Great itinerary and views but poor planning - The Good: - Both the driver (Emma) and the guide (Ian) were great. Lots of info provided during the tour. - Itinerary was good. The drive was very scenic we travelled in a circle so no repeat scenery. - The bus was very comfortable, with big windows and air conditioning. Bad: - Tour’s starting point direction - the directions provided were not very clear. It sounded like the pickup point was right at the cruise port while in fact it is a short shuttle bus ride away. Only cruise ship organized tour buses are allowed in the cruise ship port. So allow yourself at least 15-20 minutes to reach the pickup point from the ship. - Tour scheduling - our tickets said 8 am but others had 8:30 am and 9 am. So we lost an hour waiting for everyone to gather at the pickup point. It was a waste of our limited time at the port. - Castle admission tickets - we received many emails before the tour advising us to buy our castle admission tickets in advance. However, the tickets we purchased via the tour company, did not scan at the gates. So we lost at least 10 minutes at the gates sorting it out. As a result we only had about 45 minutes in Cawdor castle and the gardens. It also didn’t work at Urquhart castle but we had more time there so it didn’t matter as much. - Because of the 1 hour delay starting the tour, we missed our distillery tour time and instead had 45 minutes to spend in the distillery restaurant/tasting room and the store. It was a nice space but the main point was the tour and it didn’t happen. - Again because of the initial 1 hour delay, we had no time to stop in Inverness.
