| WINTER COACH TOURS 2008 |
3rd Jan - 20th Jan |
- The Shores of Argyll
- Inveraray & Loch Lomond
- A day of leisure in Oban
- Loch Leven, Glen Coe and Treasures of the Earth (opt) (on 5 day holidays there is one less excursion)
These five and six day winter and spring breaks start immediately after New Year and offer you a 'home from home' break with roaring coal fires, great food and fellowship. It is a time of year for old friends to gather, enjoy the music and entertainment and have the odd dram. Every day you can enjoy the countryside, roaming to places of great social and historical interest, such as Oban, the Loch Lomond area, the shores of Argyll and Glen Coe. The excursions are designed for shorter days so you leave at 10.00am and return at 4.00pm, most relaxing and quite outstanding value for money. Each tour has daily excursions one of which, Glen Coe, is optional.
Highland Night, Fancy Dress, Candlelit Dinner.

The Best of Scotland tour
is a more compact and shorter six day, five night holiday. I
have packed in amazing value on this scenic extravaganza. The
excursions take in the stunning shores of Argyll, the delights
of Inveraray and Loch Lomond and include a day of leisure in
the bustling port of Oban. For the optional day we go north by
Loch Leven, through Glen Coe and on to Fort William. All this
together with every comfort in the hotel, entertainment,
dinner, bed and breakfast nightly. You will always remember
this holiday.

1st November - 19th December |
- The Shores of Argyll
- Inveraray & Loch Lomond
- A day of leisure in Oban
- Loch Leven, Glen Coe and Treasures of the Earth (opt)
These tours are the highlight of our year as well as the people who come to enjoy them. They are off the coach, dine, and seem to hit the floor dancing and enjoying themselves. It is a great time for groups of friends to come together and enjoy the best Scotland has to offer. The day trips are shorter and suit the season. Great great days out, a roaring fire to come back to, a warm hotel, dinner, fellowship, good entertainment and the odd wee drammie. Life doesn't get better than this at any price. We celebrate Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day and all great fun. Don't forget to bring your fancy dress costumes!
