Local farm shop in Beauly, selling local products and Scottish products and gifts. It is the home of the Heilan Coos (Highland Cows), Katie-Morag and Jamie MacKenzie Fraser. They also have an alpaca family!
- The beautiful village of Beauly captures the true spirit of the Scottish Highlands. Its name comes from the French beau lieu, meaning beautiful place — and it’s easy to see why. Surrounded by rolling farmland, ancient woodland, and dramatic hills, Beauly is a place where time slows down and Highland life shines through. (pass by)
-
Loch NessDriving on, we will be heading towards the famous and mysterious Loch Ness. Loch Ness is 22.5 miles long and it is the biggest loch in the UK by volume, with enough fresh water to supply England and Wales. After having seen Nessie (yes, you did see Nessie!), we will be taking you to the ancient ruins of Urquhart Castle by Loch Ness.

Urquhart CastleUrquhart Castle is one of Scotland’s most dramatic and beloved landmarks. Its weathered stone walls and sweeping views tell the story of more than a thousand years of Highland history — from medieval battles to Jacobite uprisings. Today, visitors can explore the castle ruins, climb the Grant Tower for breathtaking panoramas of the loch, and imagine life within its walls when clans once defended these lands. On a clear day, the views are simply unforgettable — and if you’re lucky, you might just catch a glimpse of something mysterious moving in the waters below! Admission fee to Urquhart Castle is approximately £20.00 per person (tbc), and I recommend booking the tickets in advance during the high season.

InvernessInverness is a small but vibrant city in the Scottish Highlands, often referred to as the “Capital of the Highlands.” It sits at the northeast end of the Great Glen, where the River Ness flows from Loch Ness into the Moray Firth. The River Ness runs through the city, crossed by elegant pedestrian bridges and lined with scenic walkways. *** Lunch and shop opportunity***
-
Clava CairnsDated 4,000 years ago, Clava Cairns is a Bronze Age cemetery located a few minutes from Culloden Battlefield. The well-preserved prehistoric site invites us to explore how the past civilisation utilised the area to make their sacred rituals.
-
Culloden BattlefieldA must-visit place while visiting the Inverness area. Approximately 15 minutes from the city centre, you will find the battlefield where the deadliest battle happened - the year was 1746. Jacobite supporters seeking to restore the Stuart monarchy to the British thrones gathered to fight the Duke of Cumberland's government troops. Culloden was the last pitched battle on British soil and, in less than an hour, around 1,300 men were slain – about 1,250 of them Jacobites.
If it’s canceled due to poor weather, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.
