Full description
Travel from Inverness to Skye on a day tour exploring the countryside and seeing the main sights. Your day starts with a bit of monster spotting as you drive along the shore of Loch Ness. Stop at the little village of Invermoriston, where you can take in the views and see a delightful ruined bridge. Your journey winds through Glen Moriston and Glen Shiel and on past the 5 Sisters, a stunning range of mountains that dominates the surrounding landscape. Continue to Eilean Donan Castle, one of Scotland’s most picturesque castles, perched on its own island at the head of Loch Duich. Next cross over the bridge to Skye and start your island adventure. Highlights include the craggy Cuillin Mountains, the dramatic hills of the Quiraing, and the stunning Trotternish Peninsular. Have the chance to explore the capital of Skye, Portree. You will be treated to even more stunning views and scenery as you make your way back to Inverness.

Eddie was such a great guide. He is so professional and full of humor. He is such an expert guide and we enjoyed our time with him during the tour. It was a very worthy 11.5hours and we had a great view of the Eileen Donan Castle both the morning and night view, a fun time with all those stops we had and great photo locations. Highly-recommended guide and tour package.

The tour guide is friendly and kind. He cares for everyone. The van is also comfortable. We felt safe and secured the entire tour. A one for the books experience. I will book again. What a birthday present. Thank you to Highland tours for this wonderful lifetime experience

Even though the weather was not entirely helpful, Graham (the guide) made the experience fun. We visited quite a few places around Skye island so we got to see beautiful landscapes, and we got back on time to catch a plane. Overall would definitely recommend this tour!
