Embark on a 3-day guided tour of the Scottish Highlands and visit highlights, including Loch Ness and the Isle of Skye. Learn the history of this lush region from your guide and spend two nights in Inverness.

Day 1:
Leave the bustle of Edinburgh behind and head west to stop at the Kelpies, the world's largest equine sculptures. Continue north through Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park to discover beautiful Glencoe, the most famous valley in Scotland, and hear of its tragic history.

Drive north west to admire the breath-taking views at the spectacular Glenfinnan Viaduct. Stop for photos of the Nevis Range at the Commando Memorial before arriving at the Capital of the Highlands, where you'll stay for 2 nights.

We arrive at approximately 6 PM to our drop-off/meeting point at Inverness Cathedral on Ardross Street, IV3 5NN. (Accommodation not included, please contact us for recommendations.)

Day 2:

After breakfast, depart Inverness and drive across the Kessock Bridge to the Black Isle and marvel at the spectacular scenery of Achnasheen and Loch Carron. Arriving on the Isle of Skye, venture north to explore the highlights of the island. See sights such as the Cuillin Mountains, Trotternish Peninsula, Portree, the Old Man Storr, Kilt Rock and the famous Quiraing.

In late afternoon, stop for photographs of the most beautiful castle in Scotland, “Eilean Donan Castle.” Backdrop to many famous films, such as 'Highlander' and 'Made of Honor', this castle is another must-see iconic landmark! A scenic drive through stunning Glen Shiel follows, returning to Inverness to stay your final night at approximately 7:30 PM. The evening is free for you to do as you wish.

Day 3:

Depart Inverness and head to Loch Ness for an optional boat cruise. Discover the features, history, and lore of the beautiful area surrounding the loch. Head south to visit Culloden Battlefield, site of the last Jacobite Rising, then 'Clava Cairns', incredible 4,000-year-old, Bronze-Age standing stones.

Continue on to the Highland Folk Museum where we'll experience Highland life in the 17th century. See the buildings, the clothes and weapons, and how people lived 300 years ago. During the winter season, stop at Ruthven Barracks instead.

Then, stop in Pitlochry, where you can enjoy a relaxing stroll through the charming village before continuing the journey south. Cross over the famous Forth Bridges on the journey back to Edinburgh, arriving at approximately 6 PM.

Please note that due to weather and/or road conditions during the winter season the route may change at the driver/guide’s discretion. Arrival times are estimates and can vary on the day.**
