Scotland's Glens, Highlands & Whisky Day Trip from Edinburgh

Enjoy a day of whisky and waterfalls on a small-group day trip from Edinburgh, led by a friendly local guide! After a stop in Falkirk to see the Kelpies, travel through the Scottish Highlands, passing alongside Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Stop at the Famous Grouse whisky distillery for lunch and a tour (both payable at own expense) and, after sampling a wee dram of whisky, continue to the Hermitage, a natural beauty spot that’s home to the impressive Black Linn Falls.
