About this tour
This 8.5-hour private tour departs Greenock and ventures into Scotland's dramatic western landscape, taking in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park before reaching Inveraray Castle, seat of Clan Campbell. You'll stop in the hillside village of Luss and travel through rugged Highland terrain, returning to port with comfortable timing before your ship departs. A knowledgeable guide accompanies you throughout, and the itinerary is paced to feel unhurried rather than clock-watching.
Highlights
- Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park scenery
- Village walk through Luss with mountain backdrop
- Clyde ferry crossing included in journey
- Inveraray Castle, ancestral home of Clan Campbell
- West Highlands' raw, unmanicured landscape

What to expect
You'll be collected from Greenock port and travel by private car through Scotland's most striking scenery. The route crosses the Clyde by ferry before climbing into the Highlands. Luss offers a chance to wander its quiet streets flanked by Ben Lomond's slopes. The landscape shifts from lowland to wild moorland as you head towards Inveraray, where the castle dominates a glen. The castle interior (entry fee separate) rewards exploration, though if closed on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, Inveraray Jail provides a worthwhile alternative. Much of the day comprises travel, allowing gradual absorption of the terrain rather than rushed stops.
Good to know
Castle admission costs extra (adults £16.50, seniors £14.50, children 5–15 £12, students £14.50). The castle closes Tuesdays and Wednesdays seasonally; Inveraray Jail substitutes well. Transport is wheelchair-accessible; prams, strollers and specialist infant seats are available. No meals or refreshments included—bring snacks or purchase en route.
