Fort William Solo Tour

Resort - Fort William

Overview

Fort William, the “Outdoor Capital of the UK”, is not only an important tourist centre but also a splendid location from which to explore the magnificent Western Highlands. It is situated at the southern end of the Great Glen, on the shores of Loch Linnhe, beneath towering Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain. For those who do not feel quite up to the ascent of Ben Nevis, nearby Aonach Mor offers Britain's only alpine cable car, rising over 2000 feet to the Snowgoose restaurant, from where there are spectacular views of the Great Glen. The surrounding countryside has some of Britain’s most spectacular and romantic scenery and its torrid history has produced over 30 battlefields in the Lochaber area alone. As a touring centre, Fort William is unrivalled and our splendid excursion programme makes the best of this with coverage of many of the area's most interesting places.

Itinerary

Day 1 - Outward Travel

Day 2 - Excursion to Oban

  • Our excursion takes us today along the Argyll Coastal Route to Oban. The route hugs the shoreline taking us over lochs and past densely wooded areas to reach Oban - the 'gateway to the isles'. This bustling harbour town has plenty of attractions from some of the best seafood in Scotland to a tiny whisky distillery and McCaig's Tower - high above the town and providing wonderful views of the islands that lay in the bay.

Day 3 - Alias Christmas Day

Day 4 - 'Boxing Day' with Glenfinnan

  • Travel along the Road to the Isles, taking in the spectacular scenery as we make our way to Glenfinnan. Admire the towering viaduct and poignant monument that is dedicated to the Jacobite Rising which overlooks Loch Sheil.
  • Our day starts with a relaxed breakfast.
  • We enjoy a short excursion (details below) this morning.
  • On return to the hotel, lunch is served, after which we are invited to take part in a quiz.
  • We enjoy a 3 course evening meal, followed by the judging of the Christmas Jumper competition.
  • The evening continues with bingo and socially-distanced games.
