I am a Highlander born and bred who has been fortunate to have worked and lived in many stunning areas right across Scotland, although always returning to the Highlands itself. Such locations has enabled me to absorb both the natural beauty and the impressive history that Scotland has to offer. The knowledge and geographical awareness that I have been exposed to has now enabled me to share such wonderful locations and experiences that Scotland has to offer with the many visitors who travel to Scotland. Prior to becoming a tour guide/driver I was fortunate to have retired from a successful career as a Police Officer in the Scottish Police service, working right across Scotland. Serving the local communities for many years has allowed me to experience the vast diverse cultures that are present. Equally such experiences has enabled me to appreciate the large amount of iconic locations that we have right the way throughout Scotland. The tours that I offer ensure that all will be exposed to the wonders that each location has to offer, such landscapes and views are forever changing throughout the seasons. The bonus of being a Highlander familiar with the areas visited, is the bonus of finding that wonderful scenic view normally hidden away. The tours listed here provide an opportunity to experience first-hand what Scotland has to offer. I am 100% flexible in my approach to each day, each tour can be amended/adjusted to suit the unique interests of guests, ensuring that maximum enjoyment is achieved by all. Working in the tourist industry since 2021 I am an experienced guide looking to maximise your visit. I am unable to guide inside certain historic locations due to such locations having their own staff/guides. I am licenced by our local authority.

From Invergordon we will travel south, crossing over the Cromarty Firth where the cruise liner is berthed as we head towards Inverness and the Culloden battlefield. Take the opportunity to walk the battlefield, crossing the lines of where both the Jacobite and the Government forces assembled on that fateful day. Visit the memorial cairn, see the Clan stones including the "Outlander" Fraser Stone. Continue the Outlander theme with a visit to the 4000yr old standing stones at the Clava Cairns. What affect will touching the "transporting stone" have on you? Continue heading east to Cawdor castle and its manicured gardens and its strong links to Shakespeare's "Macbeth". Will you be one who witnesses Nessie making an appearance as we travel alongside Loch Ness on route to the picturesque village of Beauly? Visit the ruins of the 12th Century "Old Priory" building. Option then of finishing the day of with a wee dram of choice at the Singleton Distillery Muir of Ord before returning to Invergordon and the ship.
