Loch Lomond & Stirling Castle

We start our tour from Glasgow heading north to Loch Lomond, the largest freshwater loch in the UK. Loch Lomond must be the worlds most famous loch and has been much written about, both in song and verse. Our first stop is in Tarbet where you can enjoy an optional cruise on the loch. This picturesque village is situated on the West shore of Loch Lomond, an area which is renowned for it’s beauty and tranquility that offers picture postcard views at every corner.

Our drive continues through spectacular scenery to Crianlarich and on to Rob Roy Country where we will make a brief stop at Balquhidder Church and visit the grave of Rob Roy. We then travel to Kilmahog where we will stop for lunch. After Lunch our tour continues through the Trossachs by Loch Vennacher where we then climb the dramatic Dukes Pass passing through the pretty village of Aberfoyle and on to Stirling.

Stirling Castle known as the “key to Scotland”. It’s location even rivals Edinburgh Castle for sheer magnificence as it sits high on a Volcanic crag which makes it visible for miles around. There is enough time for a leisurely visit to the Castle where you can hear the key moments of the history of Scotland and of the battles of Scotland’s past including Stirling Bridge where William Wallace defeated the English in 1297, and Bannockburn where Robert the Bruce did the same in 1314.
