Il programma nel dettaglio
A splendid introduction to Scotland. This tour fuses the remarkable beauty of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park with the savage history of Stirling Castle. On this trip, there is plenty of time to examine the unique architecture and ponder over the majestic natural and man-made wonders.
We depart Edinburgh and head west through Scotland's central belt towards the ‘Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond’ where we take time at Balmaha to admire views of Ben Lomond. Here, you will have the opportunity to go on a woodland walk that will afford you great views of the loch. Standing on its bank you will understand why Loch Lomond has been immortalized in a world-famous song.
The afternoon is spent exploring Stirling. Take the chance to discover the impressive Stirling Castle (on your own, entrance fee not included), one of Scotland’s most important structures both historically and architecturally. Many royals have been crowned at Stirling Castle, including Mary Queen of Scots, and it was central to William Wallace’s fight in the Wars of Independence. Alternatively, explore Stirling, geographically one of the most significant towns in Scottish history.
On our way back you will have the chance to visit and marvel at the stunning Kelpies, the world's largest equine sculpture dedicated to the horse-powered heritage of Central Scotland, designed by Andy Scott. They also celebrate the mythological transforming beasts living in our lochs, rivers, and streams, who possess the strength and endurance of 100 horses.
We return to Edinburgh early evening at approximately 5:30 pm.
