Glasgow, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs
In early August this year, Sarah from our UK department accompanied a large American Performing Arts group as the Event Manager. It was a busy itinerary packed full of exciting visits to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs.
The group stayed at the Marriott Hotel Glasgow Argyle Street, which was a great base to explore the city of Glasgow. From the hotel, it was a leisurely walk into the city centre or and close to the hop-on hop-off bus stop. This was an excellent hotel with well-appointed rooms that you would expect from a hotel of this standard. The friendly staff were on hand serving the locally produce food in the restaurant. Some of the group took advantage of the leisure facilities including a swim in the indoor pool.
Visits were made to the Kelpies, Stirling, the Edinburgh Tattoo, Falkirk Wheel, a cruise on Loch Lomond and a scenic drive through the Trossachs National Park. The group members were impressed with the beautiful scenery in the Trossachs – it was a bonus that the weather was glorious! On the last evening, the group ate at the Buchanan Arms Hotel in Drymen.
One of the Performing Arts group summarised the Edinburgh Tattoo as “absolutely gorgeous” – it was, without doubt, the highlight of the tour.
Spectacular Scottish scenery with history around every corner twinned with city centre experiences, Greatdays highly recommend this tour to your group.
