As your mini-coach traverses dense forests and rolling hills, your guide provides commentary that details Scottish legends such as William Wallace and Rob Roy MacGregor, the Scottish equivalent of Robin Hood. See the scenic areas of Luss, Loch Lomond, and The Trossachs National Park before heading to Inveraray where you have the option to visit the castle (open April - October) or wander around the town and have lunch.
