Private Excursion to the Highlands and Loch Ness for 2 - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Leaving Edinburgh, your tour will begin with a scenic drive to the medieval city of Stirling, where you will see the magnificent Stirling Castle (only from the outside). Overlooking the ancient city of Stirling, the castle is one of the most iconic historic buildings of Scotland and has come to symbolize the spirit of this great nation. Along your tour, your guide will share with you the history of Scotland’s long, violent, and bloody past, while also sharing its vibrant culture. You will then proceed towards one of the most scenic areas in Scotland, Glencoe, and the peaks of the Three Sisters ridge. From there, you will have the opportunity to visit Fort William, one of Scotland's popular western highland towns that rests in the shadow of Ben Nevis, the UK's highest peak. In the afternoon, you will continue your journey to Loch Ness, with your opportunity to spot the Loch Ness monster for yourself! Whilst there, enjoy a one-hour cruise (included) on the world-famous Loch Ness. On your return journey, your guide will take you through beautiful scenery! Please note: if you make this trip in winter, the sun will set quite early, and you will not be able to see the forest.
