Discovering Loch Lomond by kayak is one of the best things to do in Scotland!
After a short introduction from local guides, you’ll set off on a one-hour paddle across the loch’s calm waters, taking in the peaceful surroundings and breathtaking scenery at your own pace.

This activity fits seamlessly into your itinerary, leaving you plenty of time to explore other iconic Scottish sites throughout the rest of your day.

Hop aboard for a morning seal-spotting adventure on Loch Carron!
Guided by a local expert and captain, you’ll set out on a one-hour boat trip to explore the area’s rich wildlife. Keep an eye out for seals, otters, and seabirds, all while enjoying spectacular views of the surrounding Scottish mountains.

This activity fits perfectly into your Scotland itinerary, leaving you plenty of time to continue exploring other highlights throughout the day.

Step into the world of the Red Deer hinds, help feed the main herd, and enjoy an unforgettable 1-hour experience.

Travel across Scotland in a spacious SUV (Kia Sportage or similar model) perfectly suited for all Highland roads.

Your vehicle comes equipped with a rooftop tent and all the camping gear you’ll need. Everything is provided to ensure you have an amazing stay in Scotland!

For more information about the equipment and damage insurance, check the ‘practical information’ section. Here are the dimensions of the double mattress: 203 x 130 cm.

Looking for a bit more comfort on the road? This awning can be set up in about 5 minutes and easily slides onto your rooftop tent. Handy for some shade on sunny days, but in Scotland it’s also just nice to have when the occasional shower passes by. Ideal for cooking outside, eating, or simply relaxing outdoors a little longer.

We’ve planned an itinerary for you, but if you want flexibility to deviate from the route, you can choose the “unlimited mileage” option, when booking, for a fixed price per vehicle.

If you decide not to take this option, please note that any extra kilometers will be charged at a fixed rate per kilometer at the end of your trip.

Your booking includes 1 driver* by default. Want to share the driving during your trip? Simply add an extra driver to your booking. No worries, you can also add this option later.

*Please note: every driver must be at least 25 years old and hold a valid driver’s license for at least 2 years.

Prefer driving an automatic? No problem! You can add this option to your booking for an additional fee.

Please note: only a limited number of automatics are available per departure. If you definitely want to drive an automatic, make sure to book it in time.

Important: in rare cases, only a manual car may be available. In that situation, the surcharge will of course be refunded, but make sure you’re also able to drive a manual vehicle.

s so much beauty to admire, but if we want to be able to do that in the future, we must protect it today. That is why we make extra efforts to reduce the impact of our trips, and in the booking form, you can contribute in a reliable way to a climate project from Greentripper, which brings the CO2 emissions of your transport back into balance. By contributing to their certified project in Uganda, you help distribute more efficient cookstoves that significantly reduce fuel consumption. This initiative of 11 local projects protects vulnerable forests from deforestation, improves the health of families through better indoor air quality, and stimulates the local economy by creating employment. The project is Gold Standard certified, guaranteeing the highest international standards for environmental integrity. If you choose to contribute to the emissions of your transport, Travelbase will contribute extra for the local emissions. After your trip, you will receive an official carbon credit certificate.
