Fairytale castle tour and highland cows

Good Morning Maxine!

Sue and I want to thank you so very much for  our tour With June last Friday!!  

We had a fabulous day. As you would know June is a treasure. She showed us many stunning viewpoints and had plenty of historical and cultural information for us. 

We enjoyed Dornoch, the farm and of course Dunrobin Castle. June was also accommodating and took us to Glenmorangie for a wee taste on the way back to the ship. 

Again, many thanks. We will certainly recommend you to anyone we know headed to Invergordon and will post a review on TripAdvisor

Best Regards,Neil Shoebridge, Australia

When booking your tour please choose carefully which castle you wish to visit. Either Cawdor, Urquhart or Dunrobin. You can visit one on your tour but when doing the Cawdor visit you will see Urquhart beside Loch Ness in the background, but you do not visit both.  Time does not allow.
