This journey brings you the best of Scotland, England’s Lake District, North Wales and the Emerald Isle. Your Scottish experience begins in the lively city of Glasgow and continues via the “Bonnie Banks” of Loch Lomond to Fort William and the Highland capital of Inverness. In Edinburgh visit the famous castle and the Queen’s Holyrood Palace, and in the lowland hills visit the famous blacksmith’s shop at Gretna Green before crossing the border into England. Delight in the beauty of the peaceful Lake District on your way to historic Chester. Explore the north Welsh towns of Betws-y-Coed and Caernarvon, then take a ferry across the Irish Sea to the “Fair City” of Dublin. Blarney, the Ring of Kerry, the Cliffs of Moher and the Giant’s Causeway are all included before your Irish experience is completed with a visit to Belfast in the company of a Local Guide. Back to Glasgow to complete this popular holiday.
