We’ll hit the road from Edinburgh and pass by Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s most iconic strongholds, perched high on a volcanic crag.

Next up is Doune Castle, famous as a filming location for Outlander, Game of Thrones and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Then it’s on to Deanston Distillery, where you can visit a working whisky distillery and enjoy a wee dram.

After that, we’ll pass through Kilmahog, where you’ll meet our furry friends Hamish, Honey, and Baxter, three Highland cows who are practically local celebrities. We’ll also take in the views of Loch Lubnaig, a peaceful stretch of water framed by forested hills, perfect for a scenic stop.

As we head further into the Highlands, the landscape becomes wilder and more dramatic by the mile. And then Glen Coe. This glacial valley is pure highland drama, with towering peaks, deep green glens, and the unforgettable Three Sisters mountain range. We’ll stop to take in the views, stretch the legs, and hear a bit of the area’s history.

This full-day adventure mixes history, whisky, wildlife, and world-class scenery, all delivered in a relaxed and friendly style. Whether you’re here for the landscapes, the stories, or the experience, this tour delivers a proper taste of the Highlands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Glen Coe worth visiting from Edinburgh?

Without a doubt. Glen Coe is one of the most spectacular places in Scotland and is often the highlight of a visitor's trip. The mountains, scenery and sheer scale of the landscape are difficult to put into words until you've experienced them for yourself.

How long does it take to get to Glen Coe from Edinburgh?

It's around three hours each way, but the journey is a huge part of the experience. We make plenty of stops along the way, so it never feels like a long drive. There is always something to see, whether that's Highland cows, lochs, mountains or some of Scotland's most beautiful scenery.

What is the difference between Glen Coe and Loch Lomond?

Both are fantastic day trips, but they offer very different experiences. Loch Lomond combines lochs, villages and Highland scenery, while Glen Coe is all about dramatic mountains, wide open landscapes and some of the most breathtaking views in Scotland.

Can you see Highland cows on the Glen Coe Tour?

Yes. We usually stop at Kilmahog where guests can meet some of Scotland's famous hairy Highland cows. They are always one of the most popular photo stops of the day.

Where do you stop for lunch on the Glen Coe Tour?

We usually stop in the village of Balquhidder at Mhor 84, one of our favourite lunch spots. It's a relaxed place with great food and sits in a beautiful part of the Scottish countryside. It's the perfect place to take a break before continuing north towards Glen Coe.
