Inverness, United Kingdom

Tour Skye

Traveling from Inverness to the Isle of Skye for a full-day excursion featuring notable sites such as Portree and the Fairy Pools.



Depart from Inverness and proceed towards Loch Ness, the largest lake by volume in the British Isles and one of the deepest lakes among them. This legendary body of water is renowned globally for its enigmatic creature, the Loch Ness Monster. It also houses one of the most famous castles in Scotland, Urquhart Castle.

Afterward, visit the Talisker Single Malt Scotch Distillery located in Carbost. Proceed to the Visitor Centre (accessible during the tour), where guests can explore the distillery and, under favorable conditions, sample some of the high-quality whiskies crafted there.

Next, venture to the Isle of Skye and explore the charming village of Portree. Situated as the capital of Skye, this small harbor town offers a delightful afternoon break.

Make a brief stop at the majestic Eilean Donan Castle, perched on its own island and considered one of Scotland’s most photogenic castles. As you return to Inverness, your tour concludes.
