Leaving Glasgow we travel north-east to Stirling, where our first stop is the Wallace Monument*; a towering stone testimonial to the Scottish legend William Wallace.

We continue our journey through the pretty countryside of Perthshire to our next stop in Crieff, where we visit The Famous Grouse Experience* at Scotland's oldest distillery, Glenturret Distillery, for a whisky tour. Learn about the traditional whisky-making process, see how you measure up to the world's largest bottle of whisky and sample some of 'The Water of Life' itself at the fantastic Taste Experience bar. Timberbush Tours customers can also enjoy an exclusive tasting of the Black Grouse Alpha Edition; a rich, smoky blend available only at Glenturret Distillery. Enjoy a range of tasty lunch options in the Glenturret Cafe or take a stroll in the distillery grounds.

In the afternoon we travel west past beautiful Loch Earn and down through Strathyre to Kilmahog Woollen Mill for the chance to meet Hamish the Highland cow. We then continue on through the Trossachs - Scotland's first national park, known as 'the Highlands in miniature' for its abundance of lochs, mountains and forests, where we'll discover the lands of legendary outlaw, Rob Roy MacGregor. We then make a brief refreshment stop in the pretty town of Aberfoyle, before returning to Glasgow.
