The Loch Ness Centre
Drumnadrochit, United Kingdom, IV63 6TUFrom your place of stay in Inverness we will travel towards Loch Ness, with plenty of opportunities for photos at some of the most beautiful vantage points the loch has to offer.
From there we move towards the famous Urquhart Castle and its visitor centre. The castle is a truly romantic ruin, perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking the loch, and surrounded on all sides by waters over 600-feet deep, where the legendary Loch Ness Monster is said to make her home. Take your time wandering the historic ruins and learn more about its amazing history, before the tour picks up again, this time towards invermoriston and on to loch Cluanie

Loch Cluanie
Invergarry, United KingdomLoch Cluanie is a loch in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland at the south-east end of Glen Shiel. It is a reservoir, contained behind the Cluanie Dam, constructed by Mitchell Construction and completed in 1957 as part of the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board's Glenmoriston project to generate hydroelectricity. then on to Eilean Donan Castle

Eilean Donan Castle
Kyle of Lochalsh, United Kingdom, IV40 8DXEilean Donan Castle, near Dornie, is one of the most easily recognised castles in Scotland and probably appears on more calendars than any other. It is, without any exaggeration, a Scottish icon. It therefore comes as a surprise to discover that although the island has been fortified since at least the Iron Age, the castle you see today was only rebuilt from earlier ruins in the years between 1913 and 1932. and then on to Kyle of lochaish, before crossing the bridge to the isle of skye and the on to the Sligachan bridge
30 min drive 1 hour • Admission Ticket Not IncludedView Location4
Sligachan
Sligachan, United KingdomSligachan is a small settlement on Skye, Scotland, close to the Cuillin mountains and provides breath-taking views of the Black Cuillin mountains and the River Sligachan.
Legend has it that the beauty of Scáthach’s daughter and the tears of love she shed in the river, mean that anyone brave enough to dip their face in the water will be granted eternal beauty by the faeries. Whilst seeking eternal beauty at Sligachan Bridge isn’t exactly pleasant, it is nowhere near as punishing as Dorian Gray found it to be!
and then on to portree
15 min drive30 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location5
Portree
Portree, United KingdomThe village of Portree, situated on the east side of Skye overlooking a sheltered bay, is the capital of the island.
Portree is only about 200 years old and was created as a fishing village at the beginning of the 19th century by the then Lord MacDonald. The name Portree or Port Righ, King’s Port in Gaelic, (as on the road signs) is popularly thought to derive from a visit by King James V (of Scotland) in 1540 but the area around the harbour was called Portree or Portray long before the arrival of the king. Its name really comes from the Gaelic for Port on the Slope.
Further north along the road to Staffin is the Old Man of Storr - a very popular walk. Across the bay to the east, the Island of Raasay can be seen with its distinctive conical hill, Dun Caan.

12 Stormy Hill, Portree, United Kingdom, IV51 9DYYou can see the Lealt Falls following the short walk from the parking place. Just sit at the top of the cliff and enjoy the view.
Just a quick stop south of Staffin. A viewpoint allows a magnificent sight over the Mealt Falls and Kilt Rock. This is one of the top tourist locations on the Trotternish area.

Kilt Rock
, United Kingdom, IV51 9JE The 90 metre Kilt Rock on the Trotternish Peninsula does look strikingly similar to a pleated kilt. Its has vertical basalt columns that form the pleats and intruded sills of dolerite forming the pattern. From the cliff-top viewpoint you can also get a nice look at Mealt Falls, a waterfall that plummets 328 feet (100 m) over Kilt Rock to the rock-laden shoreline below. If you listen closely, you can hear the whistle made by the falls as the water crashes down. Similar to a bagpipe’s eerie tunes, this whistle becomes even more dramatic on a particularly windy day.
