This tour will take you along the banks of Loch Lomond and over bleak and desolate Rannoch Moor. The tour will continue to Fort William, in the Shadow of Ben Nevis (the highest mountain in the UK), then through the Great Glen to Fort Augustus at the southern tip of Loch Ness. You will then head along the shores of Loch Ness (keeping a watchful eye out for the Loch Ness Monster) until we reach Urquhart Castle. It is from this ancient ruin that the majority of the sightings of Nessie have been made. After time to explore the castle the tour will retrace the route back, enjoying some more of Scotland’s spectacular scenery.
