EDINBURGH

& THE ROYAL EDINBURGH MILITARY TATTOO (FULL DAY) - Fondly known as "Auld Reekie", or "Old Smokey", you'll find one of Europe's most unique and memorable cities. Home to narrow, cobbled passageways, a variety of new and old buildings, fascinating museums and attractions galore. As dusk falls, it's time to don your tartan as we prepare for the highlight of this break - the sensational Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo, an unforgettable evening of music, ceremony, theatre, and dance!

PERTH

(FREE DAY) - Beautifully situated on the banks of the River Tay, the 'Fair City' of Perth was formerly Scotland's capital for five centuries. What was once a picturesque playground for kings and queens is now a cosmopolitan gem, offering a unique shopping experience amidst a historic atmosphere.

DUNDEE

(FULL DAY) - Scotland's sunniest city offers castles, museums, galleries, cafés with much more to explore. Why not choose to take in Broughty or Glamis Castle, St Paul's Cathedral or the Dundee Museum of Transport? Then, take a walk down the riverside and find the V&A Museum and the RRS Discovery, a three-mastered vessel that expanded the frontiers of Antarctic exploration in the early 1900s.

THE KELPIES

(ENROUTE) - Enjoy a short photo opportunity at The Kelpies on our way back. Located in Helix Park, these are the largest equine sculptures in the world! Created by artist Andy Scott, the works of art are modelled on real-life icons - Clydesdale horses Duke and Baron.
