This very small group day trip from Edinburgh in Scotland lasts about nine and a half hours. Transportation is provided by an air-conditioned Mercedes mini coach with a driver-guide who offers live commentary throughout the journey. The group size averages around twelve passengers. The tour begins with a stop at Dunkeld Cathedral, where there is about forty-five minutes to stroll the nearby narrow streets and visit the cathedral, which is free to enter. Next, the tour proceeds to Blair Castle and Gardens, allowing ninety minutes to explore the castle grounds and gardens. Lunch can be purchased at the castle restaurant during this stop. Afterward, the coach travels to Queen's View, a well-known Highland viewpoint overlooking Loch Tummel and the distant peaks of Glen Coe, where there is a thirty-minute stop for photos and sightseeing. The tour then continues to The Hermitage, offering a forty-five-minute riverside walk along paths that pass some of the tallest trees in Britain, leading to a waterfall and viewpoint where salmon are often seen leaping the falls. Along the route, the coach passes the Forth Bridge, providing views of this famous river crossing. There is also a thirty-minute stop to photograph Highland cattle, sometimes called "hairy coos." Entrance fees, food, drinks, and gratuities are not included. The tour operates in all weather conditions unless unsafe, and children must be accompanied by an adult. Service animals must be notified seven days in advance.
