About This Deal

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Achnasheen, Achnasheen, Ross and Cromarty, Scottish Highlands, Scotland

We will have our first stop of the day in the village of Achnasheen.
Here you will have a few minutes to stretch your legs, use the facilities and enjoy the 360 degree mountain views from the bridge at the historic railway station where we stop.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Kyleakin, Kyleakin, Isle of Skye, The Hebrides, Scotland

After crossing over the Skye Bridge onto the island we will stop in the former fishing village of Kyleakin. Here you can enjoy great views of the bridge, Eilean Ban Lighthouse and the legendary Castle Moil. If you wish you can take a scenic walk up to a vantage point overlooking the castle or, if you are ready for a coffee, there is a local cafe here serving drinks and snacks.

Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Portree, Portree, Isle of Skye, The Hebrides, Scotland

Upon arrival in Portree your guide will point you in the direction of the harbour viewpoint; from here you can admire the pretty pastel-coloured houses that the town is famous for.
With its quirky shops, cute cafes, picturesque location and interesting sights you will certainly find plenty to occupy you during our 45 minute stop here.
If you have not pre-ordered a packed lunch from us at the start of the day this will be your opportunity to purchase food to-go.

Duration: 40 minutes

Stop At: The Old Man of Storr, Scotland

A brief photo stop at the Storr Lochs viewpoint gives you a chance to admire the unique rock formation of the Old Man of Storr. This 50 metre high pinnacle juts out from the awesome Trotternish Ridge, an area which will be widely recognised from blockbuster films including Ronin 47, Macbeth, Snow White & The Huntsman, Prometheus and The BFG.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Kilt Rock, Scotland

Kilt Rock is an exposed sea cliff which resembles the traditional Highland kilt, and which never fails to impress our guests. It also boasts a waterfall which cascades 60ft (180m) into the Sound of Raasay below - a truly unique sight, and particularly so when the wind blows the waterfall back up the cliff!

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Quiraing Viewfield Road, Portree IV51 9ES Scotland

A visit to Skye just would not be complete without visiting the Quiraing. On a clear day you will be able to enjoy views of the Outer Hebrides and the Scottish mainland, framed by pinnacles, cliffs and great buttresses. However, it is on a windy and wet day that you will really be able to appreciate the supernatural power of this place, as you watch the clouds swirl around you, and your spine starts to tingle.
You will have around 30 minutes here - plenty of time to go for a short hike and find a peaceful stop to to truly enjoy Skye's magic.

Duration: 35 minutes

Pass By: Trotternish Ridge, Scotland

Dramatic coastal and mountain views abound on the Trotternish Peninsula and you will be able to enjoy these views from a completely different angle as we journey back down the coast.

Stop At: Sligachan, Sligachan, Isle of Skye, The Hebrides, Scotland

At Sligachan we are welcomed by awesome views of the Red and Black Cuillins. Here there is the opportunity to go on an off-the-beaten-track hike over a rough riverside path to a picturesque spot, which we often have to ourselves. Alternatively, you are welcome to enjoy the scenery from the old stone bridge just a couple of minutes walk from the coach.
If a cosy pub is more your thing then this is the perfect location to sample a dram or two from the selection of over 400 in Seumas' Bar, or enjoy an ale, which is brewed in the adjacent Cuillin Brewery.

Duration: 40 minutes

Stop At: Eilean Donan Castle, Kyle of Lochalsh IV40 8DX Scotland

After we cross back over the Skye Bridge to the mainland we will embark on a different route back to Inverness, with the next stop being the iconic Eilean Donan Castle. This castle is instantly recognisable the world-over as it has featured in many films and innumerable Scottish souvenirs! We will stop at our favourite vantage point here to enable you to take some photos, and to enjoy views of the castle at the end of the day, when it is closed and therefore much quieter.
Please note that there will NOT be an opportunity to visit the castle.

Duration: 20 minutes

Pass By: Loch Ness, Scotland

Towards the end of our epic journey we travel along the northern shores of the legendary Loch Ness. Here, Nessie enthusiasts can keep an eye out for the monster, while the rest of us soak up the great views across the loch.

Stop At: Urquhart Castle, A82 Road, Drumnadrochit IV63 6XJ Scotland

Our final stop is at Urquhart Castle, where we will have 10 minutes to view the loch-side ruins from the road above - a perfect WOW view to end a perfect WOW day!
Please note that you will NOT be able to go into the castle.

Duration: 10 minutes
