EXPEDITION HIGHLIGHTS
» Kayak on Loch Ness, and wander through the charming seaside town

“Geographically isolated, lashed by the North Atlantic, these brave outposts nurtured
an individuality and an independence that have lured adventurers and romantics for
centuries, from the ancient Celts to 19th-century poets, painters, and composers.”
