At 639 square miles (1,656 square kilometres), the Isle of Skye is the second-largest Island in Scotland after Lewis and Harris and boasts some of the most dramatic mountain and coastal scenery in the UK. The Island has been occupied since the Mesolithic period (7th millennium BC) by, variously, Celtic tribes including the Picts and the Gaels, Scandinavian Vikings and the powerful Norse-Gael clans of MacLeod and MacDonald.

Skye belonged to Norway until the Perth Treaty of 1266 transferred sovereignty to Scotland. Thereafter, the 18th-century Jacobite uprisings led to the breaking-up of the clan system and the subsequent ‘Clearances’ replaced entire communities with sheep farms. This involved forced emigrations to distant lands. Resident numbers declined from over 20,000 in the early 19th century to just under 9,000 by 1999. Today the population hovers around 10,000. The ancient Gaelic language is still spoken throughout the Island and all road signs are bilingual. The main industries are tourism, agriculture, fishing and whisky-distilling. The climate is mild, wet and windy - but when the sun shines, there is nowhere more beautiful on Earth. The abundant wildlife includes Golden Eagles, Sea Eagles and Red Deer.

Our Skye Tour Route

Kyle of Lochalsh

Our starting point on the mainland, Kyle is well connected as it has the train from Inverness and regular buses. We can even pick you up at the train station.

Broadford

The first big village you come to on Skye. Right by the sea side overlooking Broadford bay and the applecross hills.

Sligachan & the Cuillins

We stop at Sligachan which is as the base of the Cuillin Mountains. A perfect stop to get your camera out to capture these amazing views of the mountain range.

Portree

The capital of Skye. There is a lovely scenic harbour, busy with boats all day long. We will stop here for lunch, giving you time to look around the shops.

The Old Man of Storr

A massive rock pinnacle that dominates the views, the remnants of ancient landslips. This unique landscape has been used as a location for several films.

The Quiraing

The Quiraing is a spectacular series of rock pinnacles on the eastern side of the main spine of the Trotternish peninsula.

Uig & Fairy Glen

The ferry port that takes you to Harris and North Uist. The nearby Fairy Glen is a strange landscape of hillocks, apparently where the fairies live.
