What To Expect
Loch Ness
Our first stop will be overlooking the magnificent Loch Ness and the ruins of Urquhart Castle. We will stop here for about 10 - 15 mins for some photos and to learn about some of the amazing facts and legends that the loch is renowned for.
Corrimony Chambered Cairn
Before we reach Glen Affric, you will take a small detour to the 4,000 year old chambered burial cairn at Corrimony. This is one of the best preserved cairns on the mainland of Scotland, so a great opportunity to glimpse into the ancient past and learn about the culture and customs of these mysterious people.

5.00I would leave 10 stars if possible. This is a completely unique & incredible experience. Jamie took me on a highlands hike/walking tour of a lifetime. We drove on roads and took trails that are impossible to reach by anyone other than a true local, with a passion & knowledge of the geography. Jamie cares deeply for this land and is so well versed in the history. He takes his guests “where he would want to go and where he knows are the most special, hidden gems”. I was a solo traveler and couldn’t believe he catered the entire days journey just for me. It is something I won’t soon forget. FUN FACT - He and his partner also own a BNB! I highly recommend you look them up via “secret highlands” if you haven’t booked accommodations. Please support this family run business - they are incredible. Thanks, Jamie!! I hope to see you again some day in your beautiful country.
A faire ! A must to do!

5.00This tour is definately for people who likes to go off the beaten tracks, by going (with a small group) on places not crowded by tourists. Jamie is a great tour guide, dynamic, a nature lover who showed us with passion the area that he knows perfectly. What we saw was just amazing! To enjoy at maximum, I recommend to be able to speak English thanks again Jamie, our only regret is to not have taken a picture souvenir with you :) Olivier
Unforgettable and unbelievable trip

5.00If you don’t like standard tourist roads if you like something special this trip is great to explore the Highlands. You can trust me as its my third trip to the blessed Highlands and I’m sure it’s not last. We spent day with fantastic guide, smart and kind man Jamie who knows a lot about Scotland. Glen Affric is unique and stunning place with breathtaking views. I’m in love with Plodda Falls and forest. We will keep great memories about this trip and day with Jamie!
A Grand Day Out!
