What to expect

After an early start, you'll leave Inverness and will travel along the Great Glen Fault Line towards Loch Ness. Admire the lovely Castle Urquhart from afar and see if you can spot the Loch Ness monster!

After a short break in Invermoriston, you'll continue through the dramatic Highland scenery towards the west coast and Eilean Donan Castle. You can go inside ‘the most photographed castle in Scotland’ or simply enjoy the astounding views.

And now, it’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. It’s time to cross the sea onto the Isle of Skye. You'll travel up the island’s east coast through the stunning Red Cuillin Mountains to Sligachan, where there will be photo stops of the clear mountain waters.

Arriving in the town of Portree, you'll have some free time to grab a bite to eat at one of the many delightful local restaurants.

After you’ve filled your belly, you can explore some of the most famous scenery of the island at the Trotternish Peninsula. The Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock, and the Quiraing are all unforgettably beautiful.

Venture to Kyleakin for refreshments and a chance to view the dramatic ruin Castle Moil or the Skye Bridge and Eilean Ban, then make your way back to Inverness with more picturesque routes and scenery to admire.
