Guidekin's take

Combine Isle of Skye and Loch Ness with a guided walk to Glenfinnan Viaduct in a small shared group of up to sixteen.

Coach transport and daily breakfast are included; castle admissions and the Loch Ness cruise cost extra, and a high level of fitness is required. 4.96 from 85 reviews at €657 per person for 3 days.

In our comparison: #19 of 70 in Scottish Highlands from Edinburgh, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
