Itinerary

A 7-day tour of Scotland and England, including cities like Edinburgh, Stirling, Pitlochry, Inverness, Glasgow, and a grand finale in London, is an incredible way to experience the best of the UK’s history, culture, and landscapes. Here’s a thoughtfully crafted itinerary that balances city exploration, scenic landscapes, and historical landmarks.(Partially Guided)

Tour program

Day 1

Arrival Edinburgh

Upon your arrival in Edinburgh, one of our vehicles will be waiting you at the airport to receive and transfer you comfortably and quickly to the hotel.

Around noon you will be able to enjoy a sightseeing tour around the city with a local guide.

Edinburgh, in addition to being the capital of Scotland since 1437, is one of the most visited cities in the United Kingdom and holds the title of Scotland's second-largest city (the first is Glasgow). Its beauty and historical legacy make it an excellent destination to visit throughout the year.

This beautiful Scottish city, full of history and curiosities, will allow us to take a trip to the Middle Ages, thanks to its interesting streets with architectural value, the many buildings dating from this historical period, and impressive monuments from the 16th century.

Tip: Docked at the Ocean Terminal in Leith, we can find the majestic Royal Yacht Britannia, which served from 1954 to 1997.

Start point

Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom

Day 2

Edinburgh: Celebrating Scotch whisky heritage

After a full breakfast, you will visit a famous whiskey distillery, where you'll learn all about the fascinating process behind Scotland’s most famous drink (admission included). This world-renowned spirit, made from barley, is not only a favorite within Scotland but is also the country’s largest export, enjoyed across the globe.

The rest of the day will be yours to explore the city at your own pace. The Royal Mile is Edinburgh’s most famous street. It connects Edinburgh Castle (to the west) with the Palace of Holyroodhouse (to the east). Peculiarly, its length, which measures 1.81 kilometers, is approximately one Scots mile long, which is longer than an English mile but hasn’t been used since the eighteenth century.

Tip: Make sure to visit a traditional Scottish pub to enjoy a dram of whiskey as the locals do!

Day 3

From Edinburgh to Inverness

After breakfast, you will depart from Edinburgh, making your first stop to photograph The Kelpies, enormous sculptures of horses' heads from Scottish mythology. These figures symbolize the strength and beauty of horses, as well as their connection to water and land. You will have a brief moment to admire and photograph them.

Next, you will head to Stirling, famous for its impressive historic center dominated by Stirling Castle, one of the most important castles in Scotland. This castle has witnessed numerous historical events, including legendary battles and the coronation of several kings. Admission to the castle is included.

You will continue your journey north, stopping in Pitlochry, a picturesque town in the heart of the Scottish region known for whisky production. You will have free time to enjoy lunch and stroll through its charming streets.

Afterward, you will visit Culloden, the site of a pivotal battle in Scottish history against British forces, which ended in a decisive English victory. The battle had profound consequences for Scotland, leading to laws and policies aimed at suppressing its culture and traditions.

In the late afternoon, you will arrive in Inverness, known as the "Capital of the Highlands," where its castle stands out. We suggest taking a stroll along the banks of the River Ness and crossing the iconic suspension bridge.

Note: Depending on the time of year and daylight hours, the stop at Culloden may take place on Monday.

Tip: Don’t forget to bring a raincoat, as Scotland’s weather can be unpredictable.

Day 4

Inverness Highlights

After a delicious breakfast, you will have a day full of excitement as you travel along the hauntingly beautiful landscapes, forests, lochs, and plains of northern Scotland.

You will visit Eilean Donan castle, probably the most photographed fortress in the entire country.

Next, you will travel to Fort Augustus, where you will visit the sluice gate system. When you finish, there will be time to have lunch and a stroll.

In the afternoon, you will explore Loch Ness and go on a boat tour of the lake’s dark and mysterious waters. After that, you will visit the medieval castle of Urquhart (entrance included). Accommodation in Inverness.

Tip: Be sure to take a moment for a selfie with Nessie during your visit to Loch Ness — a fun way to capture the magic of the Highlands!

Day 5

From Inverness To Glasgow

After breakfast, you’ll head towards Glasgow. You’ll make a brief stop at Spean Bridge to visit a monument commemorating the Second World War. Later, you’ll stop in Fort William, a tourist center at the foot of Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK.

Passing by Kilchurn Castle, you’ll admire its beautiful ruins by a dark lake. Continuing, you’ll reach Inveraray, a picturesque historic village by Loch Fyne, with its large castle and quiet streets. There will be free time for lunch.

In the afternoon, you’ll travel along the shores of Loch Lomond before arriving in Glasgow in the evening, where you’ll have time to explore the center of this lively city.

Tip: Did you know the raincoat was invented in Scotland by Charles Macintosh, born in Glasgow?

Day 6

After breakfast, you will depart from Glasgow to Britain's capital city.

Once in the city of London, the rest of the day will be free to enjoy on your own.
