描述
Discover the Great Glen on a full-day tour from Inverness. Visit the ruins of Urquhart Castle, see the Commando Memorial, and stop at the Glenfinnan Monument.
Discover the beauty of the Great Glen on a full-day tour from Inverness. Visit the iconic Urquhart Castle, see the locks at Fort Augustus, and learn about the history of the area from your guide.
Start your day with a photo opportunity at Loch Ness. Watch a Beastie whisperer call the Loch Ness Monster out for a photograph. Learn about the geological event of how the loch was created and how the beasties survived all this time.
Hear about the scientists and enthusiasts who are still searching for Nessie. Stop for a short walk down to the shores of Loch Ness, take some photos of the fantastic scenery, and maybe even catch the monster hunting its breakfast.
Onwards to Urquhart Castle, on the shore of Loch Ness. Admire the military or financial setting of the castle, on a rocky promontory with an open outlook up and down Loch Ness which was the only way to travel when the castle was built.
Who fought over its ownership? Who destroyed it? (please note this is a viewpoint visit not a walk round the ruin which would eat up our time and incur entrance costs.)
On to the wee village of Invermoriston, its connection to fairy folklore, and the home of the chief of Clan Grant. Continue to Fort Augustus to see the canal locks, the south end of Loch Ness, and have lunch.
Pass by Fort William either to Glencoe and the site of the infamous massacre, or to Glenfinnan Viaduct to see the Harry Potter train and the Glenfinnan Monument to the rising of the Jacobite standard at Glenfinnan in 1745.
Visit the old Inverlochy Castle and Fort William with views of Ben Nevis. Stop at the Commando Memorial near Spean Bridge before returning up the Great Glen to the The Well of Seven Heads.
