After its sell-out debut in 2023 we are proud to offer this Scottish tour, with a maritime feel, based in the bustling city of Glasgow. The highlight for many will be our day out on P.S. Waverley but there is so much more besides, with trips out of the city to the Trossachs and the Isle of Arran. Take a look at this amazing itinerary, it’s among the best we do!
Let’s start off with a cruise, though not on the Clyde. The rail journey to Crianlarich is a great way to start the day as it hugs the north coast of the Clyde and then the banks of Loch Lomond. Here we meet our coach and head into the Trossachs National Park pausing at Callender around lunchtime. In the afternoon we discover Loch Katrine, made famous by Sir Walter Scott and enjoy a serene, scenic, cruise. Then, we drive south through the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park to Balloch, at the foot of Loch Lomond, and catch a train back to Glasgow.
This classy establishment is situated on Waterloo Street, just a 5-minute stroll from Glasgow Central Station, and it oozes character. Originally a power station built in 1800 it retains high ceilings, Victorian architecture, and the walls are adorned with murals from local artists. Rooms come with all you would expect of a 4 star hotel and dining is on a buffet basis. Glasgow itself is vibrant, full of life, and interesting architecture abounds. It even has a metro system, The Clockwork Orange, which we will of course use.
