Tour Information

Loch Ness Tour including Glen Ord Whisky Distillery

Loch Ness Tour including Glen Ord DistilleryDiscover the mystery of Loch Ness, the medieval heritage of Urquhart Castle, the bloody history of Culloden Battlefield and finish the tour with a fascinating visit to Glen Ord Distillery.

Our tour begins at Inverness where we take a short drive to Culloden Battlefield to explore the bloody history surrounding Bonnie Prince Charlie and his Jacobite supporters and their final stand in April 1746 on Culloden Moor.

Only a short distance from Culloden are the Bronze Age burial cairns of Clava. These stone cairns are around 4000 years old and give us a fascinating glimpse of the very ancient past of the Highlands.

Leaving the Clava Cairns we journey 10 miles along the banks of Loch Ness before we arrive at the medieval ruins of Urquhart Castle. Here you have time to explore the castle, discover its links with so many of the important events in the history of the Highlands, and take advantage of its fantastic viewpoints looking out across Loch Ness. After the castle we visit the picturesque village of Drumnadrochit before we depart for the Glen Ord Whisky Distillery.

At Glen Ord you will have the opportunity to take a 50 minute tour to discover the secrets behind one of Scotland’s best export and finish the tour off with a dram. Our return journey to Inverness takes us back via the scenic village of Beauly where we have a short stop to visit the ruins of its medieval priory.


There are cafes' and restaurants at Culloden Battlefield, Urquhart Castle and the village of Drumnadrochit, so lots of options for when and where your group has lunch and coffee stops.
