Day one started off departing from Edinburgh with a group of 36 other people at 8.30am. We chose to stay in the Smart City Hostel the night before, which was reasonably priced considering the Edinburgh Fringe and the Edinburgh Tattoo were both on, and close to the Haggis Adventures departure point on the Royal Mile.
Our first stop was Dunkeld Cathedral by the River Tay, followed by a trip to the Tomatin whisky distillery where we got to see where the whisky was made and to try a sample. It was interesting to learn how to drink whisky properly despite it not being something I would usually have.
Next we headed to Culloden Battlefield where we were told about the history of the place and treat to some accordion music by our guide Scot.After a stop for lunch in Aviemore, we drove to Loch Ness. By this time it had started to rain, but this didn’t matter as Scot showed us how to call upon Nessie. Unfortunately she didn’t raise her head, but it was fun nonetheless, and was another item ticked off my bucket list!
