A Guided Scotland Tour With Ferry & Isle of Skye

A true Scotland motorcycle tour: this guided round trip starts in the Düsseldorf area and takes you by ferry via Ijmuiden to Newcastle, straight into the Scottish Highlands. As an authentic Scotland round trip, you explore the east coast, the Malt Whisky Trail and the Isle of Skye on your own motorcycle. Via Glen Coe and Glasgow, a varied Highlands stage brings you back to the ferry at Ijmuiden. With a support vehicle, half board and an experienced tour guide, this onroad Scotland motorcycle tour is ideal for riders with good stamina.

Highlights

Isle of Skye Experience

On the Isle of Skye stage you ride past Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock and The Quiraing – spectacular views over coast and highland make this day a real high point of your journey through Scotland.

Mystical Loch Ness

The Loch Ness stage takes you along the famous loch past Fort Augustus and the Falls of Foyers. Between water and forest you feel the calm of the Scottish Highlands on every kilometre.

Glen Coe Adventure

The Glen Coe stage leads through a dramatic high valley that has served as a film backdrop. Steep cliffs, tight bends and wide valleys make this section one of the most striking of the whole round trip.

Malt Whisky Trail

On the Malt Whisky Trail section, the route runs through Cairngorms National Park to Dufftown. A stop at a distillery is just as much part of the day as winding country roads through gentle hills.

Eilean Donan Castle

The stages past Eilean Donan Castle bring you to one of Scotland's most photographed castles. It sits picturesquely at the meeting point of three lochs and is a must-stop on the way to the Isle of Skye.
