Trade the city for lochs and shaggy cattle on the Hairy Coos & Highland Views day trip. Ride through the Trossachs, pause at Loch Katrine and photograph Highland coos before returning by the Queensferry bridges.
Full description
This roughly 8-hour coach trip heads north past Stirling and the Kelpies to either Deanston Distillery or Blackness Castle, depending on the date booked. It continues into the Trossachs for Loch Katrine and Loch Achray, with stops for photos of Highland cattle, and finishes with views of the Queensferry bridges on the way back.
Commentary comes from the driver, and reviewers praise the guides' humour and knowledge. It is a gentler, shorter alternative to the long Highland day tours.
