Day 1 Travel north for overnight stop in the Dumfries area.
Day2 Onward journey to Gairloch, your base for 4 nights.
Day 3 A short hop this morning with a local operator so your driver can have a rest day, to Inverewe Gardens. A garden like no other with amazing species that simply shouldn’t grow there! Lose yourself in this lush setting before exploring Inverewe House, now an interactive museum. The remainder of the day is at leisure in the pretty harbour town of Gairloch.
Day 4 Today is an opportunity to sample part of the North Coast 500 route. See the tiny sheep-inhabited Gruinard Island, with a grim past, to Little Loch Broom and fantastic views of the Loch and An Tellach, the highest mountain in the area. Heading on, passing the magnificent Corrieshalloch Gorge, known for its Victorian suspension bridge, and Falls of Measach before arriving in Ullapool. A village wrapped in stunning scenery, we include admission to the town museum. Take time to wander here before delving into the local shops.
Day 5 A full day, exploring Wester Ross further. Head along Loch Maree, framed by the Slioch and Beinn Eighe mountain ranges, to Achnashee in the east of the region. Here, join the train for a scenic trip to the Kyle of Lochalsh with spectacular views and light glinting off the waters of the many lochs. Rejoining the coach, spend time in the small village of Plockton. A picturesque Highland village that sits on a sheltered bay with stunning views overlooking Loch Carron.
