Heading west towards Loch Lomond we take time for a short panoramic tour of Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow and see how this once industrial giant is again flourishing. Soon after passing the River Clyde, we come to the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond, Britains largest expanse of water, with time for a boat trip or a ramble as you wish. Moving on we soon come to the village of Aberfoyle, the gateway to the Trossachs where we will stop for lunch. With its lochs, glens and heather covered mountains this area is known as "Scotland in Miniature", and was a favourite destination of Sir Walter Scott, who used the location as the backdrop for his ’Rob Roy’ and ’The Lady of the Lake.’

Soon after driving through the picturesque village of Callander we pass the massive 14th century Doune Castle, which was featured in the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Then on to Stirling, with an opportunity to visit the castle or other nearby attractions and take in the magnificent views over the Forth Valley towards the imposing Wallace Monument, the memorial to the man immortalised in the movie Braveheart. Leaving Stirling we pass Bannockburn, scene of Robert The Bruces famous victory over the English in 1314. Then on to Linlithgow Palace, birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots in 1542.

Gray Line offers a courtesy collection service from many of Edinburghs Hotels and Guest Houses.
