Itinerary

DAY 1: Depart from your home area in the morning, heading for the Highlander Hotel, Newtonmore. 5 nights stay dinner, bed and breakfast. Tea/coffee and biscuits served on arrival. During your stay one night of hotel entertainment is provided.

DAYS 2 TO 5: During your stay in Newtonmore the following excursions are included:

AVIEMORE & HIGHLAND WILDLIFE-We make our way for Aviemore where we take a break for time to explore, enjoy the scenery and perhaps have a bite to eat. Later we head to the Highland Wildlife Park, home to the famous Scottish Wildcats, many other interesting animals and its own safari drive. *Please note the coach will take you round the park*

KYLE OF LOCHALSH-We travel north into the Highland capital, Inverness. Here we join the Scotrail train for one of the Great Railway Journeys of the World - the line to Kyle of Lochalsh. The route takes us through some of the best scenery in the country, skirting lochs and passing remote villages. After a break in Kyle of Lochalsh we enjoy the return ride, this time by road, back to the hotel.

FORT WILLIAM, GLENFINNAN AND MALLAIG-This excursion takes us southwest along the shore of Loch Laggan and through Glen Spean to Fort William. Here we have another train journey - this time on the celebrated West Highland Line to Mallaig. This spectacular line passes hidden lochs and inlets, silver sands, and crosses the magnificent Glenfinnan viaduct on its way west. Mallaig is a major fishing port, we have time to wander around the harbour and explore the town before we catch the train for the return journey to Fort William. We rejoin the coach here for the ride back to Newtonmore.

LOCH NESS CRUISE-Loch Ness is our destination today. We travel through unspoilt scenery past Loch Mhor and along Stratherrick to Fort Augustus. Whilst here we have time to obtain lunch and we enjoy a cruise, with commentary, on Loch Ness on board 'The Royal Scot' mfrom the Caledonian Canal. Later we leave Fort Augustus and head north overlooking the loch towards Inverness before heading back to Newtonmore. Please be aware there is a few steps/uneven ground on the path down to the cruise boat-walking aids/strollers are not suitable.

DAY 6: After breakfast we leave and continue our journey home.
