Enchanting Royal Highlands | Culloden & Loch Ness

from £550.00

🕔 8 Hours

Embark on an emotive journey through the heart of the Highlands. This comprehensive tour blends the somber history of Scotland’s greatest battles with the mythical allure of Loch Ness and the world-renowned craft of Scotch whisky.

  • Culloden Battlefield: Walk the haunting moor where the final Jacobite Rising came to a tragic end in 1746. Explore the immersive visitor center and stand among the clan stones of the last hand-to-hand battle fought on British soil.

  • Loch Ness & Urquhart Castle: Peer into the depths of Britain’s largest body of water in search of "Nessie." Choose to visit the iconic ruins of Urquhart Castle, a historic stronghold perched on the loch's edge with over 1,000 years of dramatic sieges.

  • Clava Cairns: Step back 4,000 years at this Bronze Age burial site. Wander through ancient stone circles and passage graves that served as the real-life inspiration for the "split stone" in the Outlander series.

  • Distillery & Priory: Customize your day with a visit to the Singleton of Glen Ord or Tomatin Distillery to sample exceptional single malts. Complete your experience at the serene Beauly Priory, a 13th-century monastic ruin once home to the Valliscaulian Order.

  • Tailored Luxury: This tour is uniquely yours. Choose one castle (Urquhart or Cawdor) and one distillery to ensure a pace that suits your interests perfectly.
