Heart of the North Highlands Explorer Tour
Join us for a private bespoke guided tour of the North Highlands in a premium 4X4. Taking a maximum of 4 people, each tour provides an unrivalled personal experience & travelling no more than 100 miles per day leaves plenty of time for exploration.
Be reassured, in line with all Government and Public Health safety guidelines, we have completed a full Covid-19 Risk Assessment and been accredited with the UK-wide Tourism Industry Standard and Consumer Mark - We're Good to Go'.
Overview: If you would like to get a sense of the North Highlands but you are a little short on time then this tour is a great one to choose.
The route gives the perfect balance between the huge landscapes of the heartlands, the reclusive wildlife that it harbours and the drama of the coastline.
Boat excursions are available to give you a close up view of the numerous nesting seabirds and our very own Sky Explorer can ‘fly’ you up to a height of 400 feet to get some fabulous panoramic views. We will also experience the food, culture and heritage of the region too – what’s not to like?
Our tours typically start at Inverness or anywhere along the route to suit your needs.
TYPICAL HIGHLIGHTS:
● Dunrobin Castle & Museum – ancestral home of the Duke of Sutherland
● Kinbrace Hut Circles – Bronze Age hut circles with impressive views
● Red Deer and Golden Eagles – elusive and magnificent
● Loch Eribol – last anchorage of the ill-fated HMS Hood
● Achmelvich Beach – sandy bay and crystal clear water
● Lochinver – food capital of the North Highlands
● Ullapool – the chance to shop for those important souvenirs
