Explore the diverse art collections at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. Socialize with your tour director and fellow travelers during a welcome drink. The evening is yours to enjoy independent dining.

Embark on a brief cruise of Loch Lomond to marvel at the splendor of this renowned lake and enjoy panoramic vistas. Explore the town of Inveraray and have lunch at your leisure before participating in a guided tour of Inveraray Castle, famously showcased in "Downton Abbey". Traverse Rannoch Moor and pass through Glencoe, frequently hailed as one of Scotland’s most breathtaking and picturesque locations. Proceed to Ballachulish, situated on the shores of Loch Leven.

Journey along the picturesque "Road to the Isles," pausing for photo opportunities at the Glenfinnan Monument. Take a ferry to the Isle of Skye to explore Armadale Castle, an enchanting ruin surrounded by splendid gardens. Return to the mainland and travel along the shores of Loch Ness. Conclude the day at your Nairn hotel, a charming manor house nestled on expansive grounds near the North Sea.

Near Nairn, you'll find the Culloden Battlefield, where British government forces triumphed over the army led by Prince Charles Edward Stuart, commonly known as Bonnie Prince Charlie. Explore the battlefield and the visitor center. Proceed through the stunning Highland landscapes to a nearby farm for a demonstration of skilled sheepdogs herding sheep. Journey through the lofty peaks of the Grampian Mountains to reach your elegant manor-style hotel near Pitlochry.

Explore Blair Castle, the residence of the Dukes and Earls of Atholl. Uncover the historical narratives involving figures like Mary, Queen of Scots, Bonnie Prince Charlie, and learn how Queen Victoria's notable visit gave rise to Europe's sole private army, the Atholl Highlanders. Take a behind-the-scenes tour at Blair Athol Distillery, concluding with a sample of the final product. Enjoy the afternoon at your leisure, either strolling through the hotel gardens and museum or indulging in shopping in Pitlochry.

Journey through verdant countryside to explore Glamis Castle, the iconic backdrop of "Macbeth" and the childhood residence of the late Queen Mother. This grand edifice is adorned with priceless artifacts and furnishings. Continue to St Andrews, renowned as the "Home of Golf," to visit the notable Royal and Ancient Clubhouse and the Old Course. Take advantage of free time to wander through the medieval town. Proceed to your hotel near Edinburgh, where you'll partake in a Scottish evening featuring traditional cuisine, music, and dancing. For departures between July 27 and August 18, attendees have an evening free to explore and dine independently.

Discover Edinburgh by contrasting the expansive streets and refined mansions of the Georgian "New Town," established 200 years ago, with the narrow alleyways and medieval townhouses along the Royal Mile, the city's oldest section. Explore the grand Edinburgh Castle, offering magnificent views of the city. The remainder of the day is open for individual exploration, shopping, and dining. For those departing between July 27 and August 18, there's an opportunity to experience the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo on the Castle Esplanade.
