Grand Tour of the Outer Hebrides

Vatersay Bay, the Outer Hebrides in Scotland

Grand Tour of the Outer Hebrides

Travel the length and breadth of the Western Isles on a tour that includes visits to 5,000-year-old standing stones, time to enjoy areas of natural beauty and four scenic ferry crossings, along with accommodation, 5 dinners and 5 breakfasts.

Our extended tour of the Outer Hebrides has proved extremely popular, offering as it does a unique opportunity to travel the length and breadth of the Western Isles. Our Grand tour takes in all the beauty and diversity of this very special environment with nine or ten different islands (depending on departure) and four ferry trips included. Two comfortable hotels ensure that this holiday in the Outer Hebrides is as relaxing as possible, while at the same time offering great variety and the sense of a true journey of discovery which will live long in the memory. This itinerary features part of the North Coast 500, the highly scenic coastal route which begins and ends in Inverness. Highlights include visits to Luskentyre Beach, the Standing Stones of Callanish, the Norse Mill at Shawbost, the Black Houses of Gearrannan, Cockleshell Beach airport on the Isle of Barra, St. Clement's Church at Rodel and South Uist's Kildonan Museum.
