WILDLIFE CRUISE & LOCH NESS
We journey to Inverness where we enjoy a 2 hour wildlife cruise along the picturesque Moray Firth to Chanonry Point Lighthouse. Enjoy stunning views, local history and rich wildlife, all delivered through engaging onboard commentary. In the afternoon we travel to the village of Drumnadrochit in Loch Ness, home to the world famous Loch Ness Monster. Here you will have some time to explore before we return to the hotel for our evening meal.

FUNICULAR MOUNTAIN RAILWAY & LOCH GARTEN OSPREYS
Enjoy a trip this morning on the funicular railway near Aviemore, enjoying the amazing views from the pinnacle. After time up the mountain we come back to level ground and our coach will whisk you through the beautiful Speyside surroundings for a visit to Grantown on Spey before our trip to the Loch Garten Osprey Centre. These rare birds fly thousands of miles to return to this same nesting site year after year - and you may even spot the arrival of chicks if you are lucky!
