Hi! Thanks for having a look at my profile and considering exploring the Highlands with me! Being a local living in the Highlands for most of my life has given me a great platform to gain an in depth knowledge of the area, it's history, culture and heritage. Having worked in the tourism industry for over 20 years, 18 of them managing information centres from Callander to Lerwick and Aberdeen to Castlebay, I have built up a fantastic knowledge of Scotland, specialising in the Highlands, and have taken that knowledge to create experiences that generally take you away from the crowds, slow you down and let you really experience the Highlands and all it has to offer. My staff throughout the information centre network are specialists in knowing about those hidden gems and in customer service, and you can be assured this is what you will receive with me. I have been guiding now for 2 years and also have my own small Bed & Breakfast where I have been helping my guests with itineraries for the past 5 years. My ratings on my sales channels are so high because of my knowledge and willingness to help create the very best of experiences for my guests and my 5 star ratings on other tour platforms also highlight the care and experience you will receive during a day with me! So, if it's great customer service, local knowledge and a fun day away from the crowds, join me on an adventure that will leave you aching to return for a longer stay! All my tours can be customized, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions - World Host trained Welcome Host trained For safety reasons we have a height/age restriction.

Overview of your Inverness tour

Your excursion can be completely customised, but the standard schedule includes visiting sandy beaches, ancient monuments, charming fishing villages as well as great local food and some wildlife spotting along the way!

Your Inverness tour itinerary

From Invergordon, we will take the quieter road out to the charming fishing village of Portmahomack to visit the Tarbat Discovery Centre to learn about the Picts - a people who lived in the area from around 400 to 900AD. We'll work our way along this peninsula visiting a great example of a post "clearance" village, magnificent carved standing stones as well as an old church with some great history! From here, we'll cross the narrow entrance of the Cromarty Firth, looking out for the largest Bottlenose Dolphins in the world, and visit the picturesque village of Cromarty where you'll have time to wander the cobbled vennels and various small craft and art galleries. Along the Black Isle, we will have options to visit Fairy glen (45 min walk) or go out to Chanonry Point for another chance to see the dolphins who hunt in the area. We'll then make our way round and back to the ship via another road, allowing you to take in some amazing views looking West!
