We booked the ‘Ultimate Loch Ness Group Tour’ with Invergordon Tours for our family of six—two seniors, two adults and two teenagers—and it ended up being one of our favourite days of our entire 12-night British Isles cruise. The itinerary was fantastic and had something for everyone in our group. It was a great mix of beautiful scenery, interesting stops and Scottish history without ever feeling rushed or overwhelming. Our guide, Fiona, was wonderful! She was friendly, informative and entertaining, and really added to the experience. Travelling with three generations can sometimes make finding an excursion everyone enjoys a challenge, but this one was genuinely a hit with all six of us. We would absolutely recommend Invergordon Tours and the Ultimate Loch Ness tour to other cruise passengers looking for a memorable day in the Scottish Highlands. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
The tour itself was great, but our guide, Fiona, made the tour. She had countless information about the sites and numerous personal stories that she added. Probably the best tour guide we’ve ever had.
Fiona was great!!! The tour felt personalized even though it was for a random group of people. Learning lots of history from someone that lives and works in the area was fantastic. My dad and I had Witches of Scotland tartan scarves made before this trip. So getting to meet a local (our tour guide) wearing it and that worked at Prickly Thistle where it was made was a surreal bonus! We were also back in plenty of time to meet our ship!
Our tourist guide Fiona is enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She explained and told us the history of Scotland in detail. I especially enjoyed the Loch Ness boat ride. Thank you Fiona for your excellent and wonderful job.
Our group of 15 joined the Ultimate Loch Ness Tour offered by Invergordon Tour (invergordon.com) the tour cover visit to Urquhart castle, Loch Ness cruise, Cawfor Castle, and Culloden Battlefield. The tour was very well organized, we were picked up at the pier promptly, admission to each itinerary location were handled smoothly and quick. More, importantly, our tour guide Fiona was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and even offers Gaelic singing and a whisky toast to commemorate the lost soldiers at the Culloden battlefield, we learnt about the Scottish and Jocobite history. The cruise at Loch Ness was relax and scenic.
This was a fantastic excursion. Fiona!was easy to find at the dock. She was friendly and knowledgeable. The stoos were better than expected. I am an Urquhart so it was a dream come true. Fiona sang foe us had a wee dram for us had a little door prize for some trailers. A 10 star excursion for sure. Back to ship in plenty of time. And plenty of time at each stop.
Fiona was so much fun! Every place we stopped was worth the trip. Fiona helped take photos on the Loch Ness cruise that make great keepsakes. My parents came with us, and the experience was senior friendly.
This tour was amazing and it was made even better by our tour guide Fiona. She was a local and truly knew the history of the area and even was a good singer. She sang us a Gaelic song at the Culledon Battlefield memorial. We saw 2 castles and took the boat on Loch Ness to look for Nessie. Fiona took care of everything for us and kept everyone on schedule and rounded up. We had a return time of 4:30 and literally arrived back at 4:29! Definitely would recommend this tour especially if Fiona does it!
What an awesome tour! And even more awesome was Fiona our tour guide! She gave us invaluable insights and clear directions took care of everything and even gave us some snacks and did a raffle! She even sang to us in Gaelic. We saw 2 castles, Loch Ness and the battelfield, while learning each step of the way. Would definitely recommend this tour especially with Fiona!!!
We were a group of 18 traveling on a cruise ship to Iceland with Ireland and Scotland as a bonus. I was the group leader. Most of our tours were private. I was privately hoping Fiona was our guide and not only did we get Fiona but we got her Beautiful daughter as well. There aren't enough stars for this tour. It was over the top and quickly a Favorite of our entire group. The transportation was awesome and Fiona's love of Scotland along with our history lesson were out of this world! The cruise over the Loch Ness was awesome and the fact Gavin booked everything ahead of time made it so easy as a group leader! Keep doing what you are doing guys! You are Amazing!!!!!!!
Hi Robin! Wow – thank you so much for such an incredible review! It was truly a pleasure to welcome your group to Scotland, and we’re absolutely thrilled to hear that your time with us was a highlight of your entire trip. Fiona and her daughter loved spending the day with you all – and knowing that their passion for Scotland came through so clearly means the world to us. We're also so glad the logistics made your job as group leader easier – that's exactly what we aim for, so you can relax and enjoy the experience along with everyone else. From the scenic cruise on Loch Ness to the unforgettable stories and history, it sounds like your group really embraced the magic of the Highlands.
