The Scottish Highlands, a rugged and enchanting region in the north of Scotland, is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and traditional culture. Towering mountains, deep glens, and sparkling lochs characterize this wild and untamed terrain, offering endless opportunities for outdoor exploration and adventure. Visitors can embark on scenic drives along the North Coast 500 route, hike through the majestic peaks of Ben Nevis or the Cairngorms, and cruise the mysterious waters of Loch Ness in search of the legendary monster. The Highlands are also steeped in history, with ancient castles, clan battlegrounds, and archaeological sites scattered throughout the landscape, telling tales of Scotland's turbulent past. This guide includes: - introductory note - places to visit (museums and cultural venues, open squares, and others) - photo spots Get to see more from my travels on my Instagram (@pedralexpereira) and Flickr (flickr.com/photos/pedralexpereira)

I travelled to the wonderful Isle of Skye in Scotland, visiting the Loch Ness and Inverness on the way, on a budget and without a car: pretty challenging but definitely doable if well optimised ! This is the general program, tried and true; - Day 1️⃣: stop at a castle on the famous Loch Ness and maybe spot Nessie ! - Day 2️⃣: a full day on the Isle of Skye, staying in Portree, with an adventure to the Old Man of Storr - Day 3️⃣: visiting Inverness on the way back This guide will also include: - how to go to the Isle of Skye, travelling from the south of Scotland (Edinburgh, Glasgow or Dundee) by bus - a place to stay at (which I personally tried) and other possible recommandations, and places to eat - made for students/travellers on a budget (around £170/person, and way less if you are under 22 and live in Scotland) - an interactive map with all the locations attached.
