Orkney Islands - 2 Day Tour

Service Description

Your day starts after breakfast in Inverness and then we head north on a 3hr scenic adventure to the top of Scotland. There is a choice of ferry route depending on scheduling times. Lunchtime is usually spent either in John O Groats or Thurso. We then cross the Pentland Firth (sometimes passing clouds of Puffins - during their season between April and August) to Orkney. You are taken to prehistoric sites, historic sites and introduced to the islands' scenery and, perhaps, some wildlife. Day 2 - you will see and visit a combination of the following attractions - the famous naval base Scapa Flow, the Churchill Barriers, the Italian Chapel, the Orkney Winery, and in the city of Kirkwall - Highland Park Distillery, the Bishop's Palace, the Earl's Palace, and Saint Magnus Cathedral. The evening is spent in accommodation in Kirkwall giving you time to yourselves and perhaps the opportunity to experience some of the finest seafood in Scotland. NB: Price is for guide and vehicle only. Accommodation, food and admissions are not included in the price.
