Opciones de la excursión
Itinerario
El puente Forth Road es un reconocido sitio declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO que une los asentamientos históricos de North y South Queensferry. El puente más antiguo data de 1890 y es un símbolo icónico de la audaz ingeniería escocesa del siglo XIX.
Pitlochry es una encantadora ciudad escocesa de Perthshire, lo que la convierte en una parada ideal para tomar un refrigerio y disfrutar del baño.
La destilería Dalwhinnie, famosa por su whisky de malta, es la destilería más alta de Escocia, a más de 1000 pies sobre el nivel del mar.
El Monumento al Comando es una gran estatua de bronce de tres figuras que conmemora el servicio y el sacrificio brindados por miles de tropas aliadas durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, con Ben Nevis al fondo.
Al llegar a Fort Augustus poco después del mediodía, tendrá tiempo para explorar la ciudad, incluida la famosa "escalera de Neptuno", que es una serie de esclusas que bajan o suben los barcos de una altitud a otra. Fort Augustus tiene muchos cafés pequeños y pintorescos para almorzar. El lago Ness es conocido mundialmente por su increíble belleza y, por supuesto, por el legendario monstruo del lago Ness. Hay un crucero opcional por el lago con salida a la 1:00 p. m. (El precio del crucero comienza desde £19,00 por persona, con entradas familiares disponibles. No incluido en el precio del tour).
Ben Nevis, que se eleva por encima de todas las demás montañas del Reino Unido, es la más alta y eclipsa a Fort William. Lo llevaremos a un mirador donde podrá contemplar el paisaje y tomar esas fotografías cautivadoras.
Si el tiempo lo permite, haremos una parada en el Centro de Visitantes de Glencoe, que contiene una gran cantidad de información sobre la geología, la historia y la vida silvestre de este famoso valle. Lo más destacado del centro es una reconstrucción de una casa tradicional Turf and Creel del siglo XVIII del valle de Glencoe, a la que puedes ingresar para experimentar cómo vivían los habitantes del valle hace 300 años.
Las Tres Hermanas de Glencoe, el lugar más fotografiado de Escocia, son tres picos montañosos formados hace 420 millones de años por un supervolcán, y el valle excavado por glaciares a lo largo de millones de años. Detrás hay una cañada escondida que fue utilizada por el clan MacDonald para esconder el ganado robado a sus vecinos.
Rannoch Moor a menudo se conoce como el lugar más desolado del Reino Unido, debido a que es la extensión de pantano más grande de las islas británicas. También se utilizó como escenario para el rodaje de escenas de dos películas de Harry Potter.
Un mirador espectacular con vistas a "todo lo escocés", montañas escarpadas, lagos y bosques de pinos.
Interrumpiendo el viaje de regreso a casa, haremos una breve parada para alimentar personalmente a los Highland Hairy 'Coos' en Callander Woolen Mill.
El castillo de Doune es un importante castillo histórico escocés, que también fue lugar de rodaje de películas populares de cine y televisión, como Outlander, Juego de Tronos y Monty Python y el Santo Grial.
Uno de los castillos más importantes y más grandes de la historia de Escocia, el Castillo de Stirling se encuentra en la cima de una colina de roca volcánica sobre la ciudad de Stirling.
Los Kelpies son las estatuas equinas más grandes del mundo y fueron encargadas no sólo como un homenaje a los caballos utilizados en las minas de carbón escocesas, sino también como una representación de los míticos Kelpies del folclore de hadas escocés.

Because it was a private tour, our guide, Simon, would be receptive to reasonable requests for adjustments to the itinerary. In our case, we really had none that I can recall since Simon's itinerary suited us well. Simon shared with us his plans for accomplishing the events of the Viator description. First we agreed with him that spending three hours on a highway each way to get to Loch Ness (in the trip description) was a poor use of time. Rather, we headed toward Loch Lomond, via Glasgow where Simon lived so that we could also get a driving tour of it which included seeing some fascinating murals. Next we were able to take some scenic roads to Loch Lomond and onward toward the other locations in the trip description with all of us having lunch at an eatery at one of the estates/castles. This was particularly enjoyable since the weather that day was superb making eating outside superb as well. It was a 12-hour day as indicated, but totally worth it.
Glad you had a great day with Simon, Martin! Glad you had great weather as well. Thank you so much for the lovely review
Darryl was a great guide and made this tour personal and highly memorable. We were traveling with our 3 kids aged 4-11 and he was very flexible with the schedule to address their needs for more frequent stops. He was incredibly helpful cheering up our daughter who was feeling a little carsick on the way back. We lucked out on the weather - with clear skies the Highlands are absolutely stunning. Based on this trip, we very much want to return to Scotland some day and spend more of the time in the Highlands.
Thank you so much, Jason! Glad you had a great day with Darryl and that you'd like to return! Hope to see you again soon. Take care!
Are you traveling to Scotland with your family? Do you have small children in tow? Despite the snacks, toilet breaks, whining and complaining, do YOU still want an amazing experience!?! Gerry at E2G is your man! He is absolutely lovely tour guide. He is funny, patient, knowledgeable. We were able to completely alter our itinerary to our taste; picking, dropping, and switching destinations. Gerry also showed us a couple of off-the-tour sites, based on our individual interests. Gerry gave us a call the day before our tour to discuss any MUST-SEE’s and tailored our itinerary. He’s an absolute professional! If you want a private tour for just your private group, pickup/drop off at your location, a clean car smooth ride, and an absolutely fantastic tour guide, it’s Gerry at E2G
Many thanks Darlene for your fantastic review of our Loch Ness tour, Gerry will be so grateful of your high praise.
David gave us a phenomenal experience up into the Highlands and through the beauty of Glencoe. He was very informative, friendly and professional. We enjoyed our day thoroughly and would highly recommend him!
Our Edinburgh Loch Ness tour is extremely popular, its a lot do with our guides like Dave but its also is due to wonderful reviews like yours. Thanks Shannon
Colin was incredibly kind and entertaining. He was inviting and really made the experience enjoyable for all of us. Everyone on our trip thoroughly appreciated his knowledge and stories. The trip does entail spending a lot of time in the car, and this was easier for some than others. This particular trip opened up the opportunity to see so much of Scotland that we otherwise would not have seen. We all had a great time!
Thank you so much Allison for the lovely review, Colin will be pleased. Appreciate it is a long day and we're glad you all had a great time nonetheless!
We had a wonderful day with our tour guide, Ayvin. He was knowledgeable, flexible with our schedule and family and took us to see all of the amazing sights of the highlands. We got to see the furry coos on two different stops and the Monty python castle which were highlights for us.
Thank you Michele! Glad you had a great day with Ayvin. Thanks for the lovely review!
Scotland is an amazing destination and Ross was just simply great throughout our tour. Brilliant experience.
Thanks Navneet for your compliments of our Loch Ness tour and your guide, Ross, he will be grateful you mentioning him by name.
Darryl from E2G Tours was a great driver and guide. He knew the area well and adapted the stops to our preferences.
Thank you Carson! Appreciate the review and glad you had a great day with Darryl
Shak was an incredible driver and tour guide for our full-day trip from Old Town Edinburgh to Loch Ness and back, with beautiful stops along the way. He made the entire experience enjoyable for everyone in our group—my senior mom, my husband, and me. Each of us had a favorite memory: my mom loved every stop along the route, my husband especially enjoyed the breathtaking scenery and the whisky toast in Glencoe Valley, and I was thrilled to hand-feed a Highland cow named Hamish! Shak went above and beyond to make the day special, surprising us with a whisky toast, bringing carrots so we could feed the Highland cows, and sharing delicious snacks throughout the trip. His knowledge, sense of humor, and genuine care for his guests made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for a fun, scenic, and unforgettable Highlands tour, I highly recommend booking with Shak. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Scotland!
What wonderful feedback for our popular Edinburgh Loch Ness tour, many thanks for the 5 star rating and kind words for Shak. Safe travels Michelle
Daryl was a very nice guide, friendly and accommodating. He did a great American accent and kept us laughing. . We saw everything we wanted including two highland cows experiences, waterfall, Loch Ness, glen coe, lots of great photos. We felt relaxed all day and enjoyed the beautiful sights and great service. Highly recommend this tour.
Very kind of you Jean, thank you! Glad you got to experience so much in the day. Darryl will be happy with the feedback!
