Timberbush Tours - West Highland Lochs, Mountains & Castles
From Edinburgh you will travel west, passing the imposing Stirling Castle, high on its volcanic rock, and on to a visit at Doune Castle* (which featured in the cult movie ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’). From there journey into the Highlands, past Loch Lubnaig and up through impressive Glen Ogle, a steep glen that stretches for 7 miles, stopping nearby for lunch and beautiful views of the surrounding scenery. After lunch venture further into the Highlands, stopping to view one of the most photographed castles in Scotland, Kilchurn Castle, nestled on the banks of beautiful Loch Awe and stunningly framed by the surrounding mountains. You will then journey to Inveraray, a small quaint town built in the mid-18th century on the shore of Loch Fyne. Here we have time to explore the town and pick up some Highland souvenirs or pay an optional visit to Inveraray Castle*, the historic home of the Duke of Argyll, chief of the Clan Campbell, which is set in large beautiful gardens overlooking Loch Fyne. You then start your homeward journey, driving over the Arrochar Alps, an attractive range of mountains, with a brief pause near the top of the Rest and Be Thankful Pass.

Italica La mitad Excursión de un día desde Sevilla
Las ruinas romanas de la ciudad con mosaicos notables y Anfiteatro de Itálica se encuentran a menos de 9 kilómetros al norte de la ciudad, a las afueras de la localidad de Santiponce. En el sitio adyacente también hay un teatro romano muy bien conservado en Santiponce. Ambos están señalizado desde la carretera principal. Itálica fue la cuna de tres emperadores y uno de los asentamientos romanos más tempranos en España fundada en 206 aC. Se subió a una considerable importancia militar en la 3 ª siglos segundo y AD. A lo largo de la Edad Media, las ruinas fueron utilizados como una fuente de piedra para el Sevilla, pero afortunadamente el anfiteatro ha sobrevivido, aunque en estos días se desmorona peligrosamente. Más allá de esto son unos veinte mosaicos, incluyendo un excelente piso de color con los pájaros, Neptuno y las estaciones. Incluye: Traslado, guía entrada a Itálica y Monasterio de San Isidoro del Campo, y vaso de vino típico. Excursión sujeta a disponibilidad.
