Private Scottish Highlands Experience Tour

Private tour of The Scottish Highlands starting in Inverness. This tour discovers, the true highlights of the Scottish Highlands, Lochs Castles and Battlefields - this tour has it all.

Your guide will meet you at your Inverness hotel at 9:00am and we will begin the journey through the Scottish Highlands. Our first location, Urquhart Castle. This is a beautiful location, perched on top of Loch Ness creating some picturesque views of Scotlands iconic Loch and home to Nessie. We will have time to explore the castle and lots of photo opportunities around Loch Ness on our journey towards the next location, Beauly Priory. This location is one of only 3 priories found in Scotland, founded in the early 1200's for monks of the Valliscaulian order. After our visit here we continue on to another historic sight, Culloden Battlefield, home to the last battle fought on mainland soil and where the Jacobite uprising came to an end. Our final stop of the day is Clava Cairns, this 40000 year old burial site has standing stones, burial cairns, and cup and ring marks, walking here is like stepping back in time.

Each private tour is conducted only with the group that booked, ensuring that your experience is fully personalised and catered to you. Your private guide will take the time to show some of the historical locations throughout this famous town.
