Loch Tummel Hotel 5 Day Edinburgh Tattoo
First Day
Arrive at the Loch Tummel Hotel in time for dinner.
Perth and entry into Scone Palace
Sitting on the banks of the River Tay, Perth is the cosmopolitan centre and bustling city of rural Perthshire offering a range of entertainment, shops, cafes and restaurants. Visit the recently renovated Perth Museum, home to The Stone of Destiny, an ancient symbol of Scotland. A stone that helped to make kings and queens, it was used in the inauguration of Scottish monarchs at Scone Palace, just upriver from Perth. The Stone’s story stretches back through the ages and is still used to crown kings and queens of the United Kingdom today, including the coronation of King Charles III in 2023. Scone breathes history like nowhere else in Scotland. It is the family home of the Earls of Mansfield and the ancient crowning place of Scottish kings on the stone of Scone. You can wander down the Long Galley where King Charles II strode to his coronation in 1661. During the Jacobite rebellions, the ‘Old Pretender’ spent three weeks at Scone while his son, Bonnie Prince Charlie, visited in 1745. Step outside the Palace and nature awaits in abundance. There are no formal gardens at Scone, but 100 acres of woodland gardens with their borders, flowering shrubs and trees create a gloriously peaceful setting for strolling or picnicking
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.
Aberfeldy & Pitlochry
Where rolling lowland hills meet rugged highland mountains, these bustling towns have plenty to do and see. Lying on the shores of Scotland’s longest river, the River Tay, Aberfeldy has spectacular views of the Falls of Moness. Finally visit the friendly little town of Pitlochry with its quaint architecture and beautiful scenery, as well as local crafts and produce.
