Highlands Experience

During a one day trip organised by Isuk Tour, I had the chance to visit some wonderful places of Scotland. It was in November so it was cold even with the sun.

First, we stopped at Hermitage - a National Trust for Scotland - and we walked in the wood trying to take in photo the sunbeam through trees, from the Ossian's Hall.

Pitlochry

What is the interest to go to Scotland without tasting the whisky from its source? Of course we did it! Indeed, our next stop was the Blair Athol Distillery in Pitlochry. So we visited it and we discovered the way to produce this kind of alcohol (no photos allowed because of the professional confidentiality). Obviously, we tasted the whisky at the end. Yes it was 11:00 and so what? There is no specific time to sip a good whisky in Scotland!

Then we ate at Pitlochry, charming small city with view on the Highland hills. We made shopping in some gift shops in the main street. My favourite moment? When we took a hot chocolate in a welcoming café!

Finally we arrived at Queen's view, one of the most iconic panoramas in Scotland. These are not bullshits! What an amazing view on mountains and I think it's even better in summer. So we took photos and enjoyed the spectacular view.

This trip has been short but intense. It has left us good memories of Scotland landscapes. If I am you, I will run to go there!
