Cruise the legendary waters of Loch Ness and explore a historic Highland castle on this unforgettable coach and boat tour from Inverness. Departing directly from Inverness city centre bus station, you’ll enjoy a guided coach journey rich with stories of the area’s dramatic past. Then step aboard a scenic one way Loch Ness cruise, followed by a one-hour visit to the iconic ruins of Urquhart Castle. Castle entry is included, giving you time to explore one of Scotland’s most famous strongholds at your leisure. Once you have explored the ruins of Urquhart Castle, sit back and relax on your return coach journey to Inverness.
Seasonal addition (10 November 2025 – 29 March 2026 only): During this period, your adventure also includes admission to the Loch Ness Centre at Drumnadrochit. Allow extra time to uncover the myths, science and stories behind the world-famous loch - the overall tour duration is 4 hours on these dates. Outside this window, the tour operates as described above without the Loch Ness Centre visit.
Our onboard audio is bursting with fascinating facts and legends to tune into as you sail. And don’t forget to look out for Nessie, with a little help from our onboard sonar.
