What you can expect

This tour is ideal for those who wish to enjoy beautiful scenery and see some of Scotland’s most famous Castles”
See Mountains, Castles, Waterfalls, Wildlife and listen to the stories and history from our experienced driver guides.
On this tour you will experience Doune Castle; most recently famous as Castle Leoch in the TV show Outlander.
Not to be outshone Inverary Castle was featured in the TV show City centre Abbey.
A truly enjoyable day in the Scottish Highlands

Our first stop is Doune - a well preserved 14th century Castle, set amid lovely Stirlingshire countryside.
Take an audio tour of the Castle* which is narrated by Monty Python's Terry Jones. Hear the exciting history of the medieval Castle and residents. Doune Castle is the atmospheric stand-in for the fictional Castle Leoch in the TV show Outlander and has also been used as a film location for Game of Thrones.
Gray Line offers you a discount on the ticket price to Doune Castle

We then have a comfort stop before heading into the Highlands. Passing Lochs and Mountains we stop for a photo at Kilchurn Castle settled on the banks of Loch Awe; this is one of the most photographed Castles in Scotland, often used in Calendars

On arriving at Inverary your driver guide will give you a tour of the picturesque town where you will have time to enjoy lunch, and perhaps visit the Jail or Castle (featured in City centre Abbey)

On departing Inverary we enjoy the views of Loch Fyne, famous for seafood, and we head over the mountains with a brief photograph stop at the top of the Rest & Be Thankful Pass.

Our last stop will be in the village of Luss located on the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. We then return back to Edinburgh via Stirling with views of the Castle.
