Scotch on the Rocks

The rise of sustainable tourism has helped Scotland maintain its stunning surroundings and keep its legacy alive with as little impact as possible, and this tour allows you to enjoy the best views by boat, rail, and cable car. Enter the ‘Gateway to the Isles’ to Mull and receive a warm Hebridean welcome in the form of traditional Scottish scones at the imposing Duart Castle. Head into the clouds for a breath of fresh mountain air before the birds-eye panorama of shimmering lochs and lush glens takes it away again on the only mountain gondola in Scotland, which stands adjacent to Ben Nevis. Head further along the coast with a meandering train ride through the remote wilderness from Fort William to Mallaig, taking in the impressive Glenfinnan Viaduct, curving high over the waters of Loch Shiel, before heading over by ferry to Skye to enjoy a fabulous lunch set on the uniquely picturesque volcanic island.
