Invergordon Shore Excursion
Discover the very best of the Scottish Highlands on this unforgettable journey from Invergordon to the legendary shores of Loch Ness.
After meeting your friendly local guide at the port, travel through the beautiful Highland countryside toward Loch Ness, the largest and most mysterious loch in Scotland. Along the way enjoy stunning views, hear tales of Highland history and folklore, and perhaps even keep an eye out for the famous Loch Ness Monster.
Your first highlight is the dramatic ruins of Urquhart Castle, perched on the banks of Loch Ness. With over 1,000 years of history, this iconic fortress played a key role during the Wars of Scottish Independence and offers some of the most spectacular views over the loch. Take time to explore the castle ruins, visit the exhibition centre, and capture unforgettable photographs of the surrounding landscape.
Continue through the Highlands to experience another Scottish treasure, single malt whisky. Visit a traditional Highland distillery where you can learn about the centuries-old craft of whisky making and enjoy the opportunity to sample Scotland’s “water of life.”
During the day you will also pass through the Highland capital of Inverness, where you can see the River Ness, the cathedral, and the historic castle overlooking the city.
With breathtaking scenery, fascinating history, and a taste of Scotland’s most famous spirit, this shore excursion is the perfect introduction to the magic of the Highlands before returning comfortably to your ship in Invergordon.
