Moray Coast Tour + Whiskey Distillery from Inverness

If you're looking to explore the breathtaking landscapes of the Scottish cliffs, this tour along the Moray Firth Coast is an absolute must. Get ready to discover the charming towns of Portnockie and Cullen, the Troup Head Nature Reserve, and even indulge in a whisky distillery experience.

Description

We'll meet at number 15 Union Street in Inverness at the indicated time and leave behind the Highlands capital as we set off towards the Moray Firth, showcasing the wild beauty of Scotland.

Our first stop will be the historic village of Findhorn, located near the Moray Firth. Here, we'll stroll along its beach for a taste of Scotland's rugged coastal landscapes.

Next, we'll travel to Portknockie to see the natural arch known as Bow Fiddle Rock. Continuing our excursion, we'll head to Cullen, the birthplace of Cullen Skink soup, where you will have free time to explore and enjoy this specialty.

Afterward, we will go to the Troup Head Nature Reserve, home to seabirds such as puffins, to admire the cliffs along the Moray Firth coast.

Then, we will visit the Speyside whisky distillery to witness the production process and enjoy a whisky tasting. Before returning to Inverness, we will stop at Carrbridge, famous for its stone bridge, the oldest in the Highlands.

We will conclude the excursion after 12 hours of exploration filled with stunning sights and immersive experiences.

Puffin sightings

Puffins are unpredictable, so we can't promise a sighting. The chances depend on various natural and weather-related factors.

Itinerary Changes

In August and September, the tour itinerary will change, and we won't visit Troup Head. Instead, we will visit Spey Bay, a stunning coastal reserve with the largest shingle beach in Scotland, a great place to observe wildlife, including dolphins, and see Aberlour, a village in Speyside by the River Spey.
