• The Kelpies & The Helix - Departing from Edinburgh’s New Town, the journey leaves the city’s hustle behind, embarking on a scenic day trip through Scotland’s breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and finest whisky.

Early in the trip, the towering 30-meter-high sculptures of mythical horses, the Kelpies, and Stirling, a symbol of Scottish royalty and history, will be passed.

• Stirling - The route takes us past Stirling, once the capital of Scotland. Look out for the iconic views of the Wallace Monument and Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s most significant and grand castles.
• Deanston Distillery & Visitor Centre - The first stop is at Deanston Distillery, a historic site that was once a bustling cotton mill and now crafts exceptional single malt whiskies.

Enjoy a guided tour through the distillery to discover the time-honored whisky-making process and the fascinating story behind this unique location. Conclude the visit with a tasting of Deanston’s finest expressions, introducing the rich flavors and distinctive character of their whiskies. Alternatively, enjoy a stroll by the banks of the River Teith or relax in the distillery’s Coffee Bothy.

• Loch Katrine - The journey continues deeper into the heart of the Trossachs to Loch Katrine, a stunning freshwater loch. Known for its peaceful beauty, Loch Katrine was immortalized in Sir Walter Scott’s famous poem, The Lady of the Lake. Admire the beauty of the Scottish landscape and relax by the tranquil waters, surrounded by forests and mountains.
• Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park - Not far away and still within the Trossachs National Park, a short stop will be made at Loch Achray, a smaller but equally picturesque loch nestled between the towering Ben A’an and Ben Venue mountains. The area around the loch is serene and peaceful, offering another chance to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish Highlands.

No Scottish adventure is complete without a visit to the iconic Hairy Coos—the legendary Highland cattle. Stop for photos and enjoy the charm of these furry giants that are synonymous with Scotland’s countryside.

• Forth Bridge - On the return to Edinburgh, views of Scotland’s greatest piece of engineering, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Forth Bridge, will be seen. This 19th-century engineering marvel was once the world’s longest cantilever bridge. Today, it neighbors the 20th-century Forth Road Bridge and the 21st-century Queensferry Crossing, which opened in 2017. Three spectacular bridges, from three different centuries, span the Firth of Forth, connecting the capital city and the Kingdom of Fife.
• Edinburgh - The journey back to Edinburgh begins, carrying memories of Scotland’s historic landmarks, serene lochs, and breathtaking natural scenery. The aim is to return to the Scottish capital in the late afternoon, around 4:30 PM.
