About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, to the real Scottish Highlands — Loch Ness, Glencoe's Three Sisters, and the Kelpies. This is a private tour for your group only. Real stops include Loch Ness, Glencoe's genuine Three Sisters mountains, and the Kelpies.

A single day on this tour crosses hundreds of millions of years of Scottish geology. Loch Ness fills a ruler-straight trench carved along the Great Glen Fault, a line of weakness running more than 60 miles across the Highlands that effectively splits Scotland in two. Erosion along the shattered rock of the fault created the loch's extraordinary depth — up to around 230 metres — which gives it the largest water volume of any loch in the British Isles, holding more water than every lake in England and Wales combined.

Glencoe's landscape comes from a completely different, far older chapter: it sits inside the collapsed remains of an ancient volcanic caldera, where repeated eruptions caused the roof of a vast magma chamber to subside, leaving the dramatic rock buttresses known as the Three Sisters — Aonach Dubh, Geàrr Aonach and Beinn Fhada. Geologists studying Glencoe in the 20th century used it to first identify how caldera collapse actually happens in the rock record, making this valley genuinely significant to the science as well as the scenery.

The Kelpies bring the day back to the present: two 30-metre steel horse heads by sculptor Andy Scott, completed in 2013 near Falkirk, built in tribute to the real Clydesdale horses that once worked Scotland's canals. After a day spent among glaciers, faults and volcanic rock that formed over hundreds of millions of years, they're a reminder that Scotland's landscape has kept being reshaped — by nature, and more recently by people — right up to the present day.
