Isle of Skye Tours

The Isle of Skye, often called “the Mist Isle,” is a captivating slice of Scotland that seems to have been plucked straight from the pages of a fairy tale. With its rugged mountains, dramatic coastlines, and shimmering lochs, it’s a place where nature reigns supreme, luring adventurers and dreamers alike.

Imagine wandering through the enchanting landscapes of the Quiraing, where steep cliffs and rolling hills evoke an otherworldly feel. Each step reveals stunning vistas that change with the light – sunrise paints the peaks gold, while the sunset bathes them in deep purples and blues. The air is fresh and invigorating, filled with the scent of heather and sea salt.

Also the iconic Old Man of Storr, a towering rock formation that watches over the land like a guardian. Legend has it that this giant was once a hard-working man who turned to stone, and now he stands as a testament to the island’s rich folklore. Hiking up to him rewards you with panoramic views that will take your breath away.

Skye is also dotted with charming villages, like Portree, where colorful houses line the harbor, reflecting in the crystal-clear waters.

Take your time at each stop, spend as long as you wish capturing the perfect photo. Davie will cater to your specific preferences – whether you want to focus more on nature, history or marvel in the gorgeous scenery the choice is yours.

Old Man of Storr 

The Old Man of Storr is a 55-metre-high basalt rock pinnacle that is the highest point on the Trotternish Ridge.

The walk is considered average difficulty, but it does have some steep terrain, rough stone steps and a muddy path on wet days. The weather can change quickly so it is important to dress in layers, watrproof jacket and sturdy walking boots.

The walk can take approximately 1/2 hours up and down again without stopping.

The panoramic views from the top are nothing short of breath-taking! And definitely worth the hike

The Fairy Pools

The Fairy Pools are among Skye’s best-known landmarks and are a series of small waterfalls and pools that flow down from the Cuillin Mountains.

The Pools are steeped in legend and folklore with many stories surrounding the pools and the fairies that are said to inhabit them. The pools are also said to be a gateway to the fairy realm, with many believing that the fairies use the pools to travel between the human world and their own.

Wear appropriate footwear as the trail can be muddy and slippery.

Dunvegan castle

Explore this ancient stronghold, home of the Macleod Clan for over 800 years and remains the home of the Clan chief.

The most intriguing item on display is the legendary “Fairy Flag” which the Macleods have twice used successfully at the Battle of Glendale and the Battle of Trumpan . According to legend the clan may use the flag only three times when they are in need.

The flag is now a bit tattered as various members of the Macleod Clan would cut off a piece for good luck when going off to war. 

Stroll through the beautiful gardens and delve into the rich history.
