This is an example of what we like to do on our Skye Tour, however it is very flexible and we will take you wherever you would like to go!
Start your adventure with the breathtakingly beautiful Five Sisters of Kintail, a renowned range of mountains in the Highlands. These peaks are among Scotland’s most famous landmarks and offer dramatic landscapes shaped by centuries of history and mythology. This is an excellent opportunity for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers to capture the stunning vistas of the glen below.
Next, visit Eilean Donan Castle, one of Scotland’s most iconic and photographed castles. Situated on an island at the point where three great sea lochs meet, and surrounded by majestic scenery, it is a must-visit for anyone traveling to this part of Scotland. Enjoy a guided tour of the castle to learn about its rich history dating back to the 13th century. Explore the restored castle rooms and enjoy the exhibitions that tell tales of its past inhabitants and its importance in Scottish history. Admission into the castle is available at an additional cost.
Portree, the capital and largest town on the Isle of Skye. Known for its picturesque harbour lined with brightly coloured houses, Portree serves as a cultural hub on the island. Spend some time wandering through the town’s quaint streets, visit local shops for unique crafts, and enjoy a meal at one of the seafood restaurants, where you can taste freshly caught fish from the surrounding waters.
Conclude your tour at the Trotternish Peninsula, an area of Skye noted for its stunning and unique geological features like the Old Man of Storr, the Quiraing, and the Kilt Rock. Drive or hike along the peninsula to view these extraordinary landscapes. Make stops at key viewpoints for short walks, photo ops, and to absorb the breathtaking scenery that makes Skye such a magical place.
