Energetic and informative roadtrip

Our guide and driver Jack was A1. The coach we travelled in was clean and comfortable with a great playlist to capture the rhythm and vibe of Scotland. We visited picture perfect Lough Lomond, Glencoe and Loch Ness in a day of seasons - bring your umbrella. The rain added to the serenity of the Highlands and returned safely to Glasgow! Jack was witty, knowledgeable and passionately Caledonian!
