As you can see by the photograph of myself these mountains are my front garden in the beautiful village of Lochcarron Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands close to the famous Applecross peninsular. I became a tour guide about twelve years ago because of my love of the highlands, its history and its beautiful scenery. I have been organising tours for clients arriving at Invergordon Ullapool and Portree by cruise liner also staying at the many quality hotels such as the Torridon Hotel nestling in the majestic Torridon mountains Bespoke tours have been arranged to places as varied as Loch Ness, Cawdor Castle, Isle of Skye, Applecross, Dunrobin Castle. and Speyside Whisky Tours My informal friendly style has given me 5 star ratings with all my clients as I always try to make sure that they have a memorable day. The vehicle that I use is a Ford Transit minibus with air conditioning and comfortable seating for eight passengers I also use a microphone linked to the sound system if required. I have installed a covid screen in the vehicle and the minibus is sanitised before before every tour for your safety. I am fully licensed by the local Highland Council and also fully insured. I do not accompany you inside castles distillery etc but will give you an insight as to what to look out for and give directions to entry points

We travel north to the historic town of Dornoch visiting the cathedral and the Jail. We continue north spotting some seals en-route if we are lucky to Dunrobin Castle at Golspie in time for the falconry display in the grounds. We then visit the magnificent castle itself which is reminiscent of a French château. From Dunrobin we continue to a whisky tasting at the famous Glenmorangie Distillery which stands near the shores of the Dornoch Firth at Tain. After leaving the distillery we conclude the tour by taking a scenic drive over the mountains to "Millionaires' View" for a spectacular view of the Dornoch Firth, returning to your cruise ship at Invergordon via flower-filled Alness. This tour takes around seven hours and it can be amended to fit your requirements.
