Cruise Loch Katrine, The Trossachs & Killin
Killin is a pretty village famous for the spectacular series of rapids that run through the centre – The Falls of Dochart. Wander around the little village and enjoy the short walks that explore the Falls before heading to the beautiful Trossachs. ‘The Highlands in miniature’ – this area is one of the most romantic in Scotland, with wild little glens, tranquil Lochs, miles of forest and rolling hills. Soak up the spectacular scenery of Loch Katrine and enjoy a cruise on board the famous Sir Walter Scott steamship. A cruise is the perfect way to enjoy the romantic landscapes and timeless beauty of the Trossachs. The Sir Walter Scott is a historic ship and has been cruising on these waters since 1900. Named after the author Sir Walter Scott, who played a huge part in romanticising Loch Katrine in his poem Lady of the Lake.
Helensburgh & Luss
Step into Colquhoun territory and visit Helensburgh and the pretty village of Luss. Helensburgh is a handsome Victorian holiday resort on the River Clyde to the west of Glasgow. The town was founded at the end of the 18th century by Sir James Colquhoun who named Helensburgh after his wife – Helen. This popular Victorian holiday destination boasts a long promenade, beautiful parks and pretty gardens. The town’s most iconic feature is Hill House which is the finest domestic masterpiece of the famous Scottish architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Helensburgh boasts many other famous townsmen including Henry Bell, originator of the steamship and John Logie Baird, the inventor of the television. Just a short distance away lies the quaint village of Luss. Developed in the 18th and 19th centuries to house the workers from nearby slate quarries, the village is remarkably unchanged and the identical sandstone and slate cottages became the setting for the successful TV show Take the High Road. Wander down the pebbly street to the pier for breathtaking panoramic views of Loch Lomond against the mighty backdrop of Ben Lomond.
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. Just a short walk from the town sits Inveraray Castle, the ancestral home of the Dukes of Argyll. The castle is a beautiful example of neo-gothic architecture and lies in extensive grounds with many short walks.
Glasgow & Kelvingrove 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 museums, art galleries and architecture. The Edwardian Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum showcases a wide range of objects from Scotland and abroad within one of the most iconic and impressive buildings in Glasgow.
The Falkirk Wheel
Visit the world’s only rotating boat lift, designed to connect the Forth & Clyde Canal to the Union Canal in central Scotland. The Falkirk Wheel is a magnificent triumph in Scottish engineering and has already been recognized as an iconic landmark. Designed to replace a series of 19th century lock-gates the Falkirk Wheel is the showpiece of the Millennium Link project to re-establish coast-to-coast navigation of the canals for the first time in 40 years.
