Having qualified as a Scottish Tourist Guide for the North Highlands in 2018, I am brimming full of enthusiasm for showing visitors the delights of the Highlands, where I have lived and travelled extensively since 1997. My previous role as a charity event fundraising manager introduced me to the iconic scenery of the Highlands and developed my people and communication skills. I am also a member of a local Tourist Guide Association, which keeps me connected with the latest talks and information available. Whether you have interests in Scottish Culture, ancient castles, the sometimes bloodied history, famous wildlife, awesome geology, stunning lochs and spectacular mountains or just want to chill in one of the most unique areas in the world, off the beaten track, I would be delighted to guide you, and help create what I hope will be one of your most enjoyable and entertaining holidays. In my comfortable, roomy and air conditioned Skoda Superb Plug In Hybrid, I can driver guide for up to 3/4 people. For groups of up to 8 people, I can hire an Arnold Clarke people carrier, for an additional fee. I can also provide walking tours in the beautiful city of Inverness, where I am fortunate to live, which could be part of a day's tour. I can meet you at your accommodation near Inverness or your cruise ship in Invergordon, Ullapool or Fort William. The Highlands have been home to some amazing people and I want to share their stories with you, sample the delights of what they eat and drink and give you a taste of life in the Highlands today. You can choose one of my advertised tours, which can be adapted, taking care with the timings, or I am happy to provide bespoke tours for any "must sees" or "must dos" that you have. Several of my tours are suitable or can be adapted for wheelchair users and I am happy to design bespoke tours to help visitors with other disabilities make the most of the Highlands. Your enjoyment is my aim and with my informal, friendly and sometimes humorous approach, I want to provide an unforgettable experience in this beautiful and fascinating area, which can take your breath away! I gained my Scottish Tourist Guide Association Green Badge for North Highlands from the University of the Highlands and Islands and I'm a member of the Highlands of Scotland Tour Guide Association (HOSTGA). I have full indemnity insurance as well as an Emergency First Aid Training certificate.

I designed this delightful day to take guests to the heart of Highland Single Malt territory with something for every sense. Being one of my dearest tours, I will include all of my suggestions as a local guide. Starting at the agreed meeting location, we will enjoy a visit to the highly-rated Speyside Cooperage Centre and take a tour at one of the world's most famous whiskies: Glenfiddich Distillery (or other Speyside distilleries of your choosing!). We will explore the classic sites in the area, and stop off at a historic working woolen mill. Enjoy beautiful Findhorn Bay and maybe sample some local seafood before driving through Carrbridge with its stunning old "coffin" bridge. Find out about the altruistic Grant that founded Grantown on Spey and drive through the old Jacobite fighting territory. By the end of the tour, let's stop for a photo at Craigellachie Bridge.
Pick up at accommodation • Visit 230-year-old Knockando Woolmill. Fresh, contemporary designs and traditional tweeds and classic woolen blankets - skilled craftsmanship that has been at the heart of the Woolmill since the beginning. • Glenfiddich Explorer Tour (1 1/2hrs) is a journey through every part of the Glenfiddich tradition, to find out how the world's most awarded whiskies are created.
