Discover the spectacular landscapes of northern Scotland on this day trip from Inverness. You'll visit the northernmost town in Great Britain: John o' Groats.

John o' Groats Day Trip

After meeting at Railway Terrace, you'll board your bus for the excursion to John o' Groats. The first stop is Loch Fleet, a nature reserve and sea loch known for its birds and seals. Next, you'll visit the village of Golspie, providing time to stretch your legs and enjoy views of North Sea beaches.

Just outside Golspie, there will be a stop at Dunrobin Castle, characterized by its Scottish Baronial and French Renaissance architecture. You can explore its elegant rooms, gardens, and museum.

The journey continues to Wick, one of the oldest Viking settlements in the UK, where you'll have free time to explore the historic center and enjoy a typical lunch (not included) with views of Wick Bay.

After lunch, you'll drive for about half an hour to John o' Groats. Here, you can stroll along the seafront cliff and enjoy panoramic views of the Scottish Highlands, with potential sightings of Atlantic puffins, grey seals, and orcas.

The return journey to Inverness takes around three hours, with brief stops at Dunbeath port and Brora for photos of the countryside. After a total of 11 hours of exploration, you'll arrive back in Inverness.
