Departure Point

A 3 day tour to enjoy the stunning natural beauty and delights of one of Scotland's favourite islands - Skye.

Day 1

From Edinburgh we head west to Glasgow and then make our first stop at the picturesque conservation village of Luss, on the "Bonny, Bonny Banks" of Loch Lomond. Travelling north via Tyndrum we pass over the desolate expanse of Rannoch Moor, before enjoying time to walk and admire the dramatic valley of Glencoe, site of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald Clan.

After lunch in the Fort William area we stop for photos at Scotland's highest mountain, Ben Nevis, then pause to admire Glen Garry and the stunning 5 Sisters of Kintail mountain range. Our journey ends in the charming town of Portree, on the Island of Skye, where we check into our accommodation.

Day 2

After breakfast, we depart Portree for a full day's touring-options include a visit to Talisker distillery* and Dunvegan Castle* or a trip to Uig and a stop to visit Flora MacDonald's grave and the unique Black Houses. We continue our journey where we can view Duntulum Castle, take photos of Kilt Rock and perhaps enjoy a walk at the Lealt Falls. Our tour ends with the opportunity to admire the Old Man of Storr, before we return to Portree.

Day 3

We commence our descent via the much-admired Eilean Donan Castle*, backdrop for several movies including 'Highlander', then move on to the pretty loch-side village of Fort Augustus, with its spectacular views of Loch Ness, for lunch. Our journey south continues over Laggan and the Grampian Mountains with our last stop for refreshments in the Victorian resort town of Pitlochry, before our return to Edinburgh.If continuing to Glasgow, your guide will take you to Waverley Station for the 50-minute journey by train, courtesy of Timberbush.
