1.Cawdor Castle, Inverness, Culloden, Outlander and Loch Ness Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 330 reviews · 6 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $206Our pick

This 6 to 8 hour shore excursion from Invergordon links Culloden Battlefield, Cawdor Castle, Inverness and Loch Ness by coach. Guides such as Mo, Emma, Seoris and June add local stories, while optional Outlander sites and a stop to see Highland cows bring extra character.

“This was basically a good tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. However, we started late due to the organizers’s disorganization. Due to a late start and road construction which the tour could do nothing about, our tour was cut short to get us back to the ship on time. Cawdor Castle was amazing and the Battle of Culloden was very interesting. It would have been nice to pass by Lick Ness.”

Our guide did a good job of time management so we could visit Culloden though we could have used more time there & less time at Cawdor castle.
