Overview

This two-day small-group bus tour from Edinburgh explores key parts of the Scottish Highlands. The group travels by 16-seat Mercedes mini-coach with a driver-guide who leads the trip. The itinerary covers Glencoe, the Great Glen, and the Cairngorms, with time to visit lesser-known locations that larger tours often skip. The tour includes an overnight stay in Inverness at en-suite accommodation with breakfast. On the route, participants take the Jacobite Cruise on Loch Ness and visit Urquhart Castle, both included in the price. Breakfast is provided each morning. The schedule is flexible and may change according to the guide’s decisions and group interests. The tour may run in reverse, and the Loch Ness cruise depends on weather conditions and may be cancelled without notice. Departures start from inside Edinburgh Bus Station at Gates J and K in St Andrew Square. The maximum group size is 16 passengers, with a booking limit of 8 guests per party to maintain the tour’s quality. There is no hotel pickup or drop-off included. Guests should be prepared for walks of 20 to 30 minutes between accommodations and local facilities. Luggage allowance is limited to one piece per person weighing up to 20kg plus a small personal bag. Children under 5 are not permitted, and those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Gratuities and additional admission fees beyond those specified are not included.
