We will also discover the beautiful places near our accommodation in Isle of Skye and will have time to explore before eating dinner at a local pub.
Day 2 includes a fantastic tour in Skye where we will visit the most iconic landmarks of the island. This will be the most exciting part of the tour as we spend plenty of time to absorb the true natural beauty of Skye with fantastic views and scenery! We will hike to the Old Man of Storr and we will take you to the exact locations filmed in Transformers 2, Prometheus and Harry Styles' song Sign of the Times. We will then journey to Lealt Falls where you will be amazed by the most magical gorge in Skye. This gorge was featured in Kanye West's album, Life of Pablo. You will also learn about the history and legends of Skye when we visit Kilt Rock, Mealt Falls, the historic Sligachan Bridge, River Sligachan, Loch Mealt, Loch Fada, Loch Leathan, stunning views overlooking the Cuillins (the highest peak in Skye) and the charming town of Portree, the Capital of Skye.
