Little and Big HIGHLAND FLING BUNGEE, Killiecrankie

The scenery is large, as is the fun. See Little and Big on a Highland Safari in Perthshire when they spot (each other) and meet local wildlife. Autumn is a great time to catch a glimpse of red squirrels, see capercaillies and observe (and hear!) the red deer ruts. Or look out for the sight and sound of thousands of pink-footed geese landing as our winter visitors at Loch Leven Nature Reserve.
Little and Big in A FRUITFUL AFTERNOON
It’s literally rich picking for food and drink in Perthshire. Little and Big go fruit picking to sample some of Perthshire’s famed raspberries.

Little and Big in Glenturret Escapades
Little and Big visit Scotland’s oldest distillery, Glenturret, and enjoy the Famous Grouse Experience to discover the traditions of whisky making!
Perthshire is also home to the smallest whisky distillery, Edradour – just perfect for our character Little. Across the region, there are plenty more distilleries to discover which produce wonderful Highland whiskies. Slainte!
