This combination of excursions is sure to delight coach holiday travellers.

North Coast 500
Enjoy the stunning road trip known as our Route 66 with this grand excursion taking in the Wester Ross section of the layout. Slow down and explore a land of breathtaking landscapes, secretive hill lochs, mist shrouded mountain peaks and Mediterranean style beaches. We enjoy stops at Poolewe, Ullapool and Lochinver. Poolewe is a beautiful little village, Ullapool is famous for the colourful fishing boats on the harbour and Lochinver offers beautiful white sandy beaches.  

Dolphin Cruise
Enjoy the chance to see the world’s most northerly population of Bottlenose Dolphins in the Moray Firth. An experience made all the more enjoyable by the stability and space of the boat, Dolphin Spirit. She is classified as a “Motor Passenger Ferry”, which means she is  specifically designed to carry people in comfort and from the dolphins’ point of view, this is a quiet boat.

Isle of Skye
After an early breakfast we travel by road, passing the famous Eilean Donan Castle and over the Skye Bridge to spend the day in the island capital of Portree. Surrounded by high ground and cliffs, Portree is known for its colourful fishing harbour. The main town lies behind the harbour, with the main focus being Somerled Square, home to the Mercat Cross and war memorial. Portree is charming to wander around and offers a range of interesting speciality shops. Please note, this will be a long but very worthwhile day.
