  • Invermoriston - Visit Invermoriston Falls, one of the Highlands’ most iconic river views. You will have 15 minutes to enjoy the scenic views and fresh Highland air before heading to the next stop.
  • Eilean Donan Castle - Eilean Donan Castle is the seat of the famous Highland Clan Macrae and home to the clan chiefs. You will arrive on site and have 45 minutes to take photos. Admission to the castle is not included, but you can pay to enter if you wish.
  • Fairy Pools - You will have 90 minutes here to touch the waters of the Fairy Pools, once believed to be Skye’s own fountain of youth. It’s not uncommon to see people bathing in the waters here, which display amazing colors when the sun shines. This is one of the most popular areas on the Isle of Skye.
  • Talisker Distillery - The Talisker Distillery offers a unique flavor said to be salty and smoky. This is your chance to wind down, take a breath, relax, and enjoy the single malt whisky Scotland is famous for.
  • The Old Man of Storr - We only drive past this area, but on a clear day, the needle rock formation can be seen from the roadside. Legend says it was once a giant who walked around the isle, and when they buried him, they left his thumb sticking out so you know where to find him.
  • Kilt Rock - Kilt Rock is our final stop on this tour. You can take in views of Mealt Falls, Kilt Rock, and look all the way down to the Brothers’ Viewpoint.

Stand in the castle of the dinosaur’s footprint and look out as far as the eye can see.
