Urquhart Castle

Our next destination will be Loch Ness where we will have the opportunity to join the cruise on the lake and visit the ruins of Urquhart Castle. This castle was an ancient fortress that experienced some of Scotland's great conflicts, from the Picts to the Jacobite Wars and the English invasion. It is undoubtedly a place with a lot of history, but also with a lot of magic. The ticket to the cruise trip and the entrance to Urquhart Castle is not included in the tour price.The price of the activities (a single price of £36 for adults and seniors, £26 for children 5-14 and infants, under 5, for free) includes both entrance tickets which cannot be purchased separately.
