HIGHLIGHTS Download trip notes

St. Andrews: If you like golf, you’ll love St Andrews. But if you think it spoils a nice walk in the park, there’s also Swilcan Bridge.
Fort William: Heads up ‘Potterheads’. Keep your eyes peeled for the Hogwarts Express.
Loch Ness: Sit back, relax and cruise along the loch with your Contiki crew. But keep your eyes peeled and camera ready for mythical ‘Nessie’.
Stirling: Explore the sights of Stirling and get a selfie with the memorial to the iconic Scottish knight.
Blarney Castle: Your chance to kiss the Blarney Stone and get the ‘gift of the gab’. And to visit the medieval Irish castle.
Cliffs of Moher: These rugged, photogenic cliffs have been the star of many films, including a Harry Potter one.
Galway: Tread the cobbles of this well-loved Irish city with your new Contiki crew. See Lynch’s Castle, Eyre Square and all the best pubs.
Derry/Londonderry: One for the history fans. Take a look around Ireland’s only walled city, built in the 17th Century.
Giant's Causeway: Sure, rock formations may sound a bit dull on paper, but this quirky natural wonder has to be seen to be believed.
Belfast: Hang with a local guide to see all the landmarks and learn about the city’s checkered history.
