Overview

We leave behind the ‘Capital of the Highlands’, for a full-day adventure to the magical Isle of Skye. We drive along the world-famous Loch Ness - home of the elusive monster – and onwards through the mountains towards the west coast. Majestic mountains give way to vast sea lochs, once used by Vikings as an access route to our lands. We stop at the romantic Eilean Donan Castle with time for you to explore inside.

After crossing the Skye Bridge, learn about the island’s myths and legends, as well as the true tales of rival clans and a fugitive prince. Enjoy lunch in the main town of Portee and visit the colourful harbor. Explore the Isle of Skye’s stunning coastline, and marvel at the Old Man of Storr, Lealt Falls, and Kilt Rock. Take in the last of Skye’s otherworldly landscape as we drive through the Highlands back to Inverness.

We spent a great day with Alana. Prompt pick up, knowledgeable and fun facts throughout the day. Lots of interesting stops with plenty of breaks to get out and stretch your legs. She also provided great recommendations for restaurants and things to do Inverness! A+++

What a delightful experience to cover the beautiful landscape of Isle of Skye in one day. The guide, Duffey, was able to tell us all sorts of fun facts and stories about landmarks, rock formations, people, characters and much more. A truly fun and interesting experience worth every penny.
