De ultieme groepsreis naar Loch Ness vanuit Invergordon
Beschrijving
De nummer één bekroonde Loch Ness Group-tour vanuit Invergordon. Een verhoogd uitzicht op de prachtige Schotse hooglanden tijdens de tour. Een ruime en luxe bus. Mooie schilderachtige rit van 1 uur naar Loch Ness. Aankomst in Urquhart voor opening en vooral voordat het super druk wordt. Een ontspannende cruise op Loch Ness met de bekroonde Jacobite Cruises. Geniet van een zeer stille boot dankzij onze speciale regeling met Jacobite. Mooie rit door Inverness naar het slagveld van Culloden. Loop het slagveld op met gids Fiona met een beetje Gaelic zang en een whiskytoast. Nog een pittoreske rit naar Cawdor, waar je door het kasteel en de tuinen kunt dwalen. Je hebt dan nog een prachtige schilderachtige rit terug naar Invergordon en gaat op een andere manier dan je kwam om het meeste van de Schotse Hooglanden in je op te nemen! Alle toegangsprijzen zijn inbegrepen en vooraf betaald, zodat je zonder in de rij te hoeven staan, zo de kastelen in kunt lopen.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
De rit naar Loch Ness is erg pittoresk en voert je door glooiende heuvels en landbouwgrond. Onderweg krijg je de kans om over de geschiedenis van het gebied te horen en iets meer te weten te komen over je gids en hun ervaringen met het leven in de Schotse Hooglanden.
U komt aan in de 14e-eeuwse ruïnes van het Urquhart-kasteel, prachtig gelegen aan de rand van het meer. Het is een van de meest gefotografeerde taferelen in Schotland. Geniet van een videopresentatie en een optionele audiotour en je gids zal er zijn om al je vragen te beantwoorden. Je hebt tijd om de ruïnes te verkennen en te genieten van het prachtige uitzicht over het meer.
Je gaat aan boord van de Jacobitische rebel vanuit Dochgarroch Locks voor een cruise van 60 minuten over het wereldberoemde meer van Urquhart Castle. Dit is echt de beste manier om Loch Ness en de Great Glen te ervaren. Je leert alles over Nessie het monster van Loch Ness en hoort over de geschiedenis en geologie van het zoetwatermeer. Loch Ness wordt omringd door prachtige landschappen en bergen dus leun achterover, geniet van het uitzicht en laat je camera buiten voor het geval Nessie opduikt om hallo te zeggen. Er is ook een goed gevulde bar en koffieservice aan boord.
Geweldige plek om een hapje te eten, verken het bezoekerscentrum met een meeslepende bioscoopervaring van 360 graden. Voor degenen die geïnteresseerd zijn, zal Fiona je gids ook een korte wandeling op het slagveld geven.
Aankomst in Cawdor Castle, waar u het kasteel, de tuinen en de grond kunt bekijken. Ze serveren ook heerlijk eten, thee, koffie en thuis bakken.

Wat is inbegrepen
Ophaallocaties en -tijden
Tour Guide Fiona zal vanaf 07.30 uur in de haven aanwezig zijn om gasten te verwelkomen. Jullie lopen dan allemaal naar de bus en de tour vertrekt om 8 uur uit Invergordon. Omdat Invergordon een kleine stad is, proberen we zo dicht mogelijk bij de haven te parkeren, maar helaas kunnen we niet direct buiten de poorten parkeren. Er is een korte wandeling naar uw bus vanwaar u ons ontmoet, maar u wordt daarheen gebracht door een van onze medewerkers, zodat u niet verdwaalt.

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!!!!!!!

Fantastic tour! Out of the 3 tours we took in Scotland, this was my favorite. Fiona, our guide, was informative and entertaining. We had the added bonus of having Jason, a bagpipe player on the bus with us. They both told personal stories, and told us about the areas we were traveling thru from their perspective. I loved it!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear this was your favorite tour in Scotland. Fiona and Jason will be delighted to know you enjoyed their stories and company – it was a pleasure having you with us!
