from the hotel → Scottish Highlands & Most Scenic Route A82 → Loch Lomond → Glencoe Gorge & Three Sisters Mountain → Ben Nevis Mountain → Fort William → Loch Ness

whole day
After breakfast, drive north into the open and beautiful Scottish Highlands.

Scottish Highlands
There is a large fault on the Scottish landscape, and the area to the west and north of the large fault is high. The Highlands are sparsely populated, different from England, where the scenery is mostly idyllic and soft, the Scottish Highlands are cool and rugged, mostly hills, glens and lochs. The entire Highland area is large, almost half the size of the whole of Scotland. The famous islands of the sky, Loch Ness, Ben Nevis - the highest peak in Britain, and Glencoe Gorge all belong to this area.

Europe"s most beautiful scenic road, the A82
Some tourists describe the A82 as the most beautiful scenic road in the world, it"s no exaggeration to call it the most beautiful scenic road in Europe. It was the setting for the film ,SKYFALL,, and from the western shore of Loch Lomond, you"ll travel north on the A82 as you make your way through the cool highland mountains. From the western shore of Loch Lomond you head north on the A82, gradually penetrating into the cool highland mountains. Here you will find ravines and gullies, often with glacier-cut bays or lakes. The weather in the highlands is unpredictable, with dark clouds covering the low peaks and moisture from the Atlantic Ocean pouring from the tops of the peaks in torrents of water. There are few tall trees on either side of the A82 due to the constant low temperatures and the erosion of the water. However, after a sharp bend at Loch Tulla, a large patch of dense woodland appears on the left - the property of the family of Ian Fleming, the original author of James Bond.

Loch Lomond
Loch Lomond is Scotland"s largest loch in the UK, located in the Trossachs National Park in the southern Scottish Highlands, 27 kilometres northwest of Glasgow. The town of Luss is located on the western shore of Loch Lomond, with more than 20 families. The stone houses that have remained unchanged since the 18th century, visitors come and go, but the town is frozen in time by the loch.

Glencoe Canyon & Three Sisters Mountain
Glencoe Gorge and the Three Sisters Mountains make up the A82, Britain"s most beautiful highway, and the chase scene in Skyfall was filmed on the A82 next to the Highlands. The hills and fields of the highlands are full of romantic, rugged and solitary natural beauty, epic in its grandeur. The waters of the Highlands are so rich and clean that you"ll be jealous, and Britain"s highest peak, the Ben Nevis, is covered in clouds and mist.

Ben Nevis Mountain
Ben Nevis is the highest peak in the British Isles of Great Britain, at 1,343 metres above sea level at the north-eastern end of the Bay of Lorne in western Scotland. The summit is covered with snow all year round, and along the way you can enjoy the unique beauty of the Scottish Highlands lochs and mountains.

Loch Ness
The mysterious Loch Ness, Britain"s third largest freshwater lake, is famous for its myriad of snake-necked, dragon-like monster sightings. Especially since the opening of the Loch Ness Coastal Road, more reports of alleged Loch Ness monster sightings have emerged. As for the possibility of the monster"s existence, it may be a long-extinct snake necked dragon living out its remaining days alone. With an average depth of more than 200 metres and a maximum depth of more than 300 metres, Loch Ness is said to be deep enough to stay frozen all year round in the frigid Scottish Highlands.

Fort William
Situated on the border between the Highlands and the Lowlands, Fort William is a major town on the Scottish Highland Tourist Route. The town has a population of around 10,000 but is the largest town in Scotland after Inverness. Fort William is a quiet and peaceful town with beautiful scenery: with its backdrop of Scotland"s highest peak, the Ben Nevis, and its close proximity to the Great Glen of Nevis, it is the perfect place to experience nature, with its mountains, water, trees, flowers and birds. In addition, the town near one of the best ski slopes in Scotland, is a paradise for skiers; not far from the forest, but also attracts many mountain bikers.

Isle of Skye Full day excursion: portree - Old Man's Rock - Likert Falls - Eileen Donna Castle (exterior)

After breakfast, cross the Skye Bridge, the only bridge that connects to the main island of Scotland, to the most beautiful island in the UK - the Sky Island.

Eileen Donna Castle (exterior)
Eilean Donan Castle is widely regarded as the most romantic castle in Scotland. The castle is built at the confluence of three lochs of the sea, surrounded by magnificent scenery, seemingly lonely, sad and cool. The peaceful waters of the loch and the ancient castle form a picturesque landscape that will put you right in the middle of it. Wildlife is abundant here and you will be lucky to see many protected and treasured animals such as elk and mountain cows.

Kyle of Lochalsh
Kyle of lochalsh is a gateway hamlet to the Sky Island, where the bridge to the middle of the island can be viewed from a distance. The Scottish Railway reaches its westernmost terminus here, and the railway station, which is surrounded by the sea on three sides, is a unique feature.

ticket prices: the Sky Island Glass Cruise (suspended in winter): £15 per person.

Portree
The capital of Sky Island, a small, quiet, ancient seaside town away from the hustle and bustle of the world, the rows of small colorful houses in the town of Portree are considered a local landmark, appearing in many postcards and photographs. Seemingly without any reason, a row of ordinary houses in the middle of the sudden emergence of several small pink houses, pink, blue, green, pink and yellow, against the blue sky, white clouds, blue sea, green mountains, attracting countless tourists.

Isle of Skye
Isle of Skye means ,Island in the Mist,, and the island is covered by clouds and fog for a long time, so it is also called ,the hidden island in the sky,, which is known as the wonderland at the end of the world. At the junction of the sea and the sky, in the midst of the smoky rain, the sea and the sky are all in one color, and it is hard to distinguish the boundary between the sea and the sky. The beauty of Sky Island is not only because of its natural and mysterious scenery, but also because of its unique history and culture, which touches people"s souls. The island is isolated from the land and is the best-preserved part of Gaelic culture.

Old Man"s Rock.
Through the graceful Lake Storr, we can see a boulder rising from the rocks, like an old man overlooking the island, also like a guardian defending the island.

Klit Rock Cliffs & Lealt Falls
This skirt-like looking rock is one of Scotland"s postcard-worthy sights. It gets its name from the fact that the cliffs and crags there look like the folds of a Scottish kilt. Walking to the edge of the cliff, a small but very fast waterfall can be seen, the water rapidly out of the cliff, directly into the sea 200 feet below, with a loud crash, this is the famous Lealt Falls.

departure from hotel → St Andrews → Forth Bridge → Edinburgh

Depart after breakfast at 8:00, followed by a brief stop in the small town of Pitlochry for an excursion to St. Andrews.

St Andrews (the place where Princess Kate and Prince William fell in love)
St. Andrews, the town where Prince William and Princess Kate met, is also the birthplace of golf, with the oldest golf course and the oldest tournament in the world at 600 years old. The University of St. Andrews is the oldest public university in Scotland and the third oldest in the English-speaking world. It was Prince William"s university of choice and it is where he met and fell in love with Princess Kate. St. Andrew"s Cathedral was once regarded as the greatest building in medieval Scotland, and the cemetery was once reserved for the nobility, with the oldest said to be over 600 years old.

Forth Bridge
The Forth Bridge, the world"s first steel bridge, was approved for inscription on the World Heritage List in 2015. The Forth Bridge is 2.5 km long and was designed by John Frawer and Benjamin Baker. Using cantilevered steel girders to support two spans of forty-six metres each, 58,000 tonnes of steel was used, so the bridge is spectacular from the outside. The two bridges use one suspension, one bracket, and the bracket as the main body of the railway bridge is attached to the arch as a support.

Edinburgh
We visit Edinburgh, the political and cultural centre of Scotland, which is one of the most beautiful cities in the UK. Castles, palaces, wine and music surround the city, giving Edinburgh a unique charm. Edinburgh Castle, at the top of the hill, is one of the most famous castles in Europe and is the symbol and spiritual backbone of the entire city. The stately castle is a testament to too many English and Scottish feuds.
Ancillary items and ticket prices reference.
Edinburgh Castle: £16.50 per person: children (5-15): £9.90; seniors (60+): £13.20; (tickets are subject to seasonal price changes without notice)

Princes Street
Princes Street divides Edinburgh into the Old and New Towns, with the New Town to the north and the Old Town to the south. Between the New and Old Towns is a long hill with a clear natural barrier. Prince Street is known as ,the most scenic street in the world,. To the south is a verdant green area, with the Princes Street Gardens at the eastern end. Prince Street is just over a mile long and is lined with exclusive designer shops. At the west end of the street, there are Jenner, Zara, Bhs, Debenhams, Fraser, Marks & Spencer, etc. The prices of international brands are cheaper than in China. International name brands are about 25% cheaper than at home.  

Carlton Hill (optional)
There are two monuments on Carlton Hill, a National Monument, built in 1822 to commemorate the men who died in the Napoleonic Wars. However, the monument is unfinished, with only a row of massive columns supporting the beams. Construction was reportedly interrupted due to budget overruns. The other is the Nelson Monument, which was built in memory of Admiral Nelson. Every day at 1pm when Edinburgh Castle fires its cannon, the small ball at the top of the Nelson Monument tower is lowered. There is also a striking dome on Carlton Hill, which is the Edinburgh City Observatory. (This attraction is optional and guests can make their own arrangements depending on time)

Royal Mile Road
The Royal Mile is the central thoroughfare of Edinburgh"s Old Town, starting at Edinburgh Castle and ending at the Palace of the Holy Cross, with a series of lanes that form the backbone of the Old Town. The circular stone floors are polished and the buildings along the avenue are austere and historic. Every afternoon, bagpipers are played by street performers in kilt dresses, which is a constant reminder that you are in the heart of Scotland"s ancient past.

departure from hotel→York half day tour: York Old Wall - York Cathedral - Butcher's Row→Drop off at each site

After breakfast, drive to London via York, an ancient city with 1900 years of history and a blend of cultures from different eras, which can be described as a microcosm of British history. We will visit the following sites.

York Old Wall
It is the best preserved and longest medieval wall in Britain, similar to the feeling of the Great Wall of Britain, with a total length of 3.4 kilometers, almost surrounding the whole city center of York.

York Cathedral
York Cathedral is the largest surviving medieval period church in Europe and one of the most superbly designed and built churches in the world. Construction began in 1220 A.D. and was completed in 1470 A.D. It took more than two hundred years to build. The church, built mainly of stone, is magnificent and beautifully crafted, and has remained solid and upright for hundreds of years. The tower at the top of the church, like a sword sticking out of the sky, gives people a sense of historical depth and dignity, especially the carvings that are so impressive.

York Butcher"s Street
York Butcher"s Street is the best preserved and most quaint old medieval street in England to date. It used to be a butcher"s shop, but meat tends to spoil in the sun, so the road was deliberately made narrower to avoid excessive sunlight. The butcher"s street is barely exposed to sunlight all year round and is cool in the summer. It is the prototype of ,Diagonal Alley, where the little wizards in the Harry Potter movies bought all kinds of magic props and books.
