Entry into the Edinburgh Military Tattoo
Staged as part of the world famous Edinburgh Fringe-Festival, the Tattoo is a unique experience that showcases music, dance and military pageantry from all over the world. Set at Edinburgh Castle this dramatic performance includes 1,000 musicians, pipers, drummers, singers and dancers who perform on the esplanade. Military bands play old Scottish battle tunes and tell the story of Scotland’s past through their music. Blended with Scottish tradition are some of the best overseas performers who bring colourful and diverse displays of their own culture to make this evening a truly memorable experience! Please note that there is a walk to the castle and steps up to stand-seating. Contact the bookings office for any mobility queries.
Cruise on Loch Lomond then visit Inveraray and Lochawe Village
Visit the ‘Queen of the Scottish Lakes’ and explore the famous bonnie banks. Loch Lomond lies in a national park and is an area of outstanding natural beauty. There is a host of wildlife, plenty of stunning views and many activities in and around the national park. Cruise on Loch Lomond to fully appreciate the landscape and to learn about the turbulent history before travelling west towards stunning Lochawe and Inveraray. Overlooking the still waters of Loch Fyne, Inveraray is the most iconic town in Argyll. This pretty town was founded in 1745 by the 3rd Duke of Argyll, head of the infamous Clan Campbell. Inveraray is a classic example of an 18th century planned town and the Georgian architecture remains unspoilt. There is plenty to do and see in the town and a visit to the neo-Classical church and Inveraray jail are a must.
Glasgow and a visit to Kelvingrove Art Gallery
A visit to Scotland's largest city, Glasgow. Over recent years the city centre has been transformed and is now a mecca for sightseers and shoppers alike. In the afternoon your coach will take you to one of the finest and most visited museum outside London, Kelvingrove Art Gallery, which has undergone extensive restoration to the distinctive Edwardian building that houses a collection of art that has been described as one of the greatest civic collections in Europe. The museum is free of charge.
