Itinerary
Monday: We depart the Travel Centre this morning and make our way north, making adequate comfort stops en route, before arriving back in Perth late afternoon.

Tuesday: Today, we begin with a visit to Aberfeldy, Scotland’s first FairTrade town, before continuing pass Taymouth Castle at Kenmore village on the shores of glorious Loch Tay. We journey along the side of the loch, arriving in Killin where we take in the spectacular ‘Falls of Dochart’. Our final visit of the day is to the market town of Crieff.

Wednesday: We follow in the footsteps of countless kings this morning as we visit Scone Palace. Here we explore the unique collections at our own pace with guides in each room to answer questions before stepping outside where over 100 acres of fabulous Perthshire grounds are waiting to be discovered. In the afternoon, we head back to Perth for a guided tour of the Black Watch Museum, housed in the dramatic Balhousie Castle, our guide will bring to life the fascinating story of Scotland’s oldest Highland regiment.

Thursday: This morning we visit the Bannockburn Visitor Centre Experience for a guided tour. We discover how in 1314 the tactics of the opposing kings changed the path of Scotland’s history forever.
