Day 5 - Dundee to Edinburgh - Farewell Breakfast After breakfast, the train will head over Tay Bridge which will take you through the former Kingdom of Fife. Step off the train at Waverley Station in Edinburgh at which point your whisky ambassador will accompany you to The Scotch Malt Whisky Society’s headquarters. Here you will end your journey of Scottish culture and whisky immersion. Destination Information Boat of Garten Boat of Garten is a small village ideally located on the banks of the River Spey, right on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park. The village directly owes its existence, and name, to the railway. Cairngorms National Park incorporates the largest mountainscape in the United Kingdom, as important as a quarter of Scotland's native woodland. The River Spey is renowned for being a top fishing spot. Carrbridge Carrbridge is a village in Badenoch and Strathspey, Highland, Scotland. It is about 10 km north of Aviemore, and is part of the Cairngorms National Park. The village was an early centre for skiing in Scotland, and the A9 road passes close by, though before the 1980s bypass was constructed it ran straight through the village. Carrbridge itself is served by Carrbridge railway station on the Highland Main Line. Carrbridge's most famous landmark is the old bridge, built in 1707, from which the village is named. This was severely damaged in the "muckle spate" of 1829 which left it in the condition we see today. Sadly it is now unstable and is recommended only to be viewed from afar. Dundee Once heavily industrialized, Dundee is now developing exciting commercial, cultural, artistic, and scientific dimensions to take it forward into the 21st century. The city centre is a shoppers' paradise with the Murraygate, Wellgate and the magnificent glass- fronted Overgate shopping centers housing major department stores and retailers to suit all interests. Look out for City Quay, on the Dundee waterfront, where factory outlets aim to guarantee designer labels at low prices. The city's burgeoning cultural quarter is home to highly regarded Dundee Rep Theatre and Dundee Contemporary Arts centre while elsewhere visitors can enjoy an impressive range of galleries and museums covering a wealth of subjects. Even before its Victorian heyday, Dundee was an important centre and the city proudly remembers its long sea-faring and industrial heritage with the textile heritage centre at Verdant Works, Europe's Top Industrial Museum in 1999 while just across the city centre, on the bank of the River Tay, Captain Scott's famous Antarctic expedition ship RRS 'Discover' is berthed at the award-winning Discovery Point Visitor Centre. The Belmond Royal Scotsman: Scotch Malt Whisky Trail(© www.palacetours.com) 2/10 Dunkeld First capital of Scotland, Dunkeld sits on the banks of the River Tay amongst the forests of Perthshire. Dunkeld was proclaimed the first ecclesiastical capital of Scotland by Scotland's first king, Kenneth MacAlpin. The majestic ruin of the cathedral dominates the town. The Atholl Memorial fountain was erected in 1866 by public subscription in memory of the 6th Duke of Atholl. From here Cathedral Street leads to Dunkeld Cathedral, standing idyllically amidst lawns that sweep down to the River Tay. Today part ruin and part parish church, the cathedral features the tomb of the notorious 'Wolf of Badenoch'. The brightly colored 'little houses' of Dunkeld were built in the early 1700s. A walk along Atholl Street's variety of specialist shops will prove fascinating. A riverside path provides excellent views of Thomas Telford's Dunkeld Bridge. Edinburgh As the capital city of Scotland, Edinburgh is a dynamic city offering two distinct sides: the medieval Old Town, where visitors can enjoy the well maintained architecture, and the New Town, offering classical Georgian architecture. Today, Edinburgh has grown into a major cultural centre, full of activities and events. The city's Castle proudly dominates the Scottish capital. There are one thousand years of history sitting on the top of the famous rock. Discover Princes Street, Scotland's greatest thoroughfare, where locals and visitors can enjoy numerous shops, restaurants and most of all, the spectacular panorama of the Old Town and the stately castle. Keith Located in Moray on the Speyside Whisky Trail, Keith is an agricultural town situated on the River Isla, which came into existence in the 8th century. The town is today an important stop on the Speyide Malt Whisky Trail, with the Strathisla Distillery as its main attraction. Dating from 1786, Strathisla Distillery is the oldest working distillery in Scotland. As part of the Scottish heritage, the distillery activity is still a landmark of the city, and Keith and its near area offer four distilleries to visit. The town is made of two parts: the "Old Keith" which lies on the west side of the river and the "New Keith" on the east bank of the River Isla.
