01
London – Gretna Green – Glasgow (Distance: 650 Kms)
This morning, board your coach and set off from London towards Gretna Green. The coach will make various stops along the M1 and M6 corridors for pick-ups. As we cover a significant distance en route to Scotland, ensure you bring your travel essentials and entertainment for the journey.
In the afternoon, we'll stop at Gretna Green, famous for being the UK's most iconic wedding destination and home to the historic Iron Forgeries. This is a great opportunity to purchase traditional shortbread, which your tour manager can arrange at a reasonable price. Please note that only continental and English food is available here, and there are no fast-food outlets on-site, so plan accordingly.
After lunch, we continue our journey north, arriving in Glasgow by early evening. We'll head straight to the majestic Glasgow Cathedral, one of Scotland’s finest medieval structures and the only one on the mainland to survive the Reformation intact.
In the evening, enjoy a delicious Indian dinner before checking into your hotel for a three-night stay. Rest up for the adventures that await! (D)
