1 Day Skye Adventure and Eilean Donan Castle Tour from Inverness

The Isle of Skye is famed the world over for its dramatic mountain scenery and picturesque seascapes. On this wonderful tour we'll experience the very best of the Magical Isle. From Inverness we will make our way along the banks of Loch Ness. We will have a stop for photographs by the loch side - keep a careful look out, just in case you know who makes an appearance!

From Invermoriston we head westwards through Glen Moriston to Glen Shiel, where we will see the "Five Sisters" a range of five mountains that dominate the surrounding landscape. We'll make a photo-stop at Eilean Donan Castle, perched on its island at the head of Loch Duich. You will marvel at the views of Skye from the ramparts of this most picturesque of castles. Soon we will cross the road bridge "over the sea to Skye".

From the little villages and gentle scenery of the southern part of the island the views will change dramatically as the Cuillin Hills come into sight. Considered by many to be amongst the finest hills in Britain the Cuillins present a vista that is simply unforgettable. Set round its natural harbour the picturesque town of Portree is the island's largest community. The name of the town means the "King's Port" following a visit by King James V in 1540. Today the pretty painted houses which surround the harbour give Portree an old fashioned appeal. During our stop there will be time to explore the town and browse the interesting shops that surround Sumerled Square.

From Portree the Cuillin Hills guide us towards the Skye Bridge and the mainland. Our return to Inverness takes us through Glen Carron to the lonely village of Achnasheen. We will then travel through the Black Isle and over the Kessock Bridge into Inverness.
