Holiday Highlights
• Visit to wonderful Balmoral Castle, with a new exhibition to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee • Explore beautiful Ballindaloch Castle and grounds • Enjoy the scenery of the Spey Valley • Travel into Whisky Country and visit the interesting Speyside Cooperage

Braemar

At the heart of beautiful Royal Deeside, the lovely village of Braemar awaits. This is the UK's highest and most mountainous parish, surrounded by spectacular scenery and on the doorstep of unique attractions, including Balmoral Estate, the Scottish home of the British Royal Family.

Included Excursions


Full Day:
Sit back and relax today as we enjoy a wonderful journey into Scotland's Whisky Country. We visit fascinating Speyside Cooperage, the only remaining working cooperage in Britain, for an insight into the ancient art of whisky cask making. We continue on to Ballindalloch, one of Scotland's most beautiful and renowned castles. Affectionately known as the 'Pearl of the North', this much loved family home has a stunning location at the heart of Speyside, surrounded by majestic hills, and has been continuously lived in by the Macpherson-Grants family since 1546

Full Day: We head westwards into Royal Deeside, home to some of Scotland's finest scenery, to visit the bustling city of Aberdeen. Known as the 'Granite City', due to the abundance of striking granite architecture, Aberdeen has a rich and inspiring heritage. Admire the sparkling buildings, visit one of the many attractions, including the Aberdeen Maritime Museum, and take a leisurely stroll through the award-winning Duthie Park Winter Gardens, Europe's largest indoor garden collection.

Half Day: A real holiday highlight is in store, as we visit stunning Balmoral Castle* and Estate, set in the shadows of majestic Lochnager. Purchased by Queen Victoria in 1848, and described by her as 'my dear paradise in the Highlands', Balmoral has been the Scottish home of the British Royal Family ever since. Enjoy a fascinating audio guided tour, with an insight into the workings of the Estate, stories of the most famous residents and visitors, and bringing to life such characters as Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. To celebrate Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee in 2012, Balmoral Estate will be showcasing a new exhibition.

* A trip to Crathes Castle replaces Balmoral when the Queen is in residence.
