Loch Ness is our companion on the first leg of our journey as we wind our way along its brooding banks, stopping in Invermoriston for a photo beside the dramatic waterfall and Thomas Telford bridge.
Equally impressive is the Five Sisters mountain range as we continue through Glen Shiel to Eilean Donan Castle. Standing proudly at the head of three lochs, we stop to explore the iconic ramparts that have starred in so many big-screen adventures.
More adventures await as we use Eilean Ban as a stepping stone to arrive on the Isle of Skye. Passing the islands of Scalpay and Pabay, breathtaking scenery is around every corner, with a stop at Sligachan Bridge to admire the imposing Cuillin Hills.
Then it’s on to Portree, with its pastel homes snuggled along the harbour front. Lunch comes courtesy of the local fishermen, with sizzling chips the perfect accompaniment to the freshest of catches.
No trip is complete without seeing the natural wonders of The Old Man of Storr and Kilt Rock, after which we cross the water again, returning with stops at the picturesque Kyle of Lochalsh, Loch Carron and Achnasheen, before we head to the Black Isle to bring an unforgettable day to an end.
