Depart Inverness in the morning and begin your full-day tour with a trip to the ancient burial site of Clava Cairns. Explore this Bronze-Age graveyard that has survived 4 millennia.
Afterward, head to Culloden, one of the most important sites in Scottish history. Learn more about the 60-year series of uprisings that finally ended in a tumultuous battle in 1745. Explore the visitor center and pay tribute to those who lost their lives at the last ever battle fought on British soil.
