We depart Edinburgh in the morning and make our way to the majestic Kelpies, the world’s largest equine sculptures, dedicated to horse-powered heritage across Scotland.
We venture further into the Highlands, where you have the option to embark on an immersive tour of one of Scotland’s renowned whisky distilleries and sample the 'water of life’. Alternatively, head out to explore the charming market town of Crieff with its delightful local shops and cosy cafés. After passing through the stunning Sma’ Glen, a valley of ancient myths in the Scottish Lowlands, we explore The Hermitage forest in the heart of Perthshire to take a leisurely woodland walk amid captivating rivers and waterfalls.
