Inverness: John O'Groats and the Far North Day Tour

Inverness: John O'Groats and the Far North Day Tour

Gaze across the vast landscapes of the iconic Scottish Highlands on a day trip from Inverness. Visit Dunrobin Castle, John O’Groats, and Wick, and keep your eyes peeled for wildlife sightings along the way. Depart Inverness and head north to Loch Fleet, where you might spot seals and native bird species and snap stunning photos. Next, visit the village of Golspie, a charming seaside resort on the North Sea coast, nestled beside Ben Bhraggie. Take a break for refreshments here before continuing to Dunrobin Castle. Dunrobin Castle, the ancestral home of Clan Sutherland, boasts a striking resemblance to a French chateau with its soaring spires and views over the Moray Firth. Take time to explore the castle, gardens, and museum (optional extra), or enjoy a snack in the tearoom. Before reaching John O’Groats, venture further into the Northern Highlands, stopping in Wick, the main town in Scotland's far north. Have lunch in this vibrant town with Viking roots while soaking up views across Wick Bay. After Wick, arrive at John O’Groats, the northernmost point on the British mainland. Stroll along the cliff path, take a photo at the iconic signpost, and marvel at the stunning coastal views. Keep an eye out for Atlantic puffins, grey seals, and possibly even orcas. As you begin your return to Inverness, stop for photos at Dunbeath Harbour and Brora, known for their golf courses and spectacular coastal scenery, before heading back home.

Overall rating

The trip was timed well and the guide did not rush. There was enough time everywhere for photos and eat outs. The seats weren’t that comfortable considering the 11 hrs journey. The temperature was well maintained in the bus and had good music. The guide was friendly. Had right number of nature breaks. The suggest to update the itinerary to the current schedule

It was a super nice trip and our guide was very nice and knowledgeable about the highlands. When visiting the castle, I would recommend going to the little side museum located in the gardens, as it seems not many people noticed this.

This tour is spectacular. Dunrobin Castle looks like a fairy tale. There is a falconry show at 11:30. The other stops are also stunning. Comfortable transport. Alex was polite the whole way. Perfect.

Really enjoyed the trip. Nice and relaxing and managed to get great photos. Richard was a good driver and kept us all engaged with all activities. Lots of knowledge and history given. Thanks

Alex the Guide is amazing! Beautiful landscape and castles!
