Activity itinerary

Achnasheen (Pass by)

Travel through the serene landscapes of Achnasheen, where rolling hills and tranquil glens create a perfect prelude to the dramatic beauty of Loch Carron.

Skye Bridge

We stop at the Kyle of Lochalsh for morning coffee and a photograph opportunity of the famous Skye Bridge, with views of Skye’s Cuillin Mountain range providing a beautiful backdrop. Opened in 1995, this bridge has a remarkable history.

Black Cuillin (Pass by)

The Sligachan River flows majestically from the Black Cuillin Mountains, a truly magical location for your guide to introduce you to the local folklore of the island’s Fairies and Giants!

Portree

Enjoy lunch in the picturesque harbour town of Portree, the largest settlement on Skye. There are numerous cosy pubs, restaurants and bakeries for you to try seafood and other local dishes. Enjoy fish and chips by the harbour as the fishing boats deliver their latest catch!

Kilt Rock

A striking natural wonder on the Isle of Skye, Kilt Rock is a cliff formation that resembles the pleats of a tartan kilt. Towering over the sea, it’s complemented by the dramatic Mealt Waterfall, which plunges 60 metres into the ocean below. With its basalt columns and scenic backdrop, Kilt Rock is a must-see for nature lovers and photographers alike.

Trotternish Ridge (Pass by)

We explore the dramatic Trotternish Peninsula, with iconic rock formations which have made this area the perfect backdrop for recent films such as ‘BFG’, ‘Prometheus’ and ‘Stardust’.

Quiraing

A breathtaking landslip on Skye’s Trotternish Peninsula, the Quiraing is one of the best stops for an amazing picture with a panorama of jaw dropping scenery.

Eilean Donan Castle

Having explored Skye, we head back towards the mainland, stopping for photographs at the shores opposite Eilean Donan Castle, which is thought to be the most beautiful castle in Scotland! Built upon a rocky island at the head of three Sea Lochs (similar to Fjords), you will be impressed by this breathtaking Scottish landmark and the beautiful mountains and glistening waters that surround it.

Inverness Cathedral

You will arrive in Inverness at approximately 7:30PM at our city-centre drop off - Inverness Cathedral on Ardross Street, IV3 5NN. Please note that this can be impacted by traffic and other factors outwith our control.
