Tour Highlights
Edinburgh
After exploring the Scottish Highlands, you’ll enjoy spending some time in Edinburgh. Stroll along cobbled alleyways, perhaps see centuries of history at Edinburgh Castle and tuck into some quintessential Scottish fare alongside a chorus of bagpipes.
Loch Ness
You can’t visit Scotland without perusing the tranquil waters of Loch Ness, famous for the elusive ‘monster’ that is said to swim in its depths. Hear the myth and mystery of Loch Ness and its monster during a cruise and explore nearby Urquhart Castle.
Neptune's Staircase
Make your way to Neptune’s Staircase, an impressive set of eight locks operated by a team of at least three lock keepers. Situated on the Caledonian Canal, the 22-ton lock gates were originally hand-powered, but are now operated by hydraulics.
Cliffs of Moher
Celebrated in folklore and song, the location in the most iconic scene in the Harry Potter movie franchise and the most visited natural attraction in Ireland, the dramatic Cliffs of Moher play a prominent role in the story of the Emerald Isle. There is no better way to get a sense of their imposing presence than to stand atop them and marvel at the staggering, sheer drop to the wild Atlantic Ocean far below.
