What to expect
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, Scotland
As you pass through Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park and get some magnificent views looking out over Loch Lomond as you pass through the Highland Boundary Fault Line. This is the magical moment you officially enter the grand Scottish Highlands and gain a sense of what the rugged mountainous landscape is really like.
Stop At: West Highland Way, Scotland
You’ll then get out for a beautiful short hike along Scotland premier walking route, the West Highland Way as we make our way towards a lovely small lochan (small lake). It’s believed King Robert the Bruce threw his sword in this lochan to lighten his load, as he was trying to escape the onslaught from a surprise ambush by the MacDougal’s of Lorne. This battle is known as the Battle of Dail Righ and the battle ground is not far from where you’ll be walking.
Duration: 1 hour
Pass By: Buachaille Etive Mor, Ballachulish Scotland
You’ll continue towards Glencoe where on the south of the entrance to the Glen, you’ll see the grandeur of Buachaille Etive Mor, the pyramid shaped mountain stands proudly guarding the entrance to Glencoe and is known by its Gaelic translation as the Great Herdsman.
Stop At: Glencoe, Glencoe, Scottish Highlands, Scotland
Now is the time to experience one of the most gorgeous locations to be found anywhere in Scotland, the rugged, dramatic land of Glencoe. This alluring landscape captures the imagination of almost anyone who travels through the Glen, and you’ve likely saw it before, as the seductive beauty of Glencoe and the surrounding area has featured in many movies and T.V shows, such as, Outlander, Harry Potter, Braveheart, Rob Roy, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Highlander and most recently in Netflix’s Outlaw King featuring Chris Pine.

Stop At: Luss, Luss, Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, Scotland

Very nice tour! Andrew was our guide, he was very friendly and knowledgeable, told us many interesting facts about Scotland and showed us some amazing views. There was only 6 of us on the trip, so the entire experience felt like travelling with a group of friends. We listened to Scottish music on the way, sang together, learned how to skip stones, laughed a lot, were taught Scottish phrases by Andrew and got some nice pictures of us with the flag of Scotland. Highly recommended experience.sole_bc29

Incredible! I cannot say enough about this tour. John, is knowledgeable and provides such interesting information. I learned so much about the Highlands and Scotland's history. This is not a sit in your van and sightsee the tour. Rather, you get out of the van and walk and hike the Highlands. My husband and I ended up taking three tours with Scotland's Wild because they were so wonderful. We loved the hike up the Devil's Stairs in Glencoe and our "treat" at the top! We highly recommend any tour that Scotland's Wild provides.714deedeer

Absolutely recommended excursion to Glencoe and surroundings, a beautiful place full of history and legends. The van of Experience Scotland's Wild is top notch and they make sure that it is a very exclusive experience, the fact that they do it in very small groups in which everyone's opinion is heard is an unquestionable plus. And then there is John, an exceptional guide with tons of information explained in the best way. He extended the time of the tour to make us enjoy some other unforeseen corner and took us through the Devil's Staircase to invite us to a shot of Whisky in the famous pub that gives its name to the staircase. And I thought it was a legend!Abigail_M
