Leaving Glasgow you will head north-west through the rugged Highlands of Scotland until you reach Inveraray, a quaint town built in the mid-18th century on the shores of Loch Fyne. Here you can choose to visit Inveraray Castle* the historic home of the Duke of Argyll, chief of the Clan Campbell, nestled in large beautiful gardens overlooking Loch Fyne. Alternatively, explore the town’s white-washed Georgian houses, wide streets and breathtaking views across the loch.
Your route climbs further north into the Highlands through stunning scenery marked by several dramatic castles and beautiful lochs. You'll pause to admire Kilchurn Castle, one of Scotland’s most photographed castles, nestled on the banks of Loch Awe and beautifully framed by mountains.
Next you will make a stop for lunch in the picturesque harbour town of Oban, ‘Gateway to the Isles’, with free time to explore its horseshoe bay and see MacCaig’s Folly, an iconic 19th century tower reminiscent of the Colosseum in Rome.
After free time exploring, we travel onwards past the 15th century Castle Stalker, which is set on a small island on Loch Laich, before reaching Glencoe, one of Scotland’s most haunting glens and site of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald clan.
The return journey will take you over the dramatic landscape of Rannoch Moor and the Black Mount before you make the final stop at the pretty conservation village of Luss on the ‘Bonnie, Bonnie Banks’ of Loch Lomond. Here you can feel free to walk along the shore or admire the village before returning to Glasgow.
*OPTIONAL EXTRA. PLEASE NOTE: Inveraray Castle open April - October, alternatives offered November-March.

Just on the outside of Paris, visit the Château de Vincennes, a fine example of Medieval architecture.
The Château de Vincennes is a symbol of the modern French state, from which the building show off the power of the monarchy. It once guarded the capital, whilst at the same time protecting the kings against uprisings. Château de Vincennes was at the heart of the French monarchy until 1682, when Louis XIV chose to settle in Versailles. From the 16th up to the 19th century, it was used as a prison where people such as Fouquet, the Marquis de Sade, and Mirabeau were once held.
Under Napoleon I it was transformed into a barracks and arsenal, and the fortress protected Paris during invasions in the 19th century.
It is now a place of national remembrance, restored after suffering extensive damage during the Second World War, and houses the historical services of the three French armed forces.

Montserrat
The Benedictine Abbey at Montserrat is at an altitude of 725 meters.

This mountain top monastery is very popular among Catalans, and Catholic pilgrims come from far and wide to see the Black Madonna, hence its familiar Catalan name, la Moreneta ("The little dark-skinned one"). The Escolania music school in Montserrat’s monastery is one of the oldest of its kind in Europe. The Montserrat boys choir consists of around fifty escolanets aged 10-14.You can listen to their performances in the basilica almost every day except Saturdays and the July and August holidays.
