Our guests seem to agree but don't just take our word for it, book a tour and see for yourself why we are the number one tour company in Invergordon. Sit back and indulge in the panoramic views of the Scottish Highlands and Islandsas your local guide takes you on an unforgettable tour of this magical land they call home.

What to expect:

Duration: 8 hours

Dornoch Firth Viewpoint

B9176, Alness IV17 0XR, UK

The adventure begins as soon as you arrive at the end of the gangway where your guide will be waiting to welcome you to the Scottish Highlands. The tour begins with a drive through the town of Invergordon and along the coastal road to Alness, passed the world famous Dalmore Distillery before climbing in to the hills through Ardross to one of the best views in Scotland. (in our opinion)
OPTION: Millionaire's Viewpoint (as it's known to the locals) is the first stop and there will be plenty time to take pictures.

10 minutes

Falls of Shin

Achany Glen, , Lairg, IV27 4ET

OPTION: The tour descends in to the Glen through Bonar Bridge on your way to The Falls of Shin and the Salmon Leap. Atlantic Salmon can often be seen leaping the falls, making the final push toward their birthplace for the cycle to start all over again.

30 minutes

Dunrobin Castle and Gardens

Golspie, KW10 6SF

OPTION: Then it's a short drive to Dunrobin Castle & Gardens which is very popular with locals and it always goes down well with our guests. The falconry display is amazing - Andy (The Falconer) has been working with local birds for over 25 years and his knowledge and passion shine through. He's a very interesting character and many people say it's the best they've seen in the world. The castle looks like it is straight out of a fairy-tale and set in the Scottish Highlands it looks magnificent. Dunrobin also has a wonderfully unique museum and taxidermy collection.

Carn Liath Broch

Beside A9 road, Golspie

OPTION: Carn Liath is only a 2 minute drive north of Dunrobin Castle and is a fine example of a broch – a type of fortification found only in Scotland. It also offers great views of Dunrobin Castle.

10 minutes

Dornoch Cathedral

High Street, Dornoch, IV25 3SH

OPTION:The adventure then heads south through Golspie to the Royal Burgh of Dornoch, one of Scotland's most picturesque villages. It is home to a stunning golden sandy beach and a world class golf course but even without these things it just takes you to another time altogether. Highly, highly recommend!! The old Jail has been turned into a shop selling locally made, hand crafted gifts, jewellery and works of art, if you're looking for souvenirs. The Cathedral also draws lots of visitors with a collection of beautiful stained glass windows.
Dornoch is also a great place to stop for lunch with lots of options including a local bakery, a patisserie, a gallery, and our favourite the Royal Golf Hotel - Scottish Hospitality at its very best plus the food is really really good, so there's something to suit all tastes.

1 hour

Glenmorangie Distillery

on the A9, Ross-shire, Scottish Highlands, IV19 1PZ

OPTION: Last stop on the itinerary is often a tour and tasting at the world famous Glenmorangie Distillery but this is just an option, many people have no interest in distilleries.
