Your Itinerary
Eaglesham
As you leave Glasgow, you’ll be amazed at how quickly city life disappears and the rural countryside transpires before you.
On the way to Ayrshire, you’ll pass through Eaglesham Moore, an extremely picturesque part of Scotland where rolling hills meet the road.
Whitelee Windfarm Visitor Centre
Mixing the old with the new, your first stop will be Whitelee Wind Farm. You’ll get to see what was the largest on-shore turbine farm in Europe - which generates enough power for 300,000 homes! It’s very impressive to see these spectacular wind turbines up close.
Ayrshire
(Pass by)
As you head towards the coast, you’ll pass many delightful landscapes and views over the sea. Along the way, your guide will point out any places of interest and tell you stories of ancient times gone by.
It’s this scenery that inspired much of Robert Burns’ poetry and his love for the area.
Culzean Castle and Country Park
With its truly spectacular cliff-side location, Culzean Castle is truly as impressive as it sounds. The grounds are extensive, bursting with things to do. From deer parks to swan pools and a stunning, secluded beach, you could spend the entire day here.
The castle also has many apartments and rooms, one of which was gifted to President Eisenhower to use whenever he wanted.
Admission Not Included
Dunure Castle
As you drive along the coast to the next destination, you will get to see Dunure Castle. Another beautiful castle, with a fantastic cliff-side location, but this time you’ll see the silhouette of the ruined walls.
There is also a rather great (yet gruesome!) story from the 1500s, when Earl Gilbert was trying to seize the lands and roasted the Commentator of Crossraguel on a spit over a fire… if you like this kind of story, your guide will no doubt tell you more.
Or, if you’re an ‘Outlander’ fan, you might recognise Dunure Castle as the location where Claire and Jamie watch young Ian swim out to Silkies’ Island in Season 3.
Burns Cottage
The final location is all about the man himself: ‘Rabbie Burns’. Born and bred in Ayrshire, you will get to visit Burns’ family home and see the places that inspired his most famous poems and songs.
Once you’ve marvelled at his handwritten manuscripts and poured over the 5,000 artefacts, we’ll take you back to Glasgow through the most scenic views once more.
