Loch Lomond

Loch Lomond, Scotland’s largest loch, is your introduction to the spectacular Highlands on many of our small group tours.

This famous body of water is the beating heart of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, 720 square miles of diverse scenery from lush rolling countryside and thick forest, to vast glens and craggy mountains.

As we sojourn up the loch’s western shores you’ll have a fantastic view of Ben Lomond, Scotland’s most southerly Munro (a mountain over 3000 feet high).

Our luxury mini coach will pop into the traditional village of Luss on the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. Its cottages have been beautifully preserved from the 18^th and 19^th centuries and in the summer the villagers take great pride in their lavish floral displays. Luss has been a Christian settlement for at least 1500 years and its wonderfully restored church with its lychgate is well worth a visit. There’s even evidence of the Vikings having raided this area in 1263 in their stone ‘hogback’ grave in the atmospheric churchyard.

We can enjoy a paddle on the lovely beach, or a wander onto the picturesque Luss pier with an ice cream, during our three and four day tours to the Highlands, Skye and Mull from Glasgow and Edinburgh. You can also appreciate this stunning setting during our one day tours to the Highlands, Glencoe and Loch Ness from Glasgow.
