What To Expect
Loch Ness Region
Your fantastic day out with Tony starts with a scenic journey down the East side of Loch Ness. You will stop and be told the true story of St. Columba and the very first documented eye witness report on a large water beast that attacked one of his followers trying to retrieve a boat. You will actually stand in an area of approximately 50m where St. Columba stood over 1,400 years ago.
Urquhart Castle
After boarding your vehicle it's off to Urquhart Castle where you will have a great photo opportunity whilst Tony regales you with the history of the Fraser's and the Grant Clans and how they changed sides during every Jacobite Rebellion from the late 1600's until the mid 1700's.

How did we get so lucky?!...

5.00How did we get so lucky?! We have taken many tours over the years. This was one of the best! Tony is obviously very devoted to his beloved Scottish Highlands. He is a fountain of information regarding Scottish history and the Highlands. His military service makes him the ideal guide for the Culloden battlefield part of the tour. We finished the tour at 6 PM rather than the scheduled 5 PM because of his desire to give us the full measure of his knowledge and experience. If you want to see the sights around Inverness, this is the tour for you.
