Explore the Isle of Skye in a full day tour
Description
On this tour you will experience the island life on the biggest island in the inner Hebrides. Leaving Portree, we will travel north to our first stop, The Storr. Up next, is The Kilt Rock. This is a famous sea cliff in north east Trotternish. It is said to resemble a kilt, with vertical ballast columns to form the pleats and intruded sills of dolerite forming the pattern. ( short photo stop ) From here, a short drive will take us to The Quiraing, another amazing rock formation that hold secrets of the past when the locals used to hide from the marauding vikings. Heading south-west we will visit the Museum of Island Life and it's black houses showcasing life on the island hundreds of years ago. Dunvegan Castle is out next stop and lunch break. This was the seat of the chiefs of the clan MacLeod first built in the 13th century and developed over the centuries. On our way back to Portree, if time allows we could make a quick stop to sample some whisky at Seumas bar.

Great tour of the countryside and castle. Guide also picked a great place for lunch with wonderful gluten free crab-cakes! Highly recommend booking!
We could not have hoped for a better day and guide on The Isle of Skye. Dezso (Chubby) was fantastic... from the thoughtful items throughout his van, to his area and historical knowledge, to his starting early to beat the crowds - we had a wonderful day on Skye. We highly recommend this tour and guide.
Even though it was rainy and foggy, we still enjoyed all the things we were able to see in experience
Our guide was incredible! Seeing the countryside in our own private van, getting to visit a local pub and experience the history.... it was an outstanding day!
