UNCOVER THE SECRETS OF PORTREE
Guided tour of the "capital" of the Isle of Skye followed by a hike around Loch Portree...
Portree is the Isle of Skye's largest town, and also acts as the main hub of the island. Sitting on a natural harbor, with its quaint colored houses, let our guides take you for a wee wander with their stories and knowledge, before heading on a nice brisk trek along the coast, to the land of the Nicolson Clan.
We would like to point out that this is a medium-intensity tour and not suitable for those with a health condition, or if you are not used to physical walking. We do have another alternative at the bottom of this page.

Notes:
A more traditional tour of Portree is also possible - as a simpler alternative for those who would have less time ahead or for those who are looking for something less physical (this option is only available for private groups - for the same price and with a duration of 1h30-2h). If you are interested, please book a normal private tour and let me know after the booking.
