Itinerary Changes

In August and September, the itinerary will change; we won't visit Troup Head. Instead, we'll explore Spey Bay, a coastal reserve with the largest shingle beach and a great place to observe wildlife, including dolphins, and visit Aberlour, a village on the banks of the River Spey.
