Route through Northern Scotland and the Highlands

Tales of monsters and knights in the heart of the Scottish Highlands

Discover this incredible Route that will allow you to explore the Scottish Highlands at your leisure. A land of strength and character, forged in climatological conditions that can at times be severe, it has managed to create its own essence and make its space an intimate place, full of passion, but also of mystery. Loch Ness will always be mysterious, thanks to its monster and all the legend that surrounds it. The Glen Coe Valley, Lairg and the wonderful Orkney Islands, the birthplace of the Neolithic period are all unique places. Its monoliths and buildings will take you back tens of centuries in time. And you'll be tempted to look up to the skies, since these lands are the perfect place to view the northern lights. Food and drink is essential on any trip. Here you can taste the purest of flavours. From the always delicious Angus beef to smoked salmon or freshly caught trout. A diet that can evoke Vikings, like the cuisine in Inverness, the capital of the Highlands. Here time seems to stop. Either in the village of Luss or in Thurso, one of the northernmost cities. To leave behind these places you have to think of enclaves as impressive as Loch Lomond, Fort Augustus or Fort William, ideal places to enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities.

Important remarks

- From 5 March 2025, it is mandatory to obtain an ETA Electronic Travel Authorisation in advance and online to enter the United Kingdom. This form must be obtained through the website Apply for an electronic travel authorisation (ETA) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

- Triple rooms in Europe are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.

- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.

- The proposed excursions and tours for each day are purely suggestions, as you can tailor the trip to suit your times, tastes and needs.

- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.

- Hotels usually have cots available. Otherwise, babies will have to share a bed with an adult.

- To pick up your rental car, you'll need a credit (not debit) card in the name of the person who made the booking, who must also be the named driver of the vehicle.

- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.

- This itinerary has been prepared in collaboration with the British National Tourism Office (Visit Britain).

- Suggested round-trip ferry rides are optional and not included in the final price. If you intend to take the car on a ferry, please let the rental company know at the time of pick-up to receive authorisation. Depending on the conditions agreed to in the rental contract and the company you choose, you might be charged a fee payable at the destination.
