Rejseplan
Afrejse Invergordon, vi rejser til vores første stop af dagen, Cawdor Castle. Beliggende midt i smukke haver i Nairnshire, Cawdor Castle er forfædres hjem for Campbells og går tilbage til det 15. århundrede. Tilbring tid her for at udforske slottet og dets maleriske omgivelser.
Fra Clava Cairns fortsætter vores Invergordon-kystudflugt til Dores Beach på Loch Ness for en hurtig foto- og forfriskningspaus, hvilket giver dig mulighed for en hurtig smule Nessie Hunting!
Vores eventyr fører derefter til Inverness; hovedstaden i højlandet. Vi tilbringer mere end en time her, masser af tid til at nyde frokost og gå langs bredden af floden Ness og helt sikkert få nogle gode udsigt over Inverness Castle.
Glen Ord er det eneste resterende single malt whisky destilleri beliggende på Black Isle og er hjemstedet for Singleton Whisky. Nyd en rundvisning i destilleriet, hvor du afslutter din Invergordon Shore-udflugt med en prøvesmagning af Singleton of Glen Ord 12 år gamle whisky.

Good value, great bus and driver. It was the tour guides first day. She was nice and will get better.
Our driver was great and the saving grace for the tour. I have never heard “I’ve never been here” quite so many times from a tour guide. She hadn’t been to any of the attractions we stopped at.
The places we visited were wonderful. Our problem was with Timberbush who the tour was outsourced to. First there was no directions on where to go when we came off of the boat or who to look for. Other tours we have done in other cities have said come out, turn right and look for guides with red hats. We had no directions and had to ask 3 different people before we found the correct location. The guide named Doreen that we were given had no knowledge of any of the locations we visited and provided little history on the area. She was very disorganized, stammered over words and kept dropping her water bottle. When we arrived at our first location she lead the group in the wrong direction of the entrance and then did not go to the entry desk to let them know our group was there and we were late. Those of us with Castle entry tickets had to go up and advocate for our group to get in. When we arrived at the distillery it was similar confusion. She is a nice person but definitely needed more training before being put out with a group. Our bus driver Andy was very knowledgeable and was often correcting her and actually took over giving us details of the area at times. I would recommend the places we visited but not the tour company it was outsourced to.
This was a fantastic tour! Doreen and Andy were both great guides throughout today’s journey from Invergordon. Thank you again!
Marita from Timberbush Tours led us on a wonderful tour in and around Inverness, with stops at Cawdor Castle, Loch Ness, and Glen Ord distillery. A well seasoned driver, she was unflappable and punctual. She filled our drive time with stories from local lore as well as pointing out the sights as we passed.
Great guide (Fiona). I am glad we ended up at Tomatin instead of Glen Ord. I really enjoyed the tour and tasting. Cawdor Castle and the grounds were brilliant. We has a taste of Loch Ness, and a surprise bonus to the Clavacairns, which was brilliant. She packed so much in. There were places I would have lingered longer, but there are only so many hours in port. Thank you, Fiona! P.S. I appreciated that she was wearing the more casual, daily kilt (as opposed to the formal kilts we always see).
The tour was great! Had to make some schedule adjustments but we were able to make the best of it. Castle was beautiful. Drive was nice and comfortable and the guide was great and very informative and friendly. Group of 7 - ages ranging from 11 - 58 and we all enjoyed.
Overall, a very good tour. Well-run timing wise and with mostly sufficient time at each site. It would have been nice to have a little longer at the distillery after the tour to taste and shop. Our tour guide Jack was amazing and was the highlight of the tour. The main issue I noticed is that there seemed to be a lot of confusion with purchasing the entrance tickets to the attraction separately. We purchased all of ours as requested by the tour company, but a lot of other people on our tour seem to have missed that instruction and were confused by it.
Hi Aaron, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! It's lovely to hear positive feedback about our driver-guide Jack! We appreciate you feedback about time spent at the distillery. We hope to welcome you on tour again in the future! Kind regards, Faye
Fiona was amazing!!!! The Whisky wasn’t our cup of tea but she found us directions to a nice walk while others toured the factory. She made sure we were well taken care of and the tour stops didn’t feel rushed. Even took us by the Cairns which were fascinating
Hi there, We appreciate you taking the time to review us, it is always lovely to get positive feedback. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your time on tour with Fiona, they definitely like to give their tours a personal touch and we are glad you agree! We will be sure to pass along your kind words. Thanks again and we hope to see you again soon! Kind regards, Eleanor
A nice balance of history, city and country. Lovely bus ride with great views, the all electric bus was comfortable and quiet. Fiona and Jeff were excellent as guide and driver. Really appreciated how the excursion was laid out and everything on time. Cawdir Castle was crowded, but moved fast, gardens were beautiful, Diane beach to look for Nessie was just right and the distillery was a nice ending. A great day!
