Loch Lomond, Inveraray and Argyll Private Tour from Glasgow

We'll walk through the village to Luss Pier, where we'll see views of Loch Lomond, Ben Lomond (the region's tallest mountain) on the opposite shore, and Loch Lomond itself.

Its imposing curtain wall reflects the imposing mountains that surround it on all sides, making Kilchurn one of the top Scottish castles to be photographed. Sir Colin Campbell, first Lord of Glenorchy, built Kilchurn in 1450 as a strategic junction between the western highlands and the lowlands. As a government outpost during the Jacobite Rebellions of 1715 and 1745, Kilchurn fell into ruin by 1740 when the clan left for Perthshire to pursue commercial interests. We'll admire the views to Kilchurn from the viewpoint.

A former military road lies along the valley floor, built by General Wade to assist military control of the Highlands after the Jacobite Uprisings. A new road runs above it, as well as an imposing range of mountains, including The Cobbler, a favorite of mountaineers. The scenery is beautiful and the history is intriguing, so we'll stop here to enjoy the views.

Inveraray is the ancestral seat of the Dukes of Argyll and Clan Campbell chiefs. Argyll Castle is still home to the 13th Duke of Argyll Torquhil Campbell. Myths and legends surround Inveraray Castle. During your visit, you will learn about the Clan Campbell's role in Argyll's history. Please note Inveraray Castle is closed Tuesday & Wednesday.

The town was a 'planned town' at the time, which was unique for the period. Inveraray is a unique spot because of its whitewashed Georgian architecture, sleepy lochside location, and delicious whisky shop. The old jail is an interesting tourist attraction in Inveraray, and the moored Clyde puffer ship, Vital Spark, is a local landmark.

of Falloch, a 10 meter waterfall that, when at its peak, creates an impressive sight (and sound). An excerpt from Dorothy Wordsworth's diary from her famous 1803 visit to Scotland is featured in the 'Woven Sound' art installation.
