Please Help! Itinerary 1 or 2?

Posted by on

Hi there,

I’m looking to book a group tour through the highlands and am trying to decide between two itineraries and am completely torn!

Option 1:

3nights/4days, all nights staying at a BnB in Broadford.

Day 1: Luss, Glen Coe, Ben Nevis, Glenfinnin.

Day 2: Full day Isle of Skye

Day 3: Full day Isle of Skye

Day 4: Eilean Donan Castle, Fort Augustus/Loch Ness, Cairngorms Park, Dunkeld.

Option 2:

4 nights/5 days. 2 nights BnB Inverness, 2 nights BnB Portree

Day 1: Pitlochry, Cairngorm, Clava Cairns, Culloden Moor

Day 2: Assynt/Ullapool, Achmelvich

Day 3: Loch Ness, Eilean Donan Castle, Sligachin

Day 4: Isle of Skye

Day 5: Glenfinnin, Ben Nevis, Glen Coe

Please, any help with my decision is appreciated. I’m so torn with which tour to book. I’ve never been to Scotland before so don’t have much info to go off of.

Thanks so much!

I would choose the first option which allows you time to explore Skye in some detail. Tour 2 is an awful lot of driving and you will see Scotland through the windows of a bus.

I agree with the previous comment: I think Option 1 is more attractive. Option 2 involves too much driving around for my taste.

If you were especially keen to visit Culloden Battlefield, then Option 2 might be tempting, but it is only part of a day along with 3 other destinations, so you wouldn't be there long enough to do it justice.
