Details

Your bespoke Signature tour of Scotland will take you from bustling Edinburgh down the West Coast. Make your route your own, stopping at remote villages, iconic distilleries, and sites of outstanding natural beauty, including the lush Isle of Skye.

Day 1

Edinburgh to Dunkeld

Delve into Scotland’s fascinating history in the footsteps of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce with a visit to its ancient capital, Stirling, or strike northwards reliving the magic of Outlander on your journey into the Highlands.

Day 2

Cairngorms National Park

Encounter Britain’s largest national park to reach the epicentre of malt whisky country and the Moray Firth. Pause for reflection at Culloden’s infamous battlefield or detour to picturesque Cromarty and the Black Isle en route for delightful Dornoch.

Day 3

Crossing Flow Country

An epic drive across one of Europe’s last great wildernesses and UNESCO World Heritage Site to the most remote and uninhabited corner of Britain’s mainland. Traverse this ice-scoured landscape in comfort at the wheel of your Land Rover.

Day 4

Exploring unspoilt Assynt

Raw and elemental, Assynt with its plethora of peaks, lochs and deserted beaches never disappoints. Be it on foot, on four wheels or on water, this is an outdoor playground like no other waiting to be explored.


Day 5

Classic coastal scenery

Sit back and enjoy the ride beside a truly superlative stretch of Scottish coastline, pivotal in World War II history. Famed for its sandy beaches, whitewashed cottages and glorious island views set against a jagged mountainous backdrop.

Day 6

Conquering the Bealach na Ba pass

Take on arguably the most classic drive of the NC500 by conquering the Bealach na Ba pass, an old drovers’ road peppered with Highland cattle. Stop for the best seafood lunch at a humble blue cabin on route to the magical island of Skye.

Day 7

Discover stunning Skye

Mystical Skye is an intriguing mix of moody mountains, fairy pools, peaty malts and fabulous fruits de mer. Admire the pretty pastel buildings of Portree, sample a wee dram at the Talisker Distillery or freshly hand-shucked oyster at the Oyster Shed.

Day 8

Scotland’s most iconic castle

Float back in style to the mainland by Kylerhea’s legendary turntable ferry or crest the Skye Bridge to Scotland’s most photographed castle, Eilean Donan. Glimpse the Jacobite Steam Train at Glenfinnan Viaduct to end your day in peaceful Port Appin.

Day 9

Return to Edinburgh

Cruise back to ‘civilisation’ by taking either the ‘high road’ through Glencoe to drive the ‘Skyfall’ road in the tracks of James Bond or the ‘low road’ to the natural beauty of lush Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park where both routes meet.
