From Edinburgh you will travel west, passing the imposing Stirling Castle, high on its volcanic rock, and on to a visit at Doune Castle* (which featured in the cult movie ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’). From there journey into the Highlands, past Loch Lubnaig and up through impressive Glen Ogle, a steep glen that stretches for 7 miles, stopping nearby for lunch and beautiful views of the surrounding scenery.
After lunch venture further into the Highlands, stopping to view one of the most photographed castles in Scotland, Kilchurn Castle, nestled on the banks of beautiful Loch Awe and stunningly framed by the surrounding mountains. You will then journey to Inveraray, a small quaint town built in the mid-18th century on the shore of Loch Fyne.
Here we have time to explore the town and pick up some Highland souvenirs or pay an optional visit to Inveraray Castle*, the historic home of the Duke of Argyll, chief of the Clan Campbell, which is set in large beautiful gardens overlooking Loch Fyne.
You then start your homeward journey, driving over the Arrochar Alps, an attractive range of mountains, with a brief pause near the top of the Rest and Be Thankful Pass. A little later we reach enchanting Loch Lomond, where you can stop at the pretty lochside village of Luss before returning to Edinburgh.
*OPTIONAL EXTRA. PLEASE NOTE: Inveraray Castle open April-Oct, Doune Castle closed on Thursdays and Fridays from 1st October - 31st March. Alternatives will be offered.

This City Pass is the best opportunity to visit places connected with Jewish heritage. You may extend the exploration of World War II's history and places connected with Jewish history with a Museum card. Visit Oscar Schindler’s Factory - the museum tells the story of the factory owner who was the inspiration for Steven Spielberg's hit movie, 'Schindler's
List'. Compare your knowledge of the history of World War II with the reality of everyday life in Nazi-occupied Cracow, and the personal dramas of its citizens. Nearby, at the Ghetto Heroes Square, you can visit the famous 'Eagle Pharmacy' with an exhibition commemorating the Holocaust of Cracow’s Jews. The last place you can visit with our
Museum card is Pomorska Street where, during World War II, the Gestapo's headquarters and prison were located. These three points on the map of Cracow are the three complementary stories about the war and the time that came after the war and the key to the full picture of the tragic history.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: to get a student discount students must have a student ID card during the tour and show it to the DiscoverCracow
representative when asked.
