Inverness to the North Private Tour
Discover the True Spirit of the Northern Highlands
What You Will Experience
Dunrobin Castle
Dunrobin Castle is the most northerly of Scotland’s great houses and the largest in the Northern Highlands, with 189 rooms. Dunrobin Castle is also one of Britain’s oldest continuously inhabited houses, dating back to the early 1300s, and has been home to the Earls and later, the Dukes of Sutherland.
Falls of Shin
The roads leading out from Lairg, north of Scotland, travel through glens, offering rugged and romantic landscapes surrounded by an array of native wildlife. Four miles south of the town is the Falls of Shin, one of the best places in Scotland to see salmon leaping during their upstream migration.
Glenmorangie Distillery
By the tranquil shores of the Dornoch Firth, lies the Glenmorangie Distillery where, accompanied by our expert guides, you will journey through all stages of our award-winning whisky creation, from mashing and fermenting to distilling and maturation.
Royal Burgh of Dornoch
The town is famed for its impressive cathedral. Founded in 1224, it was restored by the Countess of Sutherland in 1835, and again in the 20th century. Scotland’s top philanthropist, Andrew Carnegie, paid for some of its stained windows.
Million Dollar Viewpoint
Sitting on the edge of the Dornoch Firth, the small historic town of Dornoch boasts a tranquil location, stunning scenery and a sunny climate. It is blessed with a particularly sunny climate thanks to its sheltered position, and has miles of golden sand beaches.
