This tour takes in all the "Must See" attractions and destinations in and around Inverness. A day of historic sights, epic views and tall tales awaits! We enjoy lovely views of the Beauly Firth as we head to Beauly Priory. Originally built in the 13th century by monks from Dijon, France, much of the main structure remains. From here we'll head over the hill to Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle. You’ll have plenty of time to enjoy exploring this fascinating landmark whilst admiring the unrivalled views of Loch Ness. We then pass through Old Inverness, stopping to enjoy the river and more, before heading for Cawdor Castle & Gardens and the 4000 year old Clava Cairns. Our final destination is Culloden Battlefield, site of the last ever battle fought on British soil and where the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion came to its tragic end.
If you have a specific interest in one or more of these landmark destinations, please do let us know and we can adjust our schedule and route accordingly.

I don't know why you would not go here if visiting the Highlands of Scotland. The views are amazing. There is a nice little cafe where you can sit outside and take it all in and have a bite.

I would recommend without hesitation. We had a private tour for a day around Inverness (Loch Ness, Urquhart, Culloden, Beauly). Bill was great, very knowledgeable, eager to share about the region’s history and today’s reality. We learned a lot about the Scots! He took the time to show us some of his favorite pubs and around town. Thank you for a great day!

My husband's ancestors were from Scotland. We contacted the guide before the tour and were able to tweak the tour to stop by several places where we walked in the footsteps of my husband's clan. Guide was personable and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Grant Tours.

Only a true Scot can describe what you see and, more importantly, what you don’t see. Bill’s passion and expertise made us appreciate and fall in love with the Highlands. He is personable and very accommodating. Can’t wait for our next trip here!

We had an amazing experience with Bill on our full-day tour of the Inverness area. We went to the Inverness area of Scotland via cruise ship. He picked us up right on time and made sure we got back to our ship with plenty of time. He personalized our tour based on needs and preferences. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area and its history. He took us to places that you would never see on a coach tour. One of the highlights was seeing a herd of highland cows up in the hills including a few babies. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone
