We start the day by making our way into lonely Rannoch Moor and into Glen Coe, Scotland's most famous glen and the scene of the terrible massacre in 1692. We will make a stop in the midst of this awe-inspiring scenery where you can enjoy the magic ofthis special place.

From Fort William the striking scenery of the Great Glen unfolds ahead of us - first Loch lochy, then Loch Oich and finally Loch Ness. We will travel to the attractive village of Fort Augustus then drive the entire length of Loch Ness. We will stop at Urquhart Castle where you can visit the castle and enjoy a cruise on the loch.

Soon we will be crossing "over the sea to Skye"  and driving in the shadow of the towering Cuillin Hills to Portree, a picturesque fishing port which is the island’s main town. After free time we will return to the mainland and meander our way back to Inverness.
