Lord of the Glens

At less than 150 feet in length, Lord of the Glens was designed to transit the network of locks and canals that cut through the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Every cruise on board Lord of the Glens journeys along the hauntingly beautiful Caledonian Canal, known as the Royal Route, following its endorsement by Queen Victoria in 1873. The canal transports guests serenely from Inverness to Fort William, and with only 50 guests on board, the emphasis is not on speed, but on style, while the relaxed and cozy atmosphere harks back to tailor-made travel of the old-fashioned variety.
