What To Expect

Dunrobin Castle and Gardens

Dunrobin Castle is a stately home in Sutherland, in the Highland area of Scotland, as well as the family seat of the Earl of Sutherland, Chief of the Clan Sutherland. The décor inside the castle is truly outstanding. Their museum displays a vast collection of the trophy heads of animals shot by family members on safari, ethnographic items from around the world and an important collection of archaeological artefacts. The museum retains its Victorian-Edwardian arrangement and is housed in an 18th-century summerhouse adjoining the formal gardens. The garden also hosts a live Falcon show twice a day.

Dornoch Cathedral

Dornoch Cathedral built in 1224 is a medieval parish church serving the small town of Dornoch. As a congregation of the Church of Scotland, which is Presbyterian, the church is not the seat of a bishop but retains the name due to being, historically, the seat of the Bishop of Caithness. The cathedral’s churchyard is adjoined by Dornoch Castle, the somewhat reconstructed remains of the medieval palace of the bishops of Caithness. It was formerly a Catholic Cathedral.

I cannot say enough good things about Highland Guided Tours and the Northern Scotland tour we just did. This is a small company that takes great pride in the service they provide. My wife and I were picked up in a Range Rover for an over eight hour tour visiting Dornoch with its cathedral and the beautiful town. Our guide, Johnny, was extremely knowledgeable about the sites and history of the region. We were on a knowledge fest from the moment we stepped into his car. After Dornoch, we visited Donrobin castle for a complete tour and falconry show. After a quick lunch, we were off to Black Rock Gorge where a Harry Potter movie was filmed. But, the tour also included several photo stops along the way including Millionaire’s view. We had a clear, bright, albeit cold day. Snacks and whisky tasting along the way were provided. We skipped the stop at the Glenmorangie distillery as this is a brand well known to me and we were eager to get back to our ship. We were never rushed and everything was well planned. I cannot urge anyone visiting Invergordon/Inverness more than to look up this small but excellent company on Viator. You will not be disappointed.
Wunderschön
