About This Tour
This one-day tour from Inverness takes you to some of the most important historical sites in the North, giving a glimpse of how battles were fought, and lands defended in the olden days, whilst taking you through some of the most spectacular scenery. Our first stop is Culloden Battlefield, where the Jacobite Rising came to an end. After this, we head to Clava Cairns – giving a glimpse into what life was like over 4000 years ago. Outlander fans can explore the stone circle here. We then travel to Fort George, an imposing fort built in the wake of the Battle of Culloden that you will have already learned all about at the previous stops. This massive fortification took over 22 years to build. We then head to the seaside town of Nairn for lunch. Passing by more beautiful scenery in the Cairngorms, we arrive at Loch an Eilein for a photo shop. Our final stop of the day is Aviemore - explore the beautiful village in the Cairngorms National Park, surrounded by mountains and lochs.
