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 Loch Lomond, Loch Awe & Inveraray

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 & the Riverside Museum

Glasgow is Scotland’s largest city and is famed for its vibrancy and the friendliness of its people. The city is constantly developing and has an energetic atmosphere. Glasgow’s industrial roots as the ‘Second City of the Empire’ have given the city its character and Glasgow now offers fabulous art galleries and architecture. Glasgow is also home to some of the world’s finest transport in the Riverside Museum – winner of the 2013 European Museum of the Year Award. Sitting on the banks of the River Clyde the museum is home to over 3000 objects which all showcase Glasgow’s rich past. There are an array of objects, from skateboards to vintage cars, and prams to powerful locomotives. Transport yourself to a different time as you walk down a reconstructed cobbled street with shops dating from 1895-1980s and discover a past Glasgow.
