We conduct open canoe trips down the beautiful Kyle of Sutherland for cruise ships berthing in Invergordon and to other visitors to the area. The length of the trip is designed to fit in with the time the ship is in dock. This is usually a 6 km trip lasting three hours. The trips are suitable for beginners and are a relaxing and easy river journey in an area rich in wildlife, history and scenery. As part of our excursions we also take great pleasure in providing a home made picnic lunch. This comprises home made soup, home baked bread, salad from our garden and meats, fish and cheeses from local producers. We can also provide small group tours looking at historic sites connected to the Highland Clearances and tours looking for Sutherland wildlife. Our wildlife tours will take you to see some of the most iconic Scottish wildlife.

Starting from a little shed in the grounds of the croft several years ago and following in the footsteps of Highland crafts men and women before her, Claire Ferguson, founder of Scotsburn Croft began designing and making a range of fashion accessories. Her inspiration came from growing up in the Highlands of Scotland, an area full of beautiful landscapes, real family and community values and people. Today the Scotsburn Croft brand has grown to become the "home of the croft collection" showcasing a range of fashion accessories, ceramics and home furnishings all handmade and incorporating innovative designs with bold and breath-taking colours inspired by the Highland landscape. From Tweed Overnight Bags to Tartan accessories, handmade cushions and bespoke ceramics Scotsburn Croft can truly bring a "little piece of Scotland" to all its customers.

Are you visiting Inverness or Invergordon in the Scottish Highlands? I offer a customised tour for up to four people, going where you want to go, seeing the things you want to see and spending as much time in these places as you want. I am not like the tour buses which shove you on a coach going round at the pace of the slowest person. You control the tour - it's your day after all! If you are arriving at Invergordon on a cruise ship I can meet you outside the port and return you back at the gates or within the town centre for you to explorer the murials. Minimum tour duration is 3 or 4 hours depending where you are going. Why, I hear you ask? The attractions in the Scottish Highlands are quite wide apart and sometimes you may have an hour's drive to get there so please bear that in mind. Tours are charged in 2 categories, 1-4 passengers and 5-8 passengers*. Contact me for prices. I am happy to accept €uro and US$ (based on the Post Office's buy back rate on the day).
