Enjoy included entry to Edinburgh Castle and immerse yourself in its fascinating and often bloodthirsty history!

Check-out from your hotel in Edinburgh and drive towards Scotland's second-largest city, Aberdeen.

Famed for its incredible Aberdeen Angus beef castle, craggy landscape, and grey-stone granite capital, Aberdeenshire is a delight to explore.

The area encompasses the vast Cairngorms National Park, thick with forest-clad mountains and heather moorlands. Swathes of sand line the coast, dotted with historic fishing villages.

And Aberdeenshire isn't known as Scotland's Castle Country for nothing: the region has 19 castles including Balmoral (summer house to the Royal Family), and Dunottar. You'll have an included visit to Dunnottar Castle, which towers on crumbling cliffs above the waves.

En route to your next destination in Inverness, stop in Dufftown for your included visit to Glenfiddich Distillery. Glenfiddich is a single malt Scotch whisky, and the world's bestseller since 2017.

Learn about the history of the distillery, first founded in 1886, and follow the whisky making process from its humble beginnings to the fiery golden liquid poured into each bottle. After your visit, continue onto the Inverness area where you'll spend the night.

DAY 6: INVERNESS

Inverness's most famous resident is said to inhabit the gloomy depths of the vast Loch Ness. And while the loch itself is a stunning destination, visitors are sure to be impressed by the city's art gallery and museum, picturesque pink castle, and imposing cathedral too.

There's a lively drinking and dining scene, with a whole array of excellent restaurants serving menus of top Scottish produce. And you'll have the added bonus of an included cream tea during your stay in the area.

Enjoy an included entry to Dunrobin Castle. The most northerly of Scotland's great houses and the largest in the Highlands, the enormous property resembles a French château. The ancestral home of Earls and Dukes since the early 1300s, it has a particularly illustrious past.

On Day 7, you'll have the opportunity to visit Dewar's Aberfeldy Distillery. This Scottish whisky producer offers tastings, an interactive museum, and tours of the distillery that dates from the 1890s. Find out how they create the honeyed richness of the spirit.

Continue on towards the Perth, Pitlochry and Dundee region. Stop at the Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier where you can continue your gourmet experience with a complimentary hot chocolate, made with any milk of your choosing.

You'll spend the night in the Perth, Pitlochry and Dundee area, where you can tuck into a hearty three-course dinner to celebrate the final night of your tour.
