This is a Tour that you cannot miss out on when you are up in the Highlands. The road trip alone is filled with jaw dropping views that would make you want to stop at every point. Our selection will ensure you get to see the best of the best. The Isle of Skye is as magical as it can get.

Please be aware that it is not feasible to visit all the interesting places of Skye in a day. To make the most of your visit, we offer two distinct Options, focusing on either the North-East (see Tour Detail item 6) or the South-West (see Tour Detail item 7) of the island. This allows for a more in-depth and enjoyable experience within the available time. Whichever Option you choose will have the added time of the other option on it.

Our Itinerary can change at any time due to unforeseen situations like Castle private events, Operating hours of Exhibition Centres, Distilleries, etc. Rest assured that we can take you to other equally amazing alternative Attraction.

What To Expect

Our first stop is in the mountain pass of Glenshiel. A historic battle was fought here, not as you might expect between warring Highland Clans but between the British Red Coats and the Spanish who were in support of the Jacobite Rising of 1719. Today, it's one of the most beautiful mountain passes in Scotland.

Located at the intersection of 3 sea lochs on a small tidal island is the most photographed castle in Scotland. It's interiors are as captivating as it is seen from outside. The castle is a popular location for films, TV, advertisements, fashion shoots and music videos.

    Great all-day trip to the Isle of Skye with John. His stories and knowledge of history kept us entertained all day. John knows the island so well, we felt lucky to be taken to beautiful spots and to have him do the driving!

    This was the best day of our Scotland vacation. John is a 5 star tour guide who builds the itinerary around what you want. He is a safe driver, hysterical, knows everything about Scottish history and is caring. Thank you, John, for making our vacation so special!

    We had the pleasure of touring the Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Skye with John, and it was nothing short of unforgettable. While the breathtaking scenery speaks for itself, it was John who truly made the experience extraordinary. Dressed in traditional Highland kilt and radiating warm Highland hospitality, he gave us a fully immersive cultural journey that felt both personal and authentic. The landscapes we passed through were indescribable—photos simply can’t capture the raw beauty and dramatic history etched into every glen and mountain. John brought centuries of stories to life, weaving together tales of ancient clans, fierce battles, and enduring legends that gave the terrain a haunting and mesmerizing depth. Our journey out to the Isle of Skye took us through stunning highland passes and out to The Quiraing, where the landscape feels like something out of a dream. This was more than just a tour—it was an experience we’ll be talking about for years. We’ll absolutely be back. Five stars without hesitation. Slàinte mhath!

    11/10 experience with John on our Isle of Skye tour. This is definitely the way to go if you’re wanting to see Isle of Skye, especially as a day trip from Inverness. We were able to customize our day & see everything we wanted to see & hike. 100% worth it not to have to worry about driving. John knew all the best places to stop, & the best places for the most beautiful & memorable photos. The car was clean & comfortable. John was kind, considerate, & hilarious; we were laughing the entire time! John is from the highlands and was a wealth of knowledge; a huge plus because we love history! My mom, aunt & I will remember this day with wonderful memories! Thank you so much!
