Vous traversez la région de Speyside jusqu’au majestueux Parc National des Cairngorms. C’est le parc national le plus grand du Royaume-Uni et il abrite une faune sauvage extraordinaire au cœur de ses imposantes montagnes. De nombreuses options sont offertes et votre guide vous fera découvrir des paysages merveilleux aux alentours de Loch Morlich et de Glenmore.
Ensuite vous allez à la Distillerie de Glenfiddich où l’on vous confiera les secrets de la distillation ; vous pourrez y goûter l’un des meilleurs petits verres de whisky dans le lieu même où il est mis en fût.
Un court trajet vous ramène à Inverness, à temps pour profiter des sons et des spectacles d’une soirée animée dans la capitale des Highlands.
You depart Inverness and head south towards the Cairngorms
National Park. Your first destination is the forest village of Carrbridge. Here
you have time for refreshments and a wander around the old Packhorse Bridge.
A short drive via Aviemore takes you towards the Cairngorm
Snow Sports Range and above the tree-line for a brilliant view of the rolling
mountains.
You then descend to the Glenmore Forest Park, where you have free
time to explore. Your options include a walk through the woods to Loch Morlich,
which is one of Scotland’s most scenic and popular Lochs. You can admire a
sandy beach and large and ancient pine trees before you make your way back to
the mini-coach. If you prefer not to walk, there’s a café and exhibition at the
visitor centre.
After a short drive, there’s time for lunch in the historic
town of Grantown-on-Spey.
You follow the famous river Spey past several distilleries to
Dufftown and the famous Glenfiddich distillery.
Glenfiddich Distillery produces the largest quantity of
whisky in Scotland. But it’s far from a sterile factory, this is a historic distillery
created by a famous whisky pioneering family, and the traditions and age of the
site are evident. Your guide here gives you an extensive tour including a
tasting of the core range of Glenfiddich’s delicious whiskies.
Near to the Distillery are the historic ruins of Balvenie
Castle. There may be time to get a photo of the castle before you leave. Or if you want to skip the Glenfiddich tour, you can venture into the ruins.
From here you return to Inverness in the early evening.
We had the special thrill to be hosted on our tour by Helen, who used humor and her vast knowledge of Scottish history to make this experience totally unique. Thanks to Helen, I have a new favorite music group, Skipinnish!
The UK and Ireland's historic city centres are full of narrow streets and winding roads. So, to speed up your departure, we only pick up from our central meeting points. What's more is leaving the city using the most direct route also reduces the carbon footprint of our tours.
We don't recommend bringing your car into the centre of our departure cities. It can be hard to find parking, and there are excellent public transportation services.
Arrive 15 minutes before your departure time. Due to waiting restrictions, we can't wait for you if you're late.
If you're late for your tour, our cancellation policy applies.
We have a cancellation period of 48 hours for our one day tours, 15 days for two to nine day tours, and 21 days for 10+ day tours. If cancelled outside this period, we'll give you a full refund minus a 10% admin charge. If you cancel inside this period, refunds are at our discretion. Click here to view full terms and conditions.
It's simple: you book, you go. This means we'll never cancel your tour because of a minimum numbers policy.
Due to logistical reasons, we're unable to let you pre-book a seat on the bus. But our comfortable 16-seat mini-coaches have huge windows. So, you'll always get a good view.
Unfortunately, we have no on-board toilet facilities, but you'll have regular comfort breaks.
We aim to accommodate everyone. To read more information on how we do this, click here to go to our accessibility guide.
We regret we don't carry children under the age of five on our scheduled tours.
You can ask us about the tours we recommend for younger children. And if your child is less than 1.35m tall, you should let us know, so we can provide them with a suitable booster seat.
We want you to enjoy Britain and Ireland. And we believe the best way to do this is to get you off the mini-coach and out exploring. So, we give you plenty of time to take photos, go walking, and explore ancient ruins.
We exclude visitor attractions in your tour price because it lets you travel your way. It means you can pamper yourself with a luxury lunch or skip an attraction whenever you feel like it.
You don't need to. We stop in small towns, villages, and rural eateries where you can choose whatever meal pleases both your taste buds and your budget.
Let's be honest, our driver-guides would never refuse a cheeky bonus. But it's up to you, and the amount is entirely at your discretion.
We advise you take out travel insurance.
You're protected by ABTOT when you chose to let us reserve your accommodation on a multi-day tour. This means you can claim back anything you've paid us if we become bankrupt. Read our terms and conditions for more information.
