Then visit Inverness – the capital of the Highlands, walk along the banks of the River Ness, and enjoy lunch. Take photos of Inverness town while walking tour of the city center.

Inverness Castle sits on a cliff overlooking the River Ness in Inverness, Scotland. The red sandstone structure, displaying an early castellated style, is the work of a few nineteenth-century architects. William Burn (1789-1870) designed the Sheriff Court, Joseph Mitchell (1803-1883) the bastioned enclosing walls, and Thomas Brown II (1806-c.72) the District Court, originally built as a prison. It is built on the site of an 11th-century defensive structure. Today it houses Inverness Sheriff Court. There has been a castle on this site for many centuries. In April 2017 the north tower of the castle was opened to the public as a viewpoint. At present, only the castle grounds and the north tower are open to the public. The remainder of the castle is not open to the public.

Then move on to the last stop of the tour – a visit to Glen Ord Distillery the home of Singleton for some whisky tasting. The Ord distillery dates back to 1838 it is the only single malt distillery on the Black Isle. They produce a 12-year-old, 15-year-old, and 18-year-old single malt that's available for export only to Southeast Asia. After whisky tasting, you’ll return to Invergordon to your Cruise ship.
