What to expect

Enjoy a real taste of the Highlands as you drive through the scenic Black Isle, spot dolphins at Moray Firth and do a spot of monster hunting at Loch Ness before wrapping up the day with a visit to a malt whisky distillery. It really is the Highlands in a nutshell.

Bid farewell to Inverness and set off to the first stop of the day, Drumnadrochit, which lies close to the banks of Loch Ness. You’ll discover more about the loch and its famous resident from your driver-guide so remember to keep your eyes peeled for Nessie!

Then it’s time to stop at Glen Ord Malt Whisky Distillery where you can take a behind-the-scenes tour followed by a tasting of Scotland’s national drink before heading off to Cromarty. Cromarty is a sleepy fishing village where you can step back in time and explore its quaint fishermen cottages, crow-stepped houses and grand sandstone mansions. Thanks to careful conseervation work, its character has been retained to this day!

Then you’ll travel through the picturesque villages to Moray Firth which is home to a community of 130 bottlenose dolphins and Chanonry Point is a popular vantage point from which to spot these amazing mammals.
