We travel to the far north of Scotland, taking advantage of the longer summer days and milder weather to experience the dramatic coastline of Caithness. Visits include the stunning Castle of Mey, much loved former home to HM the Queen Mother, and a day discovering some highlights of historic Orkney. Our base is the Pentland Hotel in the charming town of Thurso, overlooking the stunning Thurso Bay and Pentland Firth, with a rich history of fishing, trade and Norse influences stretching back to the time of the Vikings. A superb tour filled with breath-taking scenery and fascinating history!
