From Skye: West Skye Tour -Neist Point, Castle, Coral Beach From Skye: North West Skye -Neist Point, Castle, Coral Beach

Discover the Isle of Skye on a private guided tour. Visit Dunvegan Castle, explore Neist Point Lighthouse, visit the beautiful Coral Beach, enjoy an optional whisky at Talisker Distillery + lots more.
Set off from the harbor town of Portree or have us collect you from your Skye Accommodation, and head to Dunvegan Castle, the ancient seat of the Clan MacLeod. Founded in the 13th century by the son of Norse chief Olaf the Black, it is still the home of the clan chief and is the longest continuously occupied castle in Scotland.

Tour the castle (entry fee not included) and its beautiful walled garden to learn about the dramatic escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie, saved from British troops by Flora MacDonald, and the legend of the 2000-year-old Fairy Flag.

Next, take a short drive on a spectacular single-track road to Coral Beach, a stunning stretch of white sand-like crushed coral. Its crystal-clear, azure blue waters are often compared to the turquoise seas of the Caribbean - just a bit chillier.

Drive through beautiful Glendale, which means the "fertile valley of river meadows", to reach remote Neist Point, the most westerly point of the island. This tour does not allow time for the full hike to the lighthouse but we make a short easy (but sometimes muddy!) walk to a clifftop location to get the classic view of the dramatic sea cliffs and iconic 1909 lighthouse. Neist Point is a great spot for viewing whales, dolphins, and basking sharks.

On the return, have the option of visiting some of Glendale's craft shops and artists, including Skye Weavers and Skye Silver. Then, travel down the beautiful west coast road via Loch Bracadale, and enjoy a dramatic panoramic views across to the spectacular Cuillin mountains and out to sea.

Travel to the beautiful village of Carbost, and Talisker Distillery visitor center and have an optional fireside dram of whisky (this is not a full tour).

Finally, stop off at the Old Bridge and the mythical river at Sligachan, for a surround view of the Cuillin mountains, before returning to Portree or your accommodation.

Why are we different? Your guide lives on Skye and is passionate and knowledgeable about the island. He can share stories, myths, and legends as well as give you insight into local ways of life. Your guide knows the roads of Skye like the back of his hand and can add in extra stops in quieter, lesser known spots. He uses his local knowledge to ensure all tours can be flexible and adaptable so if you want to make slight changes to the itinerary he will have lots of suggestions of other things to do.

Let us take out the stress of driving on single track roads. With Blue Skye Tours you'll be travelling in a comfortable, spacious 4x4, with leather seats, air conditioning and a panoramic roof for maximum views. All our tours are for private groups of up to 4 people so your guide and vehicle is yours for the day and you won't have to share the experience with anyone else.

Tours can be adapted to suit your mobility, fitness and interests.

All our tours are respectful of the fragile landscape and ecology of the island and "we will leave no trace" as we explore.
