    Day One: Arrival

    Travel north to the Scottish Highlands, arriving at the Highlander Hotel in Newtonmore for a five night stay. Tea, coffee and biscuits are served on arrival, with one evening of hotel entertainment included.

    Day Two

    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.

    Day Three

    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, and 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.

    Day Four

    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' from the Caledonian Canal. Later we leave Fort Augustus and head north overlooking the loch towards Inverness before heading back to Newtonmore.

    Day Five

    After breakfast, we leave and begin our journey home.
