    20 min

    Beautiful view to the sea and a very scenic landscape. Short comfort stop.

  3. John O'Groats

    30 min

Ziua 2 · Today is your chance to explore the modern and ancient wonders of this fantastic island

  1. Skara Brae

    1 h 30 min Intrarea inclusă

    Long before Stonehenge or even the Egyptian pyramids were built, Skara Brae was a thriving village. Step back 5,000 years in time to explore the best-preserved Neolithic settlement in Western Europe.

  2. Ring of Brodgar

    30 min

    One of the finest stone circles in the world. Dating back from 2,500 to 2,000 BC, the stone ring was built in a true circle, 104 metres wide and originally contained sixty megaliths; today only twenty-seven of these stones remain.

  3. Standing Stones of Stenness

    10 min

    Step back in time over 5000 years at what may be the earliest henge monument in the British Isles. The enormous Stones of Stenness are all that remains of a great stone circle on an ancient ceremonial site.

  4. Maeshowe Chambered Cairn

    1 h 30 min Intrarea inclusă

    The monumental chambered tomb of Maeshowe is simply the finest Neolithic building in NW Europe. Built around 5,000 years ago, it is a masterpiece of Neolithic design and stonework construction, not least for its use of massive individual stones. Viking crusaders broke into the cairn in the 12th century and carved graffiti runes on the walls of the main chamber. Maeshowe is part of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site, along with Skara Brae, the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness.

Overnight in Kirkwall, Orkney.

Ziua 3 · Kirkwall - Caithness and Sutherland - Inverness

    Take a ferry back to the mainland, travel through the history-soaked regions of Caithness and Sutherland.
