Taking the Scenic Route is a celebration of going places and doing things by car that you wouldn’t ordinarily be able to get to. Such as a Scottish Highland Safari. As actor and TV presenter Joe Swash discovered, driving off-road takes a bit of getting used to.
Along with Highland Safaris, we’re offering you and three friends the chance to have your own 4×4 driver for the day. To win, you simply follow @GreenFlagUK and retweet our ‘RT to win’ tweet. Whoever is successful in the prize draw will have the adventure of a lifetime by Land Rover across some of the most breathtakingly beautiful and inhospitable terrain in the country.
The experience will start with fully paid-for travel and transfers to the Fisher’s Hotel in Pitlochry. Following an overnight stay in the stylish and sumptuous hotel and a hearty breakfast, you’ll transfer to the Highland Safaris HQ in Aberfeldy, Perthshire. There you and your three guests will enjoy a full day of 4×4 driving with your very own kilted off-road driving expert.
This exclusive Safari has been designed to enable you to tailor a driving day to your own requirements. Take the wheel yourself and put your off-roading skills to the test under the guidance of your safari ranger, or take advantage of their local knowledge and create a tour suited to your own interests. Personalising the day with a greater focus on nature spotting or a walking element isn’t a problem.
Using a Land Rover similar to the one Joe Swash was driving, your safari ranger will help you explore nature at its most raw on a journey that could take you from valley floor to some of the most elevated areas in the UK.
It’s terrain that is completely inaccessible unless you have either a specialist 4×4 vehicle with a fully qualified off-road driver, or a helicopter. The benefit of travelling by 4×4 is that you can absorb the incredible scenery.
Touring private tracks traversing forests, mountains and moors that have remained largely unchanged for millennia, you will journey to an out-of-the-way area. There you could enjoy an easy paced wilderness walk that will enable you to get closer to nature.
Armed with the binoculars and telescope provided, you might see the majestic red deer, elusive mountain hare, soaring red eagle or the famous grouse. And talking of whisky, your day will include a picnic in a mountain bothy at 2,000 feet. Complete with a picnic of home-made soup, filled rolls, crisps, fruit, tea, coffee – all washed down with a dram of Dewars Malt Whisky.
Inspired by the day’s events, you’ll be able to relive your exploits over dinner for your second night at the Fisher’s Hotel. Breakfast the following day is included in the prize, as are transport and transfers home.

Interesting competition albeit badly targeted as you assume that your customers who have an email address are ALL foolish enough to be ‘tweeters’ despite most proving by sensibly being customers of Green Flag that they are not TWITS!
Pity!!
