On this spectacular coach tour, we combine one of the greatest shows on earth, the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, with an exploration of the wonderful sights of Scotland. Take a scenic drive around the beautiful Trossachs on route to the city of Stirling, before heading to the stunning capital of Edinburgh, where you can take some free time before you enjoy the Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The Tattoo is a 90-minute spectacle of innovative production, heart-stopping sound and fantastic fireworks. On this tour, we also spend time on the ‘bonnie banks’ of Loch Lomond, where pretty villages stand along its shores.

Regional departure by Silver Service coach, then to Scotland, arriving at our hotel this evening for a four-night stay.
Today’s included excursion takes you through the forested hills, stunning mountains and beautiful lochs of the Trossachs to the town of Stirling, the ancient capital of Scotland. Here the streets of the Old Town all wind upwards towards the castle. From the castle you can admire the surrounding landscape, known as ‘Braveheart Country’, following Hollywood’s interpretation of the life of William Wallace, Scotland’s first freedom fighter.
After a leisurely morning we travel to Edinburgh, one of Europe’s great capital cities. Walk the Royal Mile, which links Castle Hill (the city’s oldest street), the Lawnmarket, High street and Cannongate and runs through the heart of the Old Town. Take time to discover the atmospheric ‘closes’ or alleys running rib-like off the backbone of the Mile. There is also a good choice of pubs, restaurants and teashops – so it’s easy to find refreshments while exploring.
In the evening, we take our seats for the Edinburgh Military Tattoo (admission included). The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo draws together a host of creative talent from four continents. With innovative production, heart-stopping sound, imaginative graphics, state-of-the-art lighting and specially commissioned fireworks, this is a 90-minute show not to be missed.
Castlehill, the old-cobbled approach to the Esplanade, is on a steep incline, and consequently, may prove difficult for some. In addition, there is a short walk uphill from the entrance of the arena to the seats. This includes a minimum of 5 steps to reach the front row seats followed by 3 more steps per row to the seating higher up in the stands.
Travel Insurance from £18.00 (5 days) (includes insurance premium tax, prices per person). Single Room Supplement from £109.00 (5 days).

We are unable to guarantee that the hotel will be able to meet your dietary requirements. We find that the majority of European countries do not generally cater for vegetarians and that the meal supplied may well be what everyone else is having minus the meat.
We will of course endeavour to arrange for a vegetarian meal at the hotel. We do however suggest that you advise us of your dietary requests at the time of booking and recommend that you speak to the receptionist on arrival with regard to your request.
