From Inverness: Loch Ness Small-Group Day Tour with Cruise｜United Kingdom

Discover the iconic Loch Ness on a guided day trip from Inverness. Admire the fantastic views of the Loch and learn about its legends and secrets as you explore the scenic surroundings.

Depart Inverness and follow the Caledonian Canal to the source of the River Ness. Head to the lesser-visited shoreline of Dores, located on the eastern side of the loch for a striking vista of Loch Ness and the Great Glen rift valley.

Just a short drive away is your next stop, the forest community of Foyers. Walk downhill through native pine trees to see the hidden-away Falls of Foyers. Admire the views of this stunning waterfall, which was a favorite spot for Robert Burns, widely regarded as Scotland's national poet.

Invigorated after a visit to the falls, continue south along single-track roads through a densely forested landscape. Arrive at Fort Augustus, where you can purchase lunch and take a picture of the boats coming in through the Caledonian Canal.

Next, you venture to Invermoriston, where you can take a short walk to an old summerhouse with views of the river Moriston. Throughout the adventure keep your eyes peeled for the monster or breath-taking vistas as we continue along the banks of Loch Ness.

Explore the grounds of Urquhart Castle, the setting for some of the most dramatic chapters in Scottish history. Get closer to the mystery on an hour-long cruise on Loch Ness, before returning to Inverness in the early evening.
