden you'll know that you have arrived in the Highlands as the countryside takes on a much more imposing character.

The Hermitage is a beautiful National Trust site on the banks of the River Braan. This is the perfect spot for a leafy walk through stunning countryside. See Ossian's Cave and Ossian's Hall, a Victorian folly built to honour the immortal bard of the Gaels.

On the way home, we stop for coffee at Dunkeld on the banks of the River Tay. Take a look at its beautiful cathedral and be transported back in time to when Dunkeld was a pocket-sized city and the centre of Scottish Christianity.
