Loch Ness
Urquhart castle
Visit the historic Urquhart Castle as part of your private Loch Ness tour and discover one of the most dramatic locations on the shores of the loch. Perched on a rocky promontory overlooking Loch Ness, the castle has more than 1,000 years of history and played an important role in the struggles for power between the Scots, English and Lords of the Isles.
On a private tour, you can take your time exploring the atmospheric ruins, climb the Grant Tower for panoramic views and hear the stories behind this remarkable Highland landmark from your local driver-guide.
With a private itinerary, you can enjoy Urquhart Castle at your own pace and combine your visit with scenic stops around Loch Ness, creating a personalised experience rather than following a set group tour.
