Meeting and Pickup

Pickup point
Pickup details

We can collect from any hotel or accommodation in Inverness and surrounding area or also from the cruise ship port in Invergordon.For cruise ship passengers, this year the arrangements have changed and you will be required to take the shuttle bus out of the port. The shuttle will stop at Quay West, this is usually the first stop and is beside King Street. I will be waiting here for you and then we will have a short walk (around 200 yards) to reach my vehicle. I will drop you off at the main shuttle stop on returning to Invergordon so you can easily make your way back on the bus to the cruise ship.Please note that if you are arriving on a cruise ship your tour will be tailored to the time that the ship is due to depart. We will aim to be back at least one hour before the ship is scheduled to leave to ensure there are no issues with lateness.
