Hi, my name is Carole and I have been involved with tours and excursions for 5 years now. I have lived in Scotland all my life and Inverness for the last 25 years. I probably have one of the best jobs in the world meeting all you wonderful people from all around the globe. My passions are the Highlands of Scotland and Isle of Skye, and whether it's battlefields or castles, stunning landscapes, whisky, lochs or Nessie hunting, you can tour and cover them all. I aim to take your wish list of locations and help you turn them into a meaningful, memorable and magical experience. From the Speyside and Highland whisky trails, with many beautiful distilleries for your consideration and enjoyment and a taste experience that can't be rivaled, or perhaps a walking adventure in our magical countryside and wildlife of our glens, rest assured I know how to excite your imagination and expectations on a guided personal tour of our stunning country and its history. My experience and knowledge of history, myths and locations can help provide you with some great ideas for your tours. You will be transported in comfort and style in my immaculately presented Mercedes GLC 4x4 which gives a panoramic unclouded view of our stunning scenery. We could arrange pick up from your chosen location whether it's a hotel, house, port, train station or ferry, which will ensure that before, during and after the tour, your day will be undisturbed, memorable and talked about for years to come. Tours can be full or half days and start/finish times can be flexible to suit your needs on the day. I can do repositioning tours, maybe you fancy starting in Inverness and ending in Edinburgh or vice versa with scenic stops along the way. I can also offer multi day tours anywhere around Scotland. Just message me and we can sort out the best places to visit. If you are happy with three in the back I am happy to take four people 20 years experience as a professional driver. 5 years experience as a tour guide. None.

Overview of your Inverness tour

New for 2026! A tour that enables you to see two very different castles in the area in one day. From the ruins of Urquhart Castle which was founded in the 13th century and played a major role in the Scottish Wars of independence and raided on numerous occasions until it was destroyed in 1692 Travel along the shore of Loch Ness and meet the famous Nessie hunter! Perhaps even Nessie herself! Head to Culloden Battlefield the last pitched battle in Scotland in 1746 after which life in the Highlands changed drastically! Onto Inverness Castle, the site has had many castles over the years from 1057, the current building dates from the 1830s and was previously a courthouse and a prison. It has been transformed into a world class attraction

Your Inverness tour itinerary

- Pick up from accommodation - Head to Urquhart Castle photo stop - Look for ‘Nessie’ on Loch Ness - Meet our famous Highland Cows - Visit Inverness Castle - Time to walk around Inverness, perhaps coffee or lunch - Last but not least a visit to Culloden Battlefield * Another option could be to visit Cawdor Castle or a Whisky distillery instead of Culloden Battlefield
