Itinerary

Day 1 Callander & Glencoe

We leave Edinburgh and travel through the gentle Lowlands past Stirling Castle. As we cross the ancient geological fault line, the flat plains give way to the majestic Highlands, with rugged peaks and forest-filled glens that define the Trossachs National Park.

We pause for a break by a shimmering loch or in a charming Highland village, taking in the fresh air and beautiful surroundings, before the next leg of our journey. Then, we continue through Queen Elizabeth Forest Park and the bristling terrain of the Trossachs before reaching the remote expanse of Rannoch Moor.

Next, it’s Glencoe, one of our most iconic natural landmarks. Famous for its dramatic, rugged slopes, this stunning area has appeared in numerous films and is rich in history and folklore. You’ll have time for photo stops here before lunch in the local area. Then, it’s onwards for a unique ferry crossing on Corran Ferry that is pulled across the loch by a steel cable. After a short ferry ride across Loch Linnhe, you meander through the impressive mountains of Morvern to Lochaline, where we take another ferry to the Hebridean island of Mull.

We’ll then arrive in Tobermory, the island’s vibrant capital, for a three-night stay. With its brightly coloured houses, Tobermory, meaning ‘Well of Mary,’ is often described as one of the most picturesque harbour towns in Scotland.

Your overnight accommodation will be in Tobermory.

Day 2Iona Abbey & Optional Staffa Boat Trip

Today, we’re embarking on an exciting island-hopping adventure, visiting two stunning islands: Iona and Staffa, while exploring the scenic beauty of Mull along the way.

We travel along Mull’s rugged coastline, passing tranquil coves, rocky outcrops, and sandy beaches. Mull is a haven for nature lovers, offering opportunities to spot seals, otters, and eagles, so keep your eyes peeled. As we wind through lush pastures, dense woodlands, and peat bogs, we reach Fionnport, where we board a ferry to Iona, the birthplace of Celtic Christianity.

Discover the serene beauty of Iona, a sacred island where history and nature meet. You’ve got free time here to walk in the footsteps of St Columba at the ancient Iona Abbey, or admire the magnificent, ancient Celtic crosses and headstones. Later, take an optional boat trip to Staffa, where you may spot puffins and other wildlife. This is home to the awe-inspiring Fingal’s Cave that is one of the most remarkable geological sites in the world. The island, made of striking hexagonal columns, was formed millions of years ago by volcanic eruptions, though local legend claims it was built by a giant.

Passengers will be able to land on the Isle of Staffa after 10th June.

After a day spent exploring these remarkable islands, we hop back on a ferry to Mull and journey through scenic glens, past craggy hills, and shimmering lochs to Tobermory. You’ll have free time this evening—will you enjoy a leisurely dinner and stroll along the picturesque harbor, or perhaps seek out a traditional Scottish music session in one of the local pubs? The choice is yours

Your overnight accommodation will be in Tobermory. (B)

Day 3Calgary Bay & free afternoon in Tobermory

Mull is full of hidden gems, and today your driver-guide will take you to some of their favourite spots.

You might visit charming villages, a lovely waterfall, or Calgary Art in Nature, a gallery that beautifully blends nature and creativity. Then, we head to the wild shores of Calgary Bay, where you can relax on soft, white sand, surrounded by turquoise waters and dramatic hills—truly a place to unwind.

We return to Tobermory for lunch and give you free time to soak up the atmosphere of this lovely town. You’ve got the rest of the day to browse the local shops, visit the Tobermory whisky distillery, or take a walk to the Isle of Mull cheese shop.

Your overnight accommodation will be in Tobermory. (B)

Day 4Loch Fyne & ‘Rest and be Thankful’

Say farewell to Tobermory as we head south to Craignure for the ferry to the mainland.

Enjoy a short ferry ride across the Firth of Lorn and cast a last glance at the breathtaking landscapes of the rugged Isle of Mull, before you arrive in Oban, the bustling port town in Argyll.

Continuing west, we travel through the beautiful landscapes of Argyll and Bute, stopping at scenic spots along the way. We stop for a short break in the charming town of Inveraray before we head into Loch Lomond & the Trossachs National Park. We continue through the wild landscapes of the national park, stopping in the conservation village of Luss, located on the “Bonnie, Bonnie Banks” of Loch Lomond. Wander through its quaint streets and enjoy the stunning views of the loch and iconic Ben Lomond.With time, the rugged mountain peaks and forest-filled glens of the majestic Highlands change into the flat fertile plains of the Lowlands as we return to Edinburgh.
