Loch & Land Festival 17th - 26th October
Coos & Cruise
Combine two unforgettable Highland experiences in one: a Highland Coo Tour and a scenic Castle Cruise on Loch Ness. Enjoy views over Loch Ness and the warm welcome of Heather and Fiona—the iconic Highland Cows as you arrive at a local family croft. With their distinctive horns and shaggy coats, these gentle animals are a favourite among visitors. You’ll have the chance to hand-feed, pet, and photograph them, all while learning about life on a working croft that has been in the same family for eight generations!
Step aboard a small-group Castle Cruise for an intimate voyage on Loch Ness. With space for just 12 passengers aboard a comfortable 39-foot sports cruiser, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted views from both open and enclosed decks. Your expert skipper, Ali offers live commentary packed with science, history, and folklore. Cruise past Urquhart Castle, pause for perfect photo moments just offshore, and watch sonar scans of the loch’s mysterious depths in real time. Our Tours promise a rich, immersive encounter with Scotland’s wild heart—perfect for curious explorers and nature lovers alike.
