Loch Lomond Cruise, Stirling and Oban

Local departure by coach or Home Connect service and then on to Tarbet Hotel on the shores of Loch Lomond.

Today we travel through the Trossachs National Park to reach the magnificent city of Stirling. Dominated by the splendid castle and National Wallace Monument, there is so much to discover in the Old Town and Victorian arcades.

Later in the day, we return taking a scenic trip via Callander to travel through Brig O'Turk and Dukes Pass, before calling at Aberfoyle and then following the shores of Loch Lomond back to the hotel.

This morning we take to the waters of magnificent Loch Lomond with an included cruise to soak up the scenery and beautiful surroundings of Scotland's first National Park.

Relax at the hotel this afternoon, or why not join our optional excursion travelling over the Rest and Be Thankful Pass to reach the white-walled town of Inveraray? Whilst here you may choose to visit 19th century Inveraray Jail, one of the finest and best-preserved jail and courtroom complexes in the world.

Today we journey west towards the coast and the bustling harbour town of Oban.

Known as the 'Gateway to the Isles', you can see many boats leaving the harbour to head out to Mull and the Hebrides. These boats often bring back with them fantastic fresh seafood, as well as connecting the people of this remote and beautiful corner of Scotland. Why not head to the Oban Chocolate Shop for a sweet treat, or the Oban Distillery for a 'wee' dram? Or, take the steep walk up to McCaig's Tower and be rewarded with wonderful views of the coast, the Island of Kerrera and the outlying isles.

Return home.
