Leaving Edinburgh, we make our way to the Kelpies, the world's largest equine statues designed by Andy Scott which represent the shapeshifting creatures of Scotland's folklore.
30 minWe take to the back roads and drive through Scotland’s scenic beauty and further into the Highlands. Glens, forests and rivers aplenty, before stopping at one of Scotland’s most famous whisky distilleries - Glenturret. Please note children must be 12+ in order to join the distillery tour.
1h 45m · Admission not includedOur return journey visits the quaint village of Dunkeld, in Macbeth country, where a stunning cathedral sits comfortably by the banks of the River Tay.
1h 15mAfter reviving ourselves with a wee dram of the ‘water of life’, we head to the Hermitage in the heart of Perthshire and take a short woodland walk.
45 minEnjoy a day of whisky and waterfalls on a small-group day trip from Edinburgh, led by a friendly local guide! After a stop in Falkirk to see the Kelpies, travel through the Scottish Highlands, passing alongside Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Stop at the Famous Grouse whisky distillery for lunch and a tour (both payable at own expense) and, after sampling a wee dram of whisky, continue to the Hermitage, a natural beauty spot that’s home to the impressive Black Linn Falls.
