See Orkney’s top Neolithic sites and remote coast from Inverness on a small-group tour with reserved entries and a local driver-guide.
“I had thought to do the trip by public transport, but this particular trip checked all my boxes. Emily was an amazing guide and she made the three days an absolute enjoyable experience. I saw so many different sites in that short time that I could have never done on my own. It was like another trip within my trip. My particular lodging was in a guesthouse about a mile out of the city centre of Kirkwall, but Emily either dropped us in town or came to collect us. The walk back to the lodging was easy. The transportation was in a 16 person mini bus and was very comfortable.…”
Ferry to Lewis and Harris, small-group Hebrides sights, Arnol Blackhouse, white-sand beaches, and two nights in Stornoway.
“This three day journey with Kev and Willi was absolutely brilliant. Intending to do this trip alone, I opted to join this outing and could have never seen or done any of the visits that these fine gentlemen shared with our group. It was like a trip back to yesteryear learning about the past of Hebrides. I was completely gobsmacked by the beautiful sandy beaches and amazing countryside that I woke up to each morning. The lodging was exceptional and served a wonderful breakfast to begin each day.”

Steam through the Highlands, ferry to Skye, and hit iconic cliffs, castles, whisky, and Culloden in 3 days from Inverness.
“Our tour was exceptional, thanks to our outstanding guide, Harrison. His knowledge, wit, and passion for Scotland transformed every stop into a memorable experience. Harrison went above and beyond, surprising us with hidden gems and extra activities not on the itinerary. His warm personality made the tour feel like traveling with a knowledgeable friend. His positive attitude and ability to keep everyone engaged were remarkable. This tour was the highlight of our Scottish vacation, offering a perfect blend of nature, history, culture and fun. Highly recommended!Read more”
